 | | Haven't had a chance to do much stamping and definitely not on Saturdays lately, but the Inspiration Challenge is one that I've really been missing! Today we took a trip through French Garden House's site to find our muse for the day. I'm a big fan of blue and was drawn right away to this awesome china http://www.frenchgardenhouse.com/catalog.php?item=2409. I'm in need of a bunch of thank you notes for all my friends/family who helped with the wedding of my DD last Saturday. I wanted a design that would be rather quick so I decided to pull out my Very Vintage wheel. I went with my new fave blue, Midnight Muse. I then squished some ink into the lid and used a paint brush and the ink to watercolor some extras. I then used a white gel pen (and black marker on the butterfly) to go back and add some highlights. I cut and popped a butterfly, but if I'd worked the wheel better and had a full butterfly image I wouldn't have bothered (more encouragement to brave unmounting my wheels for more control!!!). I added a quick sentiment and some Midnight Muse framing and my CAS thank you was complete! |
