This is my first ever challenge for Papertrey Ink. My friends Farley and Nancy and I have recently become enamored of this company, their stamps and dies. Haven't yet moved on to the paper and ink. There's still time.
Anyway, I don't yet own much of their product so I was somewhat limited in how I could meet the challenge. I chose the sentiment from the Year of Flowers Sweet Peas set and the Triangle cover plate. The papers used were from the We R Memory Keepers Travel Light stack which were literally scraps still left on my work surface from a layout I finished last night. The solid colored cardstock is from my POPs stash of Club Scrap paper. The sample card by Dawn McVey used some Mr. Huey's Spray Mist on the card base. I had an epic fail on that technique by using Ranger Distress Stains. They didn't quite create the spots I wanted and I was in too much of a hurry to do it over. It is what it is but I'm happy to finally be taking part in Papertrey's Make It Monday challenge. Thanks for looking.
