Happy Sunday! So excited to start a new post on Sundays - going forward I will not only feature a photo of the challenge but a card/project inspired by it. Hope Stamps Eternal Cupcake Inspiration Challenge. This week there's a special treat which I will tell you about in a bit, so make sure to participate. Now onto the yummy inspiration piece for this week's challenge (CIC15):
This is what I came up with, Bowl of Cherries.
I started off with a white piece of card stock and added a piece of Basic Grey Lemonade Paper Pack to which I used the scallop edge punch on one end prior to adhering it to the card front. Under the scallop edge I added a piece of Pretty in Pink Taffeta ribbon.
I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored it in with Copics as well as paper pieced the dress with a piece of designer paper from the Basic Grey Lemonade Paper Pack. The image is new from Basic Grey's Gamma Series called Girl ...I just love her, reminds me of Tim Burton's sort of style. I also popped the heart and added some gingham red ribbon to her ponytails. I finished it off by adding some ZVA Creative Crystals to the dress and eyes.
The sentiment and bowl of cherries at the bottom right corner of the card front is also from Basic Grey's Gamma Series called Tree.
Okay, so are you ready to see what one lucky player can win? Well here it is.
Go to Hope Stamps Eternal'sblog and link your card to Mr. Linky...good luck to all!!!
