Papertrey July Blog Hop Challenge

Blog-hop-inspiration
When I saw this month's inspiration photo (above) and the PTI colours to the side of it I immediately knew I wanted to try colour-blocking. Maile Belles has made a couple of cards with this technique.( If you click on her name it takes you to her tutorial). This is my card:

I love the citrusy hues and the way the white embossed floral image pops against them. This card is for some wonderful friends celebrating their 10th wedding anniversary this week.
Thank you for your kind comments and enjoy the rest of the blog hop.
Supplies used:
Inks: versamark,versafine spanish moss
Cardstock: PTI summer sunrise, harvest gold, melon berry, berry sorbet, vintage cream
Stamps: PTI fillable frames #4, hero arts flower swirl vine
Dies: PTI  fillable frames #4
