Isn't this just gorgeous and bursting with inspiration. This is what I was inspired to make:
The subtle colours of the sky inspired me to blend various distress inks to make the long panel on my card. And I loved the contrast of this subtle sky with the strong black colour of the biggest butterfly and used die cuts to try to show this. And finally I embossed the pink card stock as a nod to the flowers in the photo.
Quite a lot going on here for one of my cards but I did love doing the blending and the rest just seemed to come together as I looked at the photo!
Our DT have some great projects to inspire you so go ahead and take a peek here and then get stamping!
And don't forget this week you have chance to win a $10 voucher for Di's Digi Downloads.
