Birthdays Are Like Quilts

 


I was digging though my Papertrey Ink stash and ran across Quilter's Sampler, circa 2008. The set has endless possibilities especially when used with the Quilter's Sampler Additions set which includes many more traditional quilt block patterns. My quilt was made by stamping. coloring and cutting out (with a 3/4" square punch) 9 different quilt squares and piecing them together. Four things came to mind: Wow, I really love this stamp set; my friend who is an incredibly talented quilter has a birthday soon; Inkspirational's current challenge is Pretty Quilt; and Color Hues current colors are Kraft & Red. So this card happened...
