BIRTHDAY FILLABLE FRAMES #4 / PTI July Blog Hop


My grandfather will be 85 tomorrow. I thought that this challenge to use office supplies would be great for his card, since he still works full time! He's a plumber... most folks would say the best, most honest one in town! I would have to agree...



For my entry into PTI's blog hop this month, I used Papertrey Ink's Fillable Frames #4, the matching die, Signature Greetings, and Women of Life for the sentiments. I love that you can mix & match all of these - lol! The base is Kraft, a layer of Aqua Mist, and a layer of Dotty Biscotti Hawaiian Shores. The ledger paper is from Stampin' Up!. For embellishments I used a paperclip, eyelets, staples & a metal rimmed circle tag I bought from an office supply place years ago that I had in my stash.

Thanks so much for "hopping" by!
