This is the last of the cards I made from the text paper that I put together for PTI's blog hop. The background paper was made from stamping a bunch of different sentiments for the Birthday Basics set. The embossed sentiment is also from Birthday Basics. The flowers are from Everyday Button Basics. I used some little primas and buttons for the flower portion. Small Basic Grey rhinestones are under the sentiment. Thanks for stopping by!

PTI Blog Hop Time!
Its blog hop time at Papertrey Ink! If you have never played before you can check out the rules here. The challenge this time was to use text. I dont have any text background stamps so I made my own! The first thing I did was make the background paper that I used on both cards. To make this I got out my Mixed Messages set, Birthday Basics Set, and Flower garden set. I took out all the Happy birthday related stamps and laid them out on a big grid block. Then I inked it up with dark chocolate and stamped all over a piece of Kraft cardstock. Next I went back and filled in any gaps with my tiny birthday stamps (mixed messages). Then I got out my tea dye ink and rubbed it all over. It was so quick and easy, you have got to try it! Now that I had the paper I went on to make some cards. (I have two here and one more I will put up tomorrow.)
In this first card I used New Leaf as the base. I mounted my homemade background paper on a piece of Enchanted Evening. I stamped the balloon strings from Bitty Button Basics in black noir on my background paper. Next I added buttons from my PTI vintage button collection. I added in three strips of twill in Enchanted Evening, Scarlet Jewel, and New Leaf.
For my second card I stamped the largest flower from In Bloom on white. I colored with my copics (the only time consuming part), I stamped the leaves on white and colored those. I cut out both and glued them down. I added a ribbon in scarlet jewel twill. I stamped a verse from Birthday Basics in Ripe Avocado on a scrap of Spring Moss. I also stamped a small leaf from In Bloom. The whole thing is mounted on a Scarlet Jewel base. Thanks for stopping by!! I hope you will come by again soon!
