IC638, Graceful Swan
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: Benzi

 I think we have a lot of good things to be inspired by this week for the Inspiration Challenge. I was inspired by this beautiful swan: https://www.antiquefarmhouse.com/med...an-planter.jpg

I got out a stamp I think I have only used once. I used three stamps in the set. One was the cattails and bank at the top, then the lake with the swan, and then I stamped the grasses and pebbles at the bottom.

I colored the images with Copics. I made a mask for the moon with a circle punch and Frog tape. I was then able to sponge a morning sunrise and remove the mask.

Hope you'll find something just perfect for inspiration and come along and play with us in the challenge.

So lovely, Brenda. Love the scene you did and the beautiful coloring. What a great image, and such a great Birthday card. I love the inspiration site today. Totally my style of decorating and I have a ton of ideas in my head. I am going to a women's conference today but I am going to start a card tonight. Thanks for the inspiration in your card and the challenge. Hugz
