Hi there! Today I have a card to share that I made for my sweet sister Marlene. I'm joining along with this week's PTI Make It Monday challenge where the challenge is to create a project featuring a pattern behind a die cut window.

I created a window frame around the stamped PTI Newsprint background then added a couple of peonies from the PTI Pretty Peonies stamp set:

For color and flower inspiration, I'm joining along with the fusion challenge:

For sketch inspiration, I'm joining along with the Mojo Monday sketch challenge:

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Be Sweet ;)
