I loved the inspiration photo for this month's PTI Blog Hop. You can play along by going here. The contrast is striking and oh so bold!! Can you imagine the kitchen that this would set in??? Country Gorgeous I'm telling you.
I thought I would try to emulate the colors and bold feeling. This was also perfect for the current MIM - mixing pattern paper.
Can you say LOVE the new Simple Stripes Impression plate!!!! I will use this so much! Using dies to cut the sentiment is just fun.
Here is a pic of the supplies I used. Seemed simpler than listing everything out!! The paper is pb&j from Crate Paper.
Happy Hopping Everyone!! ~Rhonda
