Time again for another PTI blog hop! For this month the challenge was to use DMC floss in our creation. I was thinking about that song, "Tie a Yellow Ribbon" and thought why not tie a pink ribbon and make bows for breast cancer awareness? And the DMC floss is just the right size to make ribbons for this PTI tree stamp. I used a kaleidacolor pad for the leaves, Fresh Greens, I think the multiple greens give it added interest. And I used DMC floss 605 and 603, braiding them together for the ribbon around the trunk and using the individual colors in the leaves. Thanks for looking and happy hopping!
In memory of my grandmother and my SIL.
Stamps: Papertrey Ink Through the Trees

Love the different color of your leaves,gives great dimension. The pink bowsare perfect.
Oh Peggysue, I LOVE the bows on that tree! So cheery and springy! Wish there were pretty green leaves and spring was all tied up in a bow around here...instead there is snow on the ground and ice on the driveway...eeek enough is enough!
Really lovely, Peggysue! A perfect memorial card and so beautifully done. Love all the little bows on the tree!
Awesome card! I love how you tied the ribbons on the tree and how you used different shades of green ink for the leaves.
Breast cancer ribbons in the tree--what an amazingly good idea, Peggysue! I'm going to put this one in my "Inspiration" file to remember your genius idea!
What a great idea. Several people I know who have successfully beaten breast cancer celebrate their 'all clear' this would be a great card to use to acknowledge it with them.
