I also received the new Library Ledger paper in my order, and it's so beautiful, I needed to use it on this card! I paper pieced the rose (many layers of paper piecing!), and used my new PTI Tea Dye Duo ink to give the card more of a vintage feel. The new pads were very very juicy, don't know if they're supposed to be like that, but the ink went on a bit more heavily than I would have liked. I'm still happy though with the way this card turned out :)
Here's a side view, you can get a better idea from this photo how the rose is layered.
I LOVE this new stamp set, and I'm happy it contained a wedding sentiment because I need to make several cards for upcoming weddings I'll be attending.
Stamps: PTI Year of the Flower: Roses
Paper: PTI Vintage Cream and Aqua Mist card stock, PTI Library Ledger
Ink: PTI black, Tea Dye Duo
Ribbon:
Misc: Spellbinder fancy label die

This is a really pretty wedding card and I love the paper piecing layers on the rose. I think I am going to get this set just for the wedding sentiment. The rose will be a bonus!

ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful. How lucky to get your order! Love the rose and I will be CASING it! The tea dye is juicy. But I find is that the color when dry is much lighter from what you first see when applying it. A very pretty card!

Beautiful, Diane! I didn't order the Ledger paper pack. Seeing what you did with it is making me regret my decision! You make such beautiful cards!
ReplyDeleteOh Diane, be still my heart. Look at all the amazing layers on the rose! Incredible! And the BG is so cool with the mix of PP. I've been through 3 sets of tea dye duos already, and I have to admit that I like them better when they aren't so new, and full of ink!
ReplyDeleteWow, that flower is amazing! The prettiest paper piecing I've seen! This is absolutely gorgeous!!
