Papertrey Ink May Blog Hop: Always be strong



I have a couple new Papertrey Ink goodies that are NBUS so I thought I'd better join in the May Hop Fun:



Such a pretty inspiration photo...I struggled with the muted colors, tossed 2 cards and finally settled on this one:


I absolutely LOVE the Courage & Kindness stamp set!  I love how it has single images but also the images that help you stamp out everything in a scenery.  Those are the stamps I used.  The sentiments in this set are wonderful.


I don't have any PTI inks but if you're interested in the colors I used, they're Fresh Inks:

Blush - Charcoal - Succulent - Kale - Pear

I can't wait to hop around and be thoroughly inspired!
