Happy Sunday....today was a nice and quiet day, did some sewing for a couple of friends, made a triple layer chocolate cake for Ashleigh's birthday tomorrow and threw in one card for two challenges. I loved the colors from this week's
ColourQ challenge so I thought I would use them for this week's
PTI MIM card layering dye and pigment inks. I have not played in a while, but I loved the technique they were featuring, so I gave it a try. Since I was making a birthday card I thought it would be fun to use sheet music for my background stamp, I love the way it turned out. Thank you so much for stopping by....have a wonderful week.

ReplyDeleteWowzer--wish I could have been invited to the party! You are quite the cook & baker! Would you believe I looked at the Snowflake Flurries set, but put it back & wondered if it would work to use music for the pigment ink stamping, but didn't try it. Now I know it work! Your card is one of the best in the hop, Kim!

ReplyDeletesuch a fun card....yummy cake too.
ReplyDeleteSnowflake flurries is one of my favorite sets. Love how you used these colors with this set so they don't look like snowflakes. Nicely done.
