PTI March 2018 Blog Hop

The 25th of the month means it's time for another Blog Hop at Papertrey Ink. It's also the day we fly home from New York City after a busy 5-day vacation with some of my husband's family. I'm off to get a haircut so I'm making this short. Here's the inspiration photo and then my card.

Papertrey January Blog Hop Challenge

Seems like it was just the 1st day of 2016, and here we are at the 25th of January already. Nichole challenged us here to create a project using this colorful inspiration photo.

I love the colors but the design was a bit intimidating. Just had to try the challenge though. Being in desperate need of sympathy cards, I went with the card below. The colors might be a bit bold for comfort, but I think the layered butterfly helps soften it some. At least I'm convinced.

Supplies: (all PTI unless noted)

Cardstock: Stamper's Rustic Cream

Ink: Tropical Teal and Orange Zest

Stamps: Brushed Off and Keep It Simple: Sympathy

Dies: Life Is Beautiful

Other: Clear Vellum, Micro Glue Dots and Orange Enamel Dot (stash)
