Paper Trey Ink is celebrating their 9th Anniversary -- Their's is one of the first stamp companies I fell in love with.
For their first challenge with the new release we were asked to pick a color palette to use on our card.
It was so hard to choose, but one I fell in love with is Lexi Daly's colors.
I also used the sketch from Always Playing with Paper Challenge
And of course the colors from Lexi's palette.
All the stamps and paper are from PTI. I stamped the balloons first with white pigment ink, then stamped over them with dye inks. There was a bit of masking to get the desired effect. I put some Wink of Stella over the balloons (which is very pretty IRL), and some sequins and done.
I am also putting this into 30 Day Coloring Challenge . Now I don't get to color and play with my cards often enough. Work takes a lot of time -- then there is the usual housework, and hubby and family time. But . . . I had another snow day today (one on Friday too) so it was awesome having some extra craft time. And I even baked cookies today! Woo Hoo!
This will also go into the Addicted to Stamps & More Challenge - for CAS
It is still snowing a bit. Perhaps we'll have a delayed opening tomorrow.
I hope you are having a good day. Thank you for looking and your comments.
Such a lovely card, love these balloons. It is always great to stamp with white followed by dye inks, I usually use color pencils to add colors later. Thanks for joining us at ATSM.
