Papertrey Ink Aniversary Challenge, Part III

(This is my third post of the evening! Don't expect this to ever happen again! I certainly don't. :P)
Papertrey Ink (PTI) is celebrating their fourth anniversary with a great series of challenges! I do like their stamps -- so elegant and classy. I've yet to order from them though, I have to admit... I'm a little intimidated by the cross-border shipping. So when they offered a sheet of digital sentiments, and a prize to co-design and receive a stamp set, how could I resist? :P


For my third card, I decided to go with a 3"x3" gift card and the cute heart design from Lisa Johnson. Instead of the über-classic red, I decided to go with pinks and purples. I coloured my image with Sharpies, and picked two complimentary shades of cardstock for circles. Ah, that old rule of three. :P The trio are overlapped and popped over some Lilac twine from the Twinery. This could be a Valentine's card, but would also work as a little love card anytime one is called for. ♥

Supplies: white cardstock, fuchsia & purple cardstock, digital sentiment from Papertrey Ink, Sharpies, lilac Twinery twine, pop dot tape Pin It Now!

Ooooh, love the circles! The set of three looks so nicely balanced. Way to score on the "no shipping fee" downloads! ;)
