I would be totally lying if I didn't say that everything I'll be doing this week is inspired by what I learned at Convention and the many wonderful free stamps that they gave us....but I will also honestly say that the colors and textures of the inspiration site were also inspiring, especially this image with blended colors and soft circular undertones like the stamp set:
You can't tell but I capitalized on the bleed through on the back and used it as my guide to push the lantern images forward from the back with a stylus. This makes them appear rounded on the front of the card - giving a single layer card some dimension! It's a really neat effect (like toile) which is hard to capture in a photo. (If you don't like bleed through try using GinaK heavy weight pure luxury card stock as it doesn't bleed through - expect the colors to change slightly as well though.)
Please join us and create something uniquely inspired of your own this week!
