HA/PTI Stamp Challenge Day 3

Hello, All! And welcome to day 3 of the HA/PTI Stamp Challenge with Jennifer McGuire!

Did you see her card yesterday?! It is simply stunning, I love those colors and how she stretched out the tree trunk. Genius! That's why I/we love that girl!

For today's challenge here is what we are working with... Hero Arts' Music Background & Papertrey Ink's All About You. Here is what I came up with...
So, I couldn't help but sneak in one of the frame images from PTI's Framed set as well. Stamped the frame in True Black onto the center of a Kraft card base. Masked the frame off (using a large Post It Note), stamped the Music Background image in Versamark Ink and then removed the mask.
Onto half of a Mat Stack #4 die cut I stamped the "You" in Wild Honey Distress ink, layered the rest of the sentiment in True Black and then attached it to the card base with dimensional adhesive. Stamped the leaf trio three times in Shabby Shutter Distress ink (which, by the way, is a great match for Papertrey Ink's Spring Moss), cut out and attached to either side of the sentiment. Wrapped with Fine Linen bitty dots satin ribbon and embellished with True Black buttons and twine.

Hope you like it! Now be sure to see what fabulous creation Jennifer has up her sleeve this time. She never ceases to amaze me!

Hope you all have a wonderful Friday!
