PTI March 2018 Blog Hop

3/25/18
Our inspiration photo for the March Blog Hop at PTI is from
Martha Stewart...a large nest filled with Spring blooms! My
take on this photo started with a desire to craft a lattice planter
box. I was able to create this by using the Mix & Mat: Flourishes
diagonal die. I die-cut this from kraft CS and then used the cut-
outs to weave the lattice. Remember those placemats we used
to make in elementary school from strips of paper?! Well, at least
I did (and I am dating myself...). I framed the lattice work with a
rectangle frame by MFT and filled the planter box with Lilies and
Forget-Me-Nots (or at least that's what I think they look like).
Finished off by adding the little bee from Stemmed Statements
and a sentiment from Betsy's bloom & Grow. Now this is what I
call a PACKED card.    Happy Hopping !!
 Supplies: PTI Lilies of the Field, Mixed Bouquet, bloom & GROW (sentiment), Stemmed
Statements, Mix & Mat: Flourishes, PTI Dye Ink (Lovely Lady, Autumn Rose, Spring Rain,
Blueberry Sky, Stormy Sea, Green Parakeet, New Leaf), MFT Single Stitch Line Rectangle
Frame/Stitched Rectangle STAX 2, Distress Oxide Ink, Copic Sketch.
