Papertrey Ink's 11th Anniversary - Day One Challenge

Today I have a really quick post for the Day One celebration of Papertrey Ink's 11th Birthday.  All of the activities began yesterday and will lead up to the Anniversary Sale and the Release Night Party on February 15th at 8:00 Central Time.  There will be several challenges and activities this month so be sure to check out the blog each day all month long to participate. 

Yesterday's challenge is a sketch challenge and you can see all of the sketches over at the Papertrey Blog. There are 10 different sketches to choose from and I had a hard time choosing just one.  The link up to participate is also in the same post.  
   
I chose Lizzie's Sketch using the new Farmer's Market Florals with a Cover Plate and simple sentiment.  Cover Plate: Twist has been one of my favorites since I first discovered Papertrey Ink a little over 2 years ago.  It's no wonder with the very Art Deco inspired design.  


For my card, I cut two of the cover plates and glued them together so that it would be a bit sturdier.  I added that to the top folding card base for that beautiful White on White look.  I cut a few of each of the elements from the Farmer's Market Florals Dies and then stamped them with the coordinating stamps.  It's the first time I've used these and they are a bit tricky to line up but that is something that just comes with practice and I don't have too much spare time today.

In fact, I took the easy road by using a sentiment that was already stamped, heat embossed and laying on my desk. To make it coordinate with the floral elements and not get lost on the white cardstock, I swiped my Vintage Jadeite Ink pad across it to make the colors match.  I used Sweet Blush with Pale Peony and Berry Sorbet for the roses, Sweet Blush for the smaller flowers and Vintage Jadeite with a touch of New Leaf for the foliage.

Be sure to stop over to the Papertrey Ink Blog and check out all the beautiful projects.  The supplies I've used are linked below for your convenience (Affiliate Links may be used).
