This picture was one of the INKSPIRATIONS4U Challenges that was set a few weeks ago. Use this picture as an inspiration for a card.
It was a tricky one and I know it had me stumped for a bit. What would you do? Would you base it on the colours?? Use the shapes such as the swirls or circles or perhaps the stripes?? In the end I picked out some of the colours and I wanted to use circles in there somehow. Here is my end result.
I went with Crumb Cake, Chocolate Chip, Baja Breeze and Old Olive. I thought these colours would suit a masculine type card. I ran some Old Olive card through the Big Shot using the Square Lattice Embossing Folder and layered it on Chocolate Chip. I wrapped around some twine and adhered that to a Crumb Cake base. I punched out various circles with the 1″, 1 1/4″, 1 3/8″ circle punch. I added some eyelets to 3 of the circles. I adhered the circles in a formation with Snail or raising some with mounting tape. The greeting is stamped with Chocolate Chip and is from “Party This Way”. This was quite a fun card to do in the end.
Thanks for stopping by. Pop back again over the weekend and I will show you a card that nearly didn’t happen!
