Blogger’s Challenge Week 17
I’m really lovin this Blogger’s Challenge activity. Each week we have different challenges - this week’s challenge was “Inspiration” - taking something that gives you inspiration, create and share. Here is my sample:
I don’t have a picture of the inspiration piece to share. This was one of those times where I saw something that gave me an idea I made a little note in my ideas notebook - sometimes may put in a little sketch or side notes. So I visited my IDEAS book and this is what I came up with. Card is 5 1/4 X 5/14 square. Blue Bayou (SU) cardstock base covered with slightly smaller Basic Grey Periphery pattern paper that was stamped with “Pollen Dust” swirls (Fancy Pants) using Glue Essentials pad the covered with Martha Stewart glitter. The stamped bird image (Oxford Impressions) was stamped with Burnt Umber (Palette) and colored with PrismaMarkers. The frame is a Basic Grey die cut that I outlined with Goldleafing pen (Krylon). Put the stamped image behind the frame, tied a swede ribbon (unknown) around, and final placement of the framed image with dimensionals (SU). Be sure to check out the other Blogger Challenges - links on right sidebar. Enjoy, Lila
