Papertrey Ink March blog hop background paper challenge


Welcome to my creations for the March Papertrey Ink blog hop! I had sooooo much fun making these background papers! I was so excited when I saw the challenge posted. 

I have some Basic Grey Sugared paper that I thought would be fun to recreate, especially when I pulled out my Papertrey Ink Green Thumb stamp set! I think the large poofy flower stamp from that set almost perfectly matches the flower in the BG paper! I made it in three different shades, would have made more combinations, but I ran out of time! I took a photo of all four papers together so you can see the similarity. Tell me what you think and which color combination you like best!

For all of them, I used the swirl from Papertrey Ink Silent Night and the flower poofs from the Green Thumb set. Colors and further descriptions of the PTI ink and paper I used are in the individual posts below. Please take a look and let me know what you think! Thanks for visiting!

My favorite is, All of them. That counts, doesn't it? They all look so unique, as each one sets its own tone.

I like the pink & red best. The swirl is cool.

PeggySue, these are all wonderful! I think my favorite (can I only pick one?), though, would be the rose colored one in the back. I think it's a combo of the color hue and the swirls. Just LOVELY! I'm so impressed you made these!
