It's week 3 for the Summer Card Class and, I'll be honest, I really wasn't excited about this weeks color combo. The color combos the last couple of weeks have been vibrant and scream 'summer'. This week the colors seem so muted--thank goodness for the pop of red!
I pulled out my PTI 'Little Bitty Bird' and the card kind of fell together. This is probably my very favorite PTI stamp set. I love the simple, rustic feel of the images and the font is a nice basic type.
Anyway, I interpreted this weeks colors to include PTI's Vintage Cream, Fine Linen, Kraft, Pure Poppy, and Dark Chocolate. The little birdies were cut from Pure Poppy felt with the Little Bitty Bird Die. I ran the Dark Chocolate cardstock through my Cuttlebug with the woodgrain impression plate (another favorite). Added a bit of Distressed Dots patterned paper, some Pure Poppy grosgrain ribbon, and little black rhinestones for the birdies eyes to complete the card.
Now that the card is finished, I think it might be one of my favorites. I'm truly enjoying this class and the color combos we're given. So happy I decided to participate. Thanks for looking!
Absolutely terrific! Love everything about it!
