What I Do Instead of Laundry

Just playing around with what fits in Mega Gracious Vases.  I like these posies from PTI's Daydreamer.

What happens when 20 women gather in one place for 12 hours?  Lots of talking, laughing and eating, and a little bit of crafting--but you wouldn't know it by all the luggage that was brought!  Here is my one and only Stamp-A-Faire completed card, and it didn't even follow any challenges.  Ah well, it was a fabulous day with friends anyway! Paper: PTI White, Pure Poppy Ink: PTI Pure Poppy, Spring Rain, Memento Tuxedo black Stamps: PTI Fabulous Frames, Fillable Frames Sentiments, Star Prints Other: PTI Fab Frame dies, Simple Stripes IP

Here's the inspiration photo for Papertrey's July Blog Hop: Isn't this picture beautiful?  Love those colors together. I die cut one of the new Mega Gracious Vases out of vellum, then used it as a stencil template for the vase on the card.  I masked the bottom of the rose and sponged Berry Sorbet ink.  I don't own Simply Chartreuse, so I used New Leaf and Spring Moss instead.  Enjoy!
