Just love seeing all that color, so I followed suit. After trying various ideas, I settled on this Wplus9 stamp set called Quilt Prints and spent a happy afternoon finding ink colors to approximate those above. Most of them are Hero Arts, but there are a couple distress inks represented too. Here's my card:
After finishing the inking, I trimmed my panel, ran it through a houndstooth embossing folder, and then framed it in grey before adding it to my card. I thought this sweet sentiment from Ali Edwards was a perfect match.
