May PTI blog hop

This month's blog hop had some interesting colors and elements that gave me so many ideas.  I have tried to water color before without much success.  I had to make a special birthday card this past weekend and thought to incorporate the color scheme from the blog hop inspirational photo along with trying my hand once again at watercoloring.
Here is the photo:

I really liked the blue green leaves with all the pretty peach and pink flowers.

Here is what I have come up with.  I am just loving making matching envelopes lately.

The card design was lifted from DT member Michelle.  Thanks Michelle!

Supplies:

Papertrey Ink-
Peonies on Parade stamps
Mix & Mat Herringbone die
Happy birthday die

MFT watercolor wash paper for HB die
Simon Says Stamp - Sending flowers for envelope happy mail box

May Papertrey Ink Create with Us challenge

Happy sunny Sunday.

I needed a birthday card for an Aunt who is turning 97 in a week.  I just loved my new Ivy & Bloom stamp & die set.  The design team made some beautiful cards but I choose to use the one made by Laurie Schmidlin.  You can see her work here and you can join the Create with us challenge here.

Here is what Laurie made

And here is my version

Of course I had to make a matching envelope :)
