PTI Blog Hop, Jan 2010 Edition


Hello, all!  I hope you are enjoying the blog hop so far. I rarely decorate the insides of my cards, so this was a challenge for me!




I used the Honey Bee and Around & About sets to make a thank you card. The card has white flowers stamped on a Lemon Tart background, so I reversed this for the envelope, stamping Lemon Tart on the white envelope.



For the inside I adhered a scrap of Lemon Tart and a small bee stamped on Soft Stone.  This will give me just enough room to sign my name!   Thanks for visiting.

Supplies:
Cardstock: PTI Soft Stone. Lemon Tart, Smokey Shadow
Ink: PTI Fresh Snow, Smokey Shadow, Lemon Tart
Stamps: PTI Honey Bee, Around and About, Little Lady
