pti blog hop...live your bliss

well...
its been a while since I played along with the PTI blog hop

I took some time last night and decided to play along!


Here's my take
I used the gingham backgrounds and some flower dies and I misted a doily black


I guess this fits with the Moxie Fab gingham challenge too, LOL

Thanks for peekin!!

let the sunshine in...


Happy Friday!!!

Our challenge from Bella land was blue yellow and black


I have alwayas thought the blooms from mixed media flowers looked like a sun so I masked off most of it and used it as a sun this time.

I clear embossed love notes background and used some mists


Next week's challenge

I got this adorable memory box die at scrapfest and was itching to use it.

Probably the easiest card ever!!
