Create Along with Us June 2018


Create Along with Us is the monthly opportunity to CASE samples from the Papertrey Ink Design team that have inspired us during their release. 
This card by Kelly caught my eye. I loved how she used white on white and added gold in the sentiment. 


Using the summery images from the Some Like It Hot set I kept the styling clean. I embossed the sentiment from Penned Elegance in gold onto vellum and die cut it. 


All the elements are layered on the Mix and Mat: Pretty Brackets Die, which is adhered to foam tape. I only wish that I had cut three of the dies to adhere together in order to make it sturdier and more prominent. 

I have been doing some celebrating in the past week! My husband and I shared our 44th wedding anniversary, had our daughter and granddaughter with us for a couple days, and will celebrate my birthday tomorrow. 

Not much time left for stamping, but oh I've been having fun! Hope to get back to regular posting and commenting soon.

First off, Happy Birthday and Happy Anniversary Cindy...how exciting to celebrate both in one week! Your card is absolutely lovely!! I had my Some Like It Hot set pulled out to use until I saw the Botanical Bounty set cards yesterday, but definitely a great set to use to re-create from all this month's beauties!! Your blending on the flamingo and the flowers is SO pretty and I love your gold and vellum sentiment! Beautiful, BEAUTIFUL card!! :0)

Happy Belated Anniversary and Birthday, Cindy! Good thing Christmas is six months away. What a lovely card using Some Like It Hot with the shading in the flamingo, beautiful hibiscus and striking gold sentiment. So glad you got some quality time with your daughter and granddaughter!
