I have missed the past several months, and am finally playing along with the PTI Blog Hop this month. With all the changes (departures) going on, I am wondering if this will be the last blog hop? I hope not, but just in case it is, I didn't want to miss it.
This month, we have this photo for our inspiration. I was immediately drawn to the pattern on the upper cake, and pulled out a very old set, Background Basics Random Stripes for my card.
I also used some older flower stamps, Beautiful Blooms II in colors inspired by the colors of the flowers in the inspiration photo.
Let's make it a PTI all the way post. My next card is for this week's Transformation Tuesday challenge.

| Original Card |
I wanted to take this card I made using Brushed Birds, and create a simple card using my new Warmer Together stamps, which looked to me like Brushed Penguins. I kept the design similar, and changed the animals and the colors.
Thanks for Visiting
