Just over a year ago, my sister introduced me to Papertrey Ink. I'm not trying to be dramatic, but I'm pretty sure my life changed that day. I remember looking at all the products and spending an entire day during my Christmas vacation watching a marathon of Make it Monday videos:) I remember making my first purchase soon after (I got Hello Sunshine). Fast forward 6 months later when I started this blog (July 2013), I remember asking my sister "What's a blog hop?" Hehehe...some time has passed and thank goodness I've learned a few things. I'm super-happy to join my first Papertrey Ink Blog Hop! Can I get a woot woot!
Our challenge was to use only shades of pink. I was inspired by the curves and ombre in the inspiration photos.
The sentiment is from Grand Ampersand, and yes I sang Always and Forever (original version by Heatwave) while embossing it.
This card called for a lot of masking, which I find oddly relaxing! I kinda changed course midway through making this -- from solid color curved sections to ombre within each curved section. If I were to do this again, I'd make all the sections like the three curves on top.
Can't wait to check out everyone else's pretty pink cards. Thanks for taking a look.
