oh......MAN!!! This one REALLLLLLLLLLLY took me out of my comfort zone.......I fell asleep 4 times trying to pick inspiration and then I thought, gee, good excuse to just skip it but it was eclectic friend Peggy who came up with this challenge, (you know how to pick em girl!!) so I HAD to play along......THis is what my non eclectic brain came up with......I do not have one particular piece that inspired me....Peggy inspired me and my inspiration was the overall feel of that website.....I am not overjoyed with this card by any means.....but I do think it is a good representation of some of the artwork on that website.....and since I worked so hard on it I'm putting it in the collage gallery today cuz if you ask me it's a collage.....phew - what a workout!!! Stephanie, can you pick some nice nature scenes next week maybe?????? Just kidding......they don't call it a challenge for nothin!! Happy Saturday everyone!! Happy Snow Day!! I will tell you one thing, left to itself my brain would have NEVER come up with this card.....hope you like it, (maybe more then i do??) Bwahahaha

Comfort zone abandoned, ha ha. Now this was one I DID find easy, but I was thinking nice nature scenes would be good too - I was even thinking of going digging for a suitable site to suggest.
I like this - very dramatic with all those purple flowers, and elegance from the script and dress.

Actually, I'm traveling next week, so maybe Anne won't push you out of your comfort zone quite so far ... the key is to find inspiration & make it your own ... which you did ... love that texty background ... fantastic inspired card.
