Papertrey Ink's March 2016 Blog Hop Challenge

Good morning!  It's the 25th of the month and you know what that means...time for Papertrey Ink's Monthly Blog Hop Challenge.  I can't wait to see what everyone creates.  This month's photos were truly interesting and inspirational.  What do you think?


I fell in love those bright, beautiful colors propped against that smoky backdrop. Here's my take on the challenge:


I weathered my heart to give it that smoky effect...


The flowers were stamped in Summer Sunrise, Bright Buttercup, Pure Poppy, New Leaf, and Orange Zest.


I used PTI's Stitches and Swirls and Solid Stitches and Swirls to create the embroidered look.


Such a fun challenge!


Thanks for stopping by. I appreciate you!

    I would never think to use a grey heart like this but it really works against those bright and cheery colors! Lovely!

    What a fun hop and so much inspiration! Never saw so many cards incorporating gray before now. I'm sure we'll be adding that on future ones. Your colorful Stitches and Swirls really pop and love your "weathered" heart.
