Well, it is morning, and I should be in bed because we are getting up early to go to my mother's for the weekend! But ya'll know how it is, this is what I do! LOL! Anyway, the inspiration challenge is always my favorite challenge of the week! I chose this poster as my inspiration today:
I masked and sponged and stamped the background using a combination of the new July sets from Our Daily Bread designs. Then I sprayed it with Glimmer Mist. The flowers were colored with copics (W1, W3, R85,G99) and cut out and sprayed with more Glimmer Mist! I just can't seem to stop using that stuff! And the center of the dogwood flowers has a little flower soft! These stamps are so pretty! Just want to give a little shout out to Dina Kowal! She designed these two sets! She is amazingly talented! Hope everyone has a great 4th of July! Thanks for looking!
