I'm back for a minute today to share a little bright, happy, sweet something with you. Have you heard of Papertrey Ink's Stamp-a-faire event?
Beginning July 21st, Papertrey Ink will be hosting an online stamping event with tutorials and classes taught by members of the design team with so much creativity and fun waiting to be had. An exclusive stamp set has been created for this event and everyone that places an order of $100 or more on Stamp-a-faire day (July 21) will receive this gorgeous set free of charge! The card I've created for you today uses this sweet new set. It's so much fun to use as it can be used in a two-step process if desired.
I stamped the bottom layer of the flower using Raspberry Fizz ink and then stamped the coordinating top layer in a darker color, such as Plum Pudding and Scarlet Jewel. The top layer makes the flower come to life and adds so much depth.
Here's a peek at the whole set...isn't it beautiful?
You can read more about the Stamp-a-faire event on the Papertrey Ink blog.
Off to pack a picnic and head out to the park.
See you soon!

So cute! Love the bow! Hope you had a fun picnic. It was such a beautiful day today that my son and I went out and spent some time together.

I like the bright-yet-still-vintage look (need vintage always be pale? I don't think so). A lovely, lovely card.
