Card #1 was inspired by 3 challenges...
Inspired By Challenges // #IB264 ...An inspiration challenge!! The inspiration photo for this challenge had a colorful string of lings and some black & white twine, so I included both on my card. When I saw this photo I right away thought of this box of trimmings being carried in from storage...a fun stamp from Newton's Nook.
Less Is More // #LIM497 ...An alphabet challenge!! D is for Deck the Halls!! How fun!! Can you make a Deck the Halls card that is CAS? Yes, you can with this fun trimming the tree image.
Never Before Used Schtuff // #NBUS56 ...A "never been used" challenge!! This image from a Newton's Nook set has never been inked up until today!! I love this chic carrying the box of holiday trims out of storage...we plan to do that this weekend!!
I must say...I don't think I will ever layer this image again!! Cutting out those teeny tiny light bulbs was a killer!!
Card #2 was inspired by 3 challenges...
Inspire.Create.Challenge // #ICC156 ...A color challenge!! Boho Blue, Lemon Lolly, and Moody Mauve. So many possibilities!! For me I created a wintery backdrop my my snowflake.
Global Design Project // #GDP422 ...A sketch challenge!! A fun sketch. I had created a background layer with the challenge colors for ICC's challenge and decided this sketch was perfect for showcasing it...so instead of using the whole layer, I punched out 4 squares from it. Thanks for the inspiration!!
Just Add Ink // #JAI680 ...A "just add" challenge!! For this current challenge we are to "add" alcohol!! Several of the DT samples had us adding alcohol (as in drinks) images, but I decided to use actually alcohol (as in rubbing alcohol) in my background technique!!
Two delightful makes ... I definitely feel your pain, layering those light bulbs but .. oh, so worth it!
