Today Toni is looking for something sweet on our cards. Weâre celebrating her sweet daughterâs sweet sixteen. I went looking through my stamps for one that Iâve never used and found this cute piece of pie. So I cut it out and dug through my background drawer for an interesting background. I liked the triangle pattern of this one to carry the shape of pie slice through the card. This gel print was a negative print of the triangle stencil, so there was no color to the triangles. I thought that was a little bit boring, so I sponged Peacock Feathers DOX ink through the stencil for a layered look. I didnât want pumpkin pie, because I would never eat pumpkin pie, but it just had to be.

You may have had to have Pumpkin pie, but look at it this way. You used up a BG! Yay! I love Pumpkin pie, but only in November and December. I would never think of making one any other time. Weird.
The triangles of the BG really do go great with the oie shape though. Great choice of BGs.

I always like that when you have a negative print you can easily add colour back to the negative. The triangles do work so well with your slice of sweet pie.
