PTI August Blog Hop







This is the inspiration photo for the August PTI Blog Hop. I just loved the vintage suitcase with the Damask lining, the books, and the pretty pink flowers. Here is what I came up with:













Stamps: All booked up, PTI; linen background, SU!; Fleur de Lis, Stampabilities.


Ink: old olive, SU!; london fog, rose bud, tuxedo black, Memento



Paper: ivory, and old olive, SU!; Hibiscus burst, PTI



Embellishments: twill tape , JoAnn Fabrics.


Image colored with Copic markers.



Let me know what you think. Have fun getting inspirations from everyone participating.









Here is my custom ribbon (wanted it to mimic the ribbon around the jar). I stamped Fleur de Lis, Stampabilities.
