PTI Blog Hop- Green, White and Black

Hi Friends!  Its PTI blog hop day!  You can find all the details here on Nichole's blog.  This time it was a color/photo challenge featuring green, black and white.  I really like this color scheme.  Here is what I came up with:

I used New Leaf cardstock as the base.  I stamped the argyle pattern in New Leaf and black using PTI's A Little Argyle.  I added a strip of black and white polka dot (from the black and white pattern paper pack) cut with the medium scallop die.  Next comes a length of New Leaf twill ribbon.  I used a fillable frame on top and then followed with a sentiment from Waltzingmouse stamps.  The flower buttons are from Doodlebug.  Random bling from my stash.

Sunflower Birthday

Hey there! Happy Thursday! Today I have a little birthday card for you. The focal image is from PTI's Round and Round Anniversary set. The sentiment is from Giga Guidelines. The background is the new Argyle set. I stamped the background with lemon tart and chocolate. Sentiment is also in chocolate. Focal point is in spring moss and summer sunrise. There a bit of bitty boxes ripe avocado on the bottom. Two little dark chocolate buttons make up the center of the flowers. Everything below this is just random stuff so if you are just here for the card you might not want to read the rest...
I was scanning photos last night to share on Facebook. I love old photos, old letters, old anything... I have boxes full. Anyway I found one of my first pictures of me and my hubby....This was in my dorm room in 1993. We got married in 1995. I think I was 20 in this picture. I still have that shirt and I dont think it would go over my head anymore! LOL! And here we are now:
This is at his sister's wedding last December. Funny how you look a little different after 17 years!
