Just a quick post to share my take on the inspiration photo Dawn from Wplus9 provided for this week's Monday Mood Board. Easter........I don't really send Easter cards........so I went with a birthday theme and carried the colors from the inspiration photo to my florals.
This card has been a work in progress since Wednesday morning! I stamped my floral panel (masking technique) but then was stuck! I finally narrowed everything down after talking with my friend Jen yesterday! She has a take on this photo as well and I can't wait to see her version! The sketch over at Seize the Birthday card challenge blog helped me pull this all together....this week it's a feminine birthday card!
**Do you see the tiny trio of flowers? I thought there was too much white space between the florals that I searched my Wplus9 set and found this itty bitty to fill in the space....Love how it turned out!**
Jen, the scallops are for you and I used the heart border to make them......but I couldn't fit the chick in! :)

ReplyDeleteAmy your card is a breath of spring! I love that little trio stamp! I think someone should make a set of just teeny tiny stamps! I would keep it on my desk all the time as I am always scouting my sets for the tiny ones when making backgrounds!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your sweet comment on my blog! I too miss the cd cases! But I bit the bullet and ordered a case of DVD cases and now I just don't allow myself to ink up my stamps till I put them in a case. I usually watch episodes of "the good wife" while doing so! That really helps! LOL!
Such a Beautiful Card!! I LOVE all of the added details and your take on the challenge photo!! THANKS for sharing and have a Fabulous Week!! =)
