Papertrey Ink April Blog Hop

I wasn't quite sure what I was going to do for Papertrey Ink's April 2016 Blog Hop this month.  I usually try to translate the photo so literally to my card, but I didn't think that would be so great for this one. After reading Nichole's ideas on how to approach it I decided to focus on the layers in the photo. Here's the inspiration photo.


And here's my card...




I stamped the leaf and stem from PTI's Fall Florals from dark to light with Scarlet Jewel, Pure Poppy, Berry Sorbet, Melon Berry and Sweet Blush. I used Kraft ink for the floral circles and Simply Chartreuse on top of the Kraft.  The hello is from Bloomin Cute.  I love the font used for these phrases! I didn't have quite the right color of twine, so I colored a plain one with Copic markers. 

I can't wait to see what everyone else comes up with!
Thanks for coming by to take a look!
Judi
