I took a couple of things from the inspiration photo besides the COLOR. I used my Scattered Showers umbrella, paper pieced it and added the pearls.
When I saw the POSTCARD image, I knew I wanted to finally use my Postmarks set from PTI. Do you spot any other of the Postmarks stamps here? I used the word POSTCARD, the wavy lines, and Par Avion stamps and just randomly stamped them in Haystack Palette ink. It blended in so well to this pattern paper!
The next photo shows the tiny tag which was stamped in BB: Newsprint and then the tiny images (FOR YOU and butterfly image) from Postmarks.

My good blog friend, Suzanne whom I got to meet this spring, is hosting this week's challenge over at the Papertrey Paper Dolls blog. Her challenge: pattern paper! Not just for one thing.......the WHOLE card except for the base! Well, on my card I succeeded until I added the tiny tag but then I stamped my own text, does that count as pattern paper?? LOL Thanks Suzanne for such a great challenge....Gave me a chance to use my new papers!!! We are heading out to our nephew's graduation after I get off work tomorrow for the weekend. So everyone---HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!
