August 2014 PTI Blog Hop!

I'm playing along at PTI's August Blog Hop because who can resist that Kate Spade inspiration photo? Not I! My card is embossed-though not gold. And those are certainly not polka dots..... but close enough I hope?? I love the embossed card stock (bought at Buffalo Stamps' annual garage sale for a steal!) and wanted to use this as my bg, along with a monogram stamp purchased long ago at Paper Source in Chicago and some Rasberry Fizz cs. Oh, and got to use that great envelope maker (which needs to be returned to my MIL asap!). Lots of beautiful creations over at the hop, so I'm headed back for more ideas!
