Also, remember to link to your SCS gallery on this thread. Thank you for joining me on this inspiration journey.
Hi Anne, thanks for the fun challenge. I just finished making this card for the DTGD challenges and found the hot air balloon party napkins plates, etc so I am submitting this card for the IC.

Great challenge Anne. Here's my card to this challenge and the inspiration for it.
Here is my second card for todays challenge where I also used the Flirtatious material from SU. I cut out flowers and the top note using material. I embossed the background and added buttons and a saying. This was fun to work with material instead of paper.
I've attached the inspiration photo for this card as well.

There is a story behind this card. When I saw this dress on the site, I almost flipped because I made a dress almost exactly like this for my daughter's 4th birthday. The only difference between the dress I made and the inspiration dress was that mine Criss-crossed in the back, Mary Dee by The Children's Corner for any sewers out there, and originally had pleats at the bottom and no rick rack. When I took the pleats out to add more length to the dress as she grew, I added the rickrack to cover up the lines left by the pleats. Well, my daughter will be 19 in two weeks, so I just had to make this card!

I haven't participated in a challenge in a long time, but this was a great one to join! I selected a floral plate for my inspiration piece. Here is my card: Inspired Flowers
I had a lot of fun with this challenge! Tonight I'm going to look through the gallery and check out everyone else's cards. Thanks for the inspiration!
