Papertrey January Blog Hop Challenge

 

I'm glad to have the chance to enter this month's PTI blog hop. The challenge is to use an un-inked stamp set. Ha! Noooo problem! Lots of choices for that here!

One set that hasn't seen ink is the Outline Alphabet. Another is All About You Additions. I used both of them on this card.


Using MFT's Textile Rectangle Frame Die-namics die and a Petite Oval Nestabilities die I made a frame from red glitter card stock. Then I stamped the sentiment, using the Outlines Alphabet, colored it with Copic markers and framed it. The flourishes are from Mat Stack 1 collection, and the "You" is from All About You Additions. The scalloped border was cut with PTI's Medium Scalloped Border die.

Thanks so much for stopping by! If you got here on your own, be sure to head on over to Nichol's blog to see who else is playing!

~Supplies~
Stamps: Outlines Alphabet, All About You Additions, Mat Stack 1 Collection (PTI)
Paper: Stamper's Select White, True Black (PTI); red glitter card stock (craft store); Crush 6 x 6 pad (Bo Bunny)
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Accessories/tools: Cuttlebug (Provocraft); Textile Rectangle Die-namics die (MFT); Petite Oval Nestabilities die (Spellbinders); Medium Scalloped Border die (PTI); ribbon, red cord, rhinestones, pop dots (craft store), bird punch (Martha Stewart); Copic markers
