pretty in plaid

MAKE IT MONDAY

I used Papertrey Ink's super stripe set and a flower stem to stamp a coordinating plaid for my "two-toned" flowers.  The layout was inspired by this week's Mojo Monday challenge.

This was the best photo I could get of the two-toned flowers - they are lavendar on the bottom and blue on the top - not a dramatic contrast, but they are very pretty - I'm excited to try this technique again.

I haven't been feeling well for weeks, so I didn't get many Valentine projects put together :(  I still have TONS of ideas swimming around in my head, so I created this card for Papertrey Ink's current challenge . . .

Papertrey Ink's 6th Anniversary

Had I known there would be so MANY fun challenges going on during Papertrey Ink's celebration I would have been tempted to take the entire week off work, just so I could play along :)
