Grunge what?

This is what I thought of this set when we first saw sneak peeks of this new Grunge Me set from PTI.  Well, guess what?  This was the first set that I inked up when I opened up my new goodies!  Take a peek:



Ok, I have to confess too, that I didn't want Maile's Modern Basics set and after using just this one image from Grunge Me, has me sold.  The possibilities are ENDLESS!  I will definitely be ordering that with my next order!



I had fun making this one so I made another in a different color palette!  The middle "splat" image was stamped "off" once and then stamped in the center. 



Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope each of you have a wonderful Easter weekend!!

Amy......This is just so awesome!!! I hope you don't mind if I CASE it......I love that it is completely able to be mailed w/ no embellishments to worry about. Great job on this one. I broke out my Chevron Stripes first. ;-)

Got this set on a whim...
last minute cart addition.
When I got it yesterday could not believe I almost passed it up...can't wait to ink it!
But I thought the same thing with Maile's first set...
"Not me...not interested"...
now it's going to have to come to my house too! :)
Love what you did with this.
Love the colors...how you mixed it up with 2 color combos.
Fabby!

You know I wasn't sold yet on that grunge set, but WOW!!!, you totally changed my mind. I love this combo, the colours too. Great to see the different look just by changing the colours. :)

Jen Adcock said...

Who knew Grunge could be chic, mod and totally cute? Not me. Up until now it was only surfer/skater dude and totally commercial. Blech. But I absolutely love your pretty, on trend card. Gawjus and totally inspiring!

Lee Anne said...

I love that you did these in 2 different color combos! Beautiful cards. Love them!

Diane Jaquay said...

Happy Easter to you and your family!

Oh Amy, you are so clever. This is such a well-executed card. The LO is perfect. I really like the off-set look.

You found a way to make grunge look good LOL! Caute!

Can you believe my order arrived late Friday and it's still sitting in the box? Now that Easter weekend is over it's time to put my little one down and get my goodies put away!

OOOh I really love this one! Can't wait to get my set.
