The Flower Challenge July: Be Inspired By the Colours in the Photo

 

Hi there flower fans!

A new challenge for us at The Flower Challenge for the month of July,

'Be Inspired by the Colors in the Photo'

Oh the inspiration! Couldn't wait to use Tim Holtz' Brushstroke Flowers.

My bg is a smooshing technique with Ripe Persimmon and Salvaged Patina Oxide Inks.

The script sentiment is from SSS, (Happily Ever After) first cut from copper card

stock, then backed with Stormy Sea (PTI).

We recently attended 3 weddings, my stash for newlyweds is depleted. 

This will come in handy!

Play along through the 25th of July, We love seeing your creative cards!

The Flower Challenge #104 - Colour Challenge

The Card Concept #35 Frilly & Fabulous!

Very inspired by the inspiration over at the Card Concept.

With this photo,

and the incredible card by

Angela Maine,

I went with the silver fork.

Sometimes you have to go with what inspires!

I created a wallpaper of forks with a Clearstamp vintage kitchen set,

also using their smaller cutlery on the strip of kraft paper.

Wrapped the card in silver tulle, also distressing edges a bit with Encore's Ultimate Metallic Silver.

We played with fussy cutting our own shapes at PTI this week, with Ashley Canon Newell,

perfect timing to add a sentiment to this Anniversary or Wedding card.

'Always' from Brushed Blooms. (PTI)

My flower is created from Spellbinders: A Gilded Life, Urban Blooms,

which allows cutting and embossing.

I added the silver tips and pearls to PTI's Shimmer Cardstock.

I actually die cut 3 flowers, but couldn't fit the other 2 them in!

However did manage to do a flower with 3 layers!

Have to go with Classy & Elegant like my muse, Angela!
