Papertrey Ink Blog Hop

Hello everyone,

Yay, its the first day of British Summer Time and we start to have light evenings again! I hope you are enjoying the glorious spring weather. Our eldest son is running in one of the Sports Relief runs today so we are off to cheer him on but before we go its time for the PTI March Blog Hop

Blog-hop-logo
and this time the inspiration picture invited us to use yellow and aqua colours in a project.

Blog hop inspiration

I love this colour combination which evokes thoughts of spring and new life to me, so I decided to make a new baby card with the Bundle of Love stamp set and the Framed Out 1 stamps and die

I also wanted to make some egg shaped tags for Easter and cut some egg shapes on my Silhouette Cameo before stamping them with a variety of tiny PTI stamps in yellow and aqua mist. I glued each pair back to back with some yellow gingham ribbon sandwiched between them at the top:-

These tags will hang on a little Easter tree along with some decorations and will be attached to any little chocolate treats that will be given over the Easter Holiday


Thanks for looking in and enjoy all the wonderful inspiration on the hop!
Hugs
