OSAT January Blog Hop - Purses Poppies and Paris ~ Rick Adkins

Hello and welcome to my blog and the first OSAT Blog Hop of the year. Today's hop is going to be a fun one, and we have some great things to share with you. This month's theme was Purses Poppies and Paris. I decided to showcase some of each of the items mentioned today. It took me a little bit to decided on what I wanted to focus on and have a little play. I finally decided to go with some of all the three listed. Here's a look at my projects.

Tips & Tricks:

I started out by designing my card. I pulled all the colors for my projects from the Parisian Blossoms Specialty Designer Series Paper. I used the designer series paper as the tie together for both projects. I used Pool Party as the my base color for both projects. For my card i stamped the Eiffel Tower Image in Pool Party and used the matching die to cut it out. I added some poppies that I die cut from Petal Pink and Cherry Cobbler cardstock. I then layered them behind and in front of this image. I added Champagne foil accents in both the poppies and the sentiment.

For the purse I used the All Dressed Up Dies and cut it from the Designer Series Paper. I added Pool Party and Champagne Foil accents to tie both in. I added the Amour sentiment to a small whisper white piece of cardstock and popped it up with mini dimensionals.
