Make it Monday

Hello again everyone.  Back again for my SECOND blog post (ever).  Still pretty excited, as you can probably tell.  

It's been a while since I've been able to actually watch the PTI Make it Monday video and make and post a card during the appropriate week, so I am doubly excited about this post.

This week's Make it Monday is all about 'decreasing apertures'.  You can read all about it here.  I love this technique because it looks so cool AND has such a fancy name.  I made a get well card using the little Tea Cup from Tea for Two Additions.






Supplied Used (all PTI unless otherwise noted):
Stamps:  Tea for Two Additions,  Turning a New Leaf, Mixed Messages, All Night Media Woodgrain
Paper:   Sweet Blush, Scarlet Jewel, Aqua Mist, Kraft
Dies:  Tea for Two Additions, Fillable Frame #10, Mat Stack #5, Tiny Tags, Quickutz Scallop Border Die

Thanks for visiting.

    This is such a great card, love the woodgrain on the middle layer and the teacup popped up instead of flat stamped. Very nice!
