Papertrey July Blog Hop

Click here to go to the hop.
     Finally! Didn’t think I would get to play this time, but husband is off avoiding the inevitable home repairs, which means I can use this time to stampWinking smile.
hop inspire
            Papertrey used this photo for inspiration.  I can see my younger granddaughter in this room.  She is a true girly girl, right down to the pretty little boots!
Those are what inspired me in this photo, beside the gorgeous colors. The boots are priceless!

       I used the boots  and sentiment from PTI Green Thumb. I filled the boots with flowers from Garden Variety and echoed the colorful wall with Background Basics: Chevron Stripes. I used floss to make little French knots on the boots and a punch for the greenery. I embossed the frame for the sentiment with the Angled Labels Die Collection. Ribbon is Spring Moss Swiss Dot.

This theme is popular this month so I entered the card in the challenge at One Crazy Stamper as well. Their theme is Colors Of the Rainbow. It seems to fit.
Enjoy hopping through the beautiful cards, and don’t forget to leave a little note of appreciation to all the talented folks.

This is the first card I've seen using the little boots. The chevron rainbow stripes are the perfect background for the little bundle of flowers and boots. Very sweet and unique!!
