The challenge is to find inspiration from an item in our home and create a card. I used the lighthouse print that hangs in one of bathrooms.
I really tried to layer my two photos in my Adobe program but I just canÂ’t figure this new program outÂ…so if youÂ’d like to see my inspiration piece it is in the challenge linked here in post #91.
Hold down your shift key and click on the link and a second screen will come up and you can view the two side by side.
-Image is colored with Prismacolor pencils and mineral spirits.
-I have a mask cut from a sticky note that is stored with the unmounted image in a CD case so that was used on this card.
-The background is stamped on then colored with a combo of pencils and sponging from the ink pads.
-Photo corners are from the Iron Eagle punch from EK Success and glued to the card.
-The beige border layer is stamped with the Weave backgrounder from CHF then ink distressed.

This is gorgeous Roxi! Great coloring! Wish I could have gotten a thumbnail in my message thread... had my inspiration pic removed and never could figure out how to put it in the thread. Great job with your inspiration!
