Is anyone else out there looking forward to spring? Yesterday, the groundhog said another 6 weeks of Winter but I'm thinking of spring and butterflies and buds on the trees. This challenge inspiration photo from Inspiration Station pretty much says it all. :-D
A new challenge starts today and, as always, we give you a photo for inspiration. You can do nearly anything but we do want to know how you were inspired. Was it the butterfly? The colors? The season? A memory? Tell us and add your project to the link up for the entries.
Here's my card ad I've already told you that the butterfly was my inspiration. The image is a clip art photo, edited so that the background stayed pre-colored but the butterfly was gray scale, and I colored it with ProMarkers and gel pens. I cut the image with a Spellbinders die, and added a frame made with pumpkin CS and trimmed to fit. I layered that onto two pieces of kraft CS, added to diagonal corners top and bottom.
The plaid background dp came from a Recollections stack which has been in my stash almost forever! I ran across the stack last month, hidden away in a craft room cabinet, and decided it was time to start using the papers before they got brittle and crumbled to bits. :-D
