Wishes for PTI's New Blog

Hello friends,

Here's a card I made for the very first color challenge on the new Papertrey Ink Challenge Blog. I decided to play with an old, forgotten PTI product from my stash. 


Products used:
#papertreyink (Spring cutaway tags die, Tropical Teal ink & Huge Sentiments die), watercolor paper, watercolors, butter paper (for circular background) & Kraft cardstock

After die cutting the image, it was colored with watercolors. For the back of the die cut, a piece of butter paper left over from transferring the texture onto two pieces of cardstock was used. The butter paper piece was scrunched as much as possible, which gave it the appearance of an intricate network of fibers. It was ink blended on one side, then cut into a circle slightly smaller than the die cut. The uncolored side was glued to the back of the die cut, allowing the light teal color to show through. The Kraft die cut was adhered to the card base, followed by the watercolored image. The card was finished with a die cut sentiment and negatives from past projects in gold for the tiny flower centres.
