Today I want to share a card that I made with the PaperTrey Ink Anniversary Set, Simple Little Things. Basically, if you purchased twelve different PTI sets in the first year, you were eligible to receive this set for free! It's a useful and lovely collection of patterned stamps and sentiments that I am sure I will use over and over.
I made this card as a serious illness or sympathy card. For the base, I stamped the "may you find peace" sentiment repeatedly in Aqua Mist ink on Poison Ivory cardstock, finishing the pattern with one Pearlescent Chocolate Brilliance-inked sentiment.
After stamping the repeating pattern in chocolate ink on Aqua Mist cardstock, I topstitched around the Aqua and Ivory layers, matted with Prism Birchtone Dark cardstock. (Birchtone Dark is my only brown cardstock that does not have a reddish cast--useful at times!) Next I added an A Muse micro dot twinkle sticker to the center of each pattern, then dotted some White Opal Liquid Pearls on the remaining four dots in each pattern. (I can't remember where I ordered the brown satin ribbon--sad because I love it!) I used just a light sponging of Antique Linen Distress ink to the edges for a slightly vintage feel.
If you'd like to check out more pieces made with the Simple Little Things set, see this gallery. Thanks for visiting!
