July 2014 Blog Hop Challenge ~ Card 2

Blog-hop-logo

July Blog Hop Inspiration

First Nichole commented about the shabby mint background. We do not have that color in out PTI supplies  I mixed inks and made my own. It is not a perfect match but it is close enough for me. 
It made enough to make the background panels for all of the cards I made :)


This one was inspired by the embroidery. I am not sure why but Button Boutique reminds me of french knot embroidery. I covered all of the holes with sequins.
A Martha Stewart butterfly punch just added to the look!


Thank you for looking a t my blog!
