Papertrey Ink 5th Anniversary Contest: Day 2

I'm sure the whole world knows. Well, the whole stamping world at least... Papertrey Ink is celebrating its 5th Anniversary this month and is giving away some amazing prizes.

Today's challenge was to create a card using one of the printable freebies designed by the Papertrey Ink designers. I chose Dawn's printable as I loved the font. I'm a sucker for pretty fonts which made it an obvious choice.

Here's what I created.


And a little detail.


Supplies: Cardstock: Papertrey Ink (Raspberry Fizz) | Patterned Paper: Echo Park (Country Drive) | Dies: Papertrey Ink (Limitless Layers, Mat Stack 4, Buttoned Up) | Lace: Local craftstore Spotlight | Ribbon: Vandoros | Ink: Brilliance (Moonlight White) | Twine: The Twinery

I initially tried to keep the card a bit a more ton-sur-ton, but felt it needed a good splash of colour. Echo Park's Country Drive is great for this as it's got vibrant colours and great geometric patterns that work so well together. It really fires up the Raspberry Fizz even more (if that is even possible).

It's nice to see you all again.
