For today's Inspiration Challenge (IC), Audrie (girlgeek101) selected a fantastic web page of 100 brilliant color combinations from which to choose for making a card. WONDERFUL IC, Audrie! This page is a great reference for future projects.
I chose #70, Arctic Sunrise, as my guide. I love the color choices for #70, and I love the scene that reflects the colors. I, therefore, decided to try and recreate the scene using similar colors. I tried to match the colors with Stampin' Up! ink as closely as I could, and I added a small amount of yellow.
After creating the scene, which has an iceberg on the left, I stamped the image and sentiment.
I made the card for my son-in-law who is soaring high in his career. I'm very proud of him!!
Thanks so much for viewing and leaving comments!

Love this vintage plane and the sentiment is perfect with it as are your colors.

Ditto to everyone else: your recreation of the scene is awesome. The iceberg as the sentiment panel is superb. Your son-in-law will be equally proud of this beauty his mother-in-law created to celebrate his achievement.
