Blessed, Grateful, Thankful

This week customers are invited to play along with the Papertrey Ink designers during their August release week. It probably comes as no surprise that I already have my eye on some things. This is actually the first time I've played along with their invitation to Create Along With Us.

I was inspired by the always fabulous Betsy Veldman with this beautiful card.

And here is mine:

I used two of the dies from the Mix & Mat: Pinked Edge set to create the leafy cutout from white linen cardstock and the embossed edge around it. I backed it with patterned paper from the Bitty Big: Soft Stone Collection paper pack and then stamped the sentiment from the Inspired: Blessed Mini stamp set using Stormy Sea ink. The word was cut out using the Inspired: Blessed Die from two layers of Stormy Sea cardstock. The panel was then added to a Stormy Sea card base and I added a few Rainstones to give it a bit more shine and texture.
