It's time for a new challenge over at the Time Out Challenge Blog. The theme this time around is Home Sweet Home: a challenge in which we take our inspiration from home decor. Here it is:
The challenge is sponsored by STAMPlorations.
See details on the Time Out Challenge Blog.
Andrea of KandA Creative Moments is Guest Designer. Treat yourself to a stroll through her blog. You will be glad you did.
Here is my take using STAMPlorations Trendy Birds 2 stamp set:
I focused on the birds, banners and clouds. It's hard to see in this photo, but the card base is embossed with the Taylored Expressions Clouds Impression Plate. I painted with Zigs directly onto the bird stamp, sprayed it with water, stamped it on watercolor paper and added a drop of Nuvo Ebony Black for an eye. I die cut the watercolor panel with Lawn Fawn Stitched Party Banners, added the sentiment and leafy ribbon, and popped it up on the cloud background.
Please head over to the Time Out Challenge Blog to see what the Design Team has created to ignite your creative flame. What inspires you in the photo? I can't wait to find out.
