Book Color Inspiration via Stamp 2 Spend

Photo Details

Poster: ravengirl

I made this card for the Stamp 2 Spend Challenge-3.

Here are the details of the challenge:

Go to your bookshelf and pull out your favorite read - preferably fiction. Create a card using the colors on the cover. This is a simple card. NO embellishments except for EMBOSSING in any form. Treat your card design as a book cover you want to catch your readers attention.

I think I did alright! I used Twilight by Stephenie Meyer as my source of inspiration for this card.

Thanks for looking!
