My train of thought started with the new Embellish challenge to use text challenge, since I have been trying to make some book themed cards for a friend who sells children's books and she really liked this one from the other day, so I took a few color challenges and made a set, something I rarely do. Emily made this card the other week and I'd been wanting to try her idea of inking the impression plate. So I inked up the PTI Bookprint plate, embossed it and then die cut it out with Mat Stack 3 die. Here's a closer look at the individual cards.
This one uses the Embellish colors.
This one uses the Color Cue colors.
This one uses the ColourQ colors.
This one uses the Play Date Cafe colors and since I thought it was fairly somber, I added a sympathy sentiment for this week's PTI Make It Monday challenge.
Materials: PTI All Booked Up image, PTI Mat Stack 3 die, PTI Mat Stack 4 sentiment frame, PTI Mat Stack 2 sentiments, PTI Book Print impression plate, Versafine black ink, Tim Holtz Distress Antique Linen ink, Water color pencils, Core'dinations Sugar and Spice card stock, PTI kraft card stock
