To start this out, I probably should have waited until I was completely healed to try to be creative. No I didn't get hurt, but I did get the stomach flu, and boy oh boy am I glad it is gone. I can only guess that I got it from DH, seeing as he was sick and in the ER on Monday. After all his tests, he is fine, so I am guessing that he had the flu, and then gave it to me. Isn't he sweet.
This is for todays inspiration challenge. I was inspired from the colors, although I had a hard time picking a green out. I liked the flowers along the bottom, so I tried to do something like those. I sponged in the rock, and gave it some definition with my markers. I tried to do a sun like what they had in the picture, which made me think of grapefruit, yum, but it didn't turn out the way I wanted, and since I had already stamped and sponged the whole bottom part, I chose to cover it up with ribbon.
Thanks for looking and have a great day. I am off to keep my couch company now.
