Finding Inspiration in a Layout

Such a beautiful layout and so much inspiration. Lots of ideas floating around in my head. Still planning another card using this LO as inspiration .

I created this project for the Finding Inspiration in a Layout Challenge in the Moxie Fab World. I used a blue background and encorporated the other colours from the LO in the circles on my card...using the circles on the LO as inspiration. I also added a button to my card as there are buttons on the LO.

A Sketch and a Colour Challenge

Read about the Colour Throwdown challenge on Amy's blog and combined this with sketch FTL98 on Clean and Simple Stamping blog.

Trigger Tuesday - Poppin' off the Page

Oh my word! Really got a shock when I saw this week's photo for Trigger Tuesday. Didn't think I would even try, but then what are challenges for? So I chose a few elements to work with. I stamped a black and white background, then I stamped the flower and leaves on colour CS in black ink as all the flowers in the trigger photo had black outlines. Kept my card simple as "too busy" just doesn't appeal to me. So I think the bit of colour on my card "pops" off the black and white background.

Play Date Cafe Challenge

Read about The Play Date Cafe challenge on Nerina's blog and loved these colours and her awesome card, so I decided to play along. Really enjoying all these colour challenges at the moment. Thanks to everyone for all the inspiration.

Tuesday Trigger - A Pleasing Palette

This is my take on the Trigger Tuesday challenge on Moxie Fab World. Loved the teacup in the photo - stamped with Versamark and embossed with white EP on the yellow cardstock.

Embellish Colour Challenge

Embellish Magazine has the most stunning colour challenges. Besides providing great colour combos, there is always a little twist to the challenge in that you are told what type of card to make. This week the challenge was to make an invitation using the colours provided. The minute I saw these colours, I knew I had to play along.....love them. I made a little criss-cross pocket card to hold the invitation.

Up in the Air

It was Mara's turn to issue our blogging group with the next challenge, which was to create a card with something IN THE AIR on it. I was so glad for the opportunity to use my Fly Away stamp set, which had not seen any ink yet!.
