For today's Inspiration Challenge we were sent to a very interesting site, , an Esty store called Jennspendants. It was chock full of hand-crafted jewelry in a variety of themes. I chose this Rainbow Flower Necklace as my inspiration. I had wanted to try the block-fill technique again, and this seemed to be something that would lend itself to that technique.

Lois, we chose the same flower to CASE and did something completely different with it. Your card is just beautiful. Love the technique you did for this.

Lois, this is a stunning card. The black background really makes your colorful flowers really pop. Wonderfully done.

Oh my goodness, what a standout in the gallery Lois! I love the technique, and the doodling you did around the framing is wonderful. Thanks for joining the IC this weekend!
