Okay, I guess an inspiration challenge should be a SERIOUS thing...but I couldn't help from fooling around a little bit with today's inspiration piece (and I'm soooo glad that I'm not the only one who lacked the appropriate seriousness, looking into today's gallery, LOL). So I chose this outhouse stamp. I'm not sure if the scene is international enough, so here's the translation: Ladies - Gents - Dogs is what is written onto the three outhouses. I added an arrow just to make sure that our little four-legged friend chooses the right outhouse...
The scene is stamped with Brown Memories ink onto white cardstock, then watercolored in many color layers. I sponged some green on the ground and added some little grass, bush and flower stamps with brown, green and yellow Memento ink. Then I overstamped the scene with the SU linen background stamp with Adirondack Sandal ink. I added some brads and a metal tab, attached it to blue cardstock, then to some dp and a green card. The little dog is attached with dimensionals.
I'm still smiling when I look at the scene...Hope you're smiling, too!
