PPA292 Thanks


Happy Monday, peeps!  Hope you had a great weekend!  I've got a sweet little thank you card for one of my customers, using the Pals Paper Arts sketch for this week:

PPA-292-Mar17

I hadn't used Flower Shop for a while, and I pulled out some pretty papers from the Pretty Petals stack in Mint Macaron and Basic Black:


I am not sure if I shouldn't have used two flowers of the same image, but I  went with these anyway! They were stamped in Basic Black and watercolored with Mint Macaron, then I mounted them on a circle of Very Vanilla that was embossed with the Perfect Polka Dots EF.  I also embossed the lower half of the card with the Honeycomb EF to complement the black and vanilla honeycomb DSP.  I added a little sentiment banner using Silhouettes & Script. 


I just love this color combination!  Thanks for popping by today and enjoy your day!

I've seen your posts several times, and love your style. My question I am curious if your husband has a family member who was a surgeon in the Pittsburgh area in the early 1960's? I had back surgery at 13, by a Dr who's last name was Pugliese. He was older then, maybe in his 50/60s. Anyway, his surgery gave me a long life of walking, when I might have spent it in a wheel chair. Just curious, thanks for sharing your art work. Hugs, Jessica

I like the colors and the arrangement of objects. The honeycomb background helps the flowers pop! Great job!

I see Pittsburgh area in comment above. I went to IUP in late 1960s.
