Quilting Thank You....

I have the original PTI Quilter's Sampler, but then a little while later they came out with Quilter's Sampler Additions and I knew I would have to have it because it had Sunbonnet Sue and Overall Bill and they are two of my favorite quilt patterns. I made this card as a thank you for my cousin's mother-in-law. She sent cute pillowcases down for the boys for Christmas that she had made and she is also a quilter.

The card base is barely banana again and it is layered with Pink Pirouette (my favorite pink at this moment). I stamped the sunbonnet sue's in pallette noir black ink and then colored them with my copics. I then punched the blue squares out using my 3/4" square punch from PTI. I bought this punch because it is the exact size of the quilt blocks, personally, I think you have to have it if you have any of the quilt sets just for efficiency sake. The think the blue paper is very old creative memories patterned paper...but I wouldn't swear on it. I used it because it reminded me of quilt fabric and it was about as close as I could get from my stash. The saying is from the original Quilter's Sampler set and was stamped in brocade blue because it matched the blue paper best. The mini pink buttons I bought at hobby lobby in a multi-pack awhile and the two square buttons in the corner are newly retired SU buttons in barely banana and brocade blue. The ribbon is PTI satin in Lemon Tart.

Hope to have a V-Day card for you on Monday. Happy Weekend and Happy Stamping!

Alisa,
That is the cutest card ever! Maybe it's because I'm a quilter, but you really outdid yourself. Now I must purchase that punch from PTI that goes with the quilter's sets. Darn! Liz
