Chairs



Welcome to another PTI blog hop. This month's theme is to make a card using a technique you've learned from a fellow blogger. I decided to use the same technique I used from last month's PTI's hop, which is Karen Baker's grid background tutorial, click here to read all the details. I was going to add another layer to the card to make it an obvious background, but ended up just adding a paper pierced chair. I've used the colors from the latest Embellish challenge, which also requires background stamping. This week's Wee Memories Challenge is CAS and I love the graphic look of this card.

Materials: PTI On My Couch chair stamps, Versacolor black ink, Studio G grey ink, black and yellow card stock, Sharpie black marker
