British Summertime at Inkspirational


Greetings!  I am so excited to share with you my first project after getting back into the swing of things over at Inkspirational Challenge!  We are creating projects, as we are inspired by this gorgeous picture below:


I was immediately drawn to this picture!  I love the colors, the ocean, the balloon, the sailor, the mermaid, the whale and the sailboats!  For my own card, I began by spritzing several shades of Dylusions Spray Ink onto my card base.  Next I stamped some new images from Red Lead Stamps onto scrap card stock, trimmed and water colored them with Ranger Distress Inks.  The ship in the top right is by Paper Artsy and was stamped directly to the card front.  A few bits of cheese cloth and a snippet of ribbon tape complete my card.  I hope you will stop over to see the rest of the projects the Design Team has come up with to inspire you and then submit one of your own!

I bow down to you Yvonne - I just wish I could do collage like you do! So many elements to this and yet they work so beautifully together and are totally perfect for the theme. So great to have you back.

I love this design, Yvonne! It has kind of a mystical feel to it. You've combined so many beautiful images, I would never have thought of bringing these together like this, and I love the look of this combination!
