This is my first inspiration challenge in forever!! I forgot how fun this challenge is!!!
I was inspired to use gold and burgundy paper with some flourishes...the rest just kind of happened!! I had my Delight in Life on my table from a card I did a few days ago. So I took my flowers from that!! I decided to be brave and stamp the sentiment right on the main panel and was promptly reminded why I NEVER do that!! I stamped it crooked of course!! (always put sentiment on another layer!!!!!)
I then needed something to fill that corner and was going to use a butterfly as that seemed the obvious choice!! While searching for said butterfly, I discovered the bird from Carte Postale...hmmm, I thought to myself, that might be fun!! Well, by the time I realized that they were waaaay off on scale, the work was done and I didn't feel like starting on something different...soooooo...that is why I have ginormous flowers with teeny tiny little birdies!!
Not a perfect card...but definitely inspired and FUN!!!
Thanks for lookin'!!!
