This card is for today's Inspiration Challenge(IC195)!!! Thanks, Anne!!! Our inspiration site for today's challenge is "Creative Wall Coverings". As soon as I saw wallcoverings, I thought stamping backgrounds....woohoo!!!
For my card, I actually got inspiration from three images. Two "backgrounds" and one actual inspiration photo. I blended the three. Here are the links.
Also, wanted to give a shout out to Julie(juliemlacey) for the fabulous color combo that I saw on her card here.
Speaking of blending, this card is also for the VLVSEP01 Sketch Challenge. Julee gave us two similar sketches. I sort of morphed those, too. The Verve weekly sketch challenges also have a "twist." This week's twist is round things.
I won a Verve set at the release party. I chose Bountiful Backgrounds. This was the first stamp set I think I have ever won as well as my first Verve set. Naturally, since I won something, I bought some more to go along with it.
