Girl on a Swing

 
 
 
Greetings! It is time, once again, for a new challenge over at Inkspirational.  This time, we have a photo challenge, using the beautiful image above.  I hope that you will stop over to see what the rest of the design team dreamed up to inspire you and that you will consider making a piece of your own to share with us. 
 
I created my piece using pastels for the background, a bit of stenciling and some stamp images. I love how these challenges push me to create cards that I never would have thought to make!
 
Thanks for stopping by! Hugs, Yvonne

Dreamer, Doer, Thinker

 

Greetings! I am back again with a post for the latest Challenge over at Fashionable Stamping Challenge where the theme is "Floral."

I chose this beautiful floral stamp and sentiment by Donna Downey for Unity Stamps.  I water colored it with various watercolors and the center has some added bling with copper Stickles. The background was done with black embossing paste and a stencil from Tim Holtz.

I hope that you will stop over to see all the beautiful inspiration pieces by the rest of the design team and then consider make a piece of your own to share with us. Please remember that we are a stamping challenge, so your focal image must be stamped!

Our generous vendor Ink Art Designs has a stamp image to gift to one lucky participant. Thanks for stopping by.

Hugs, Yvonne

Now is the Right Time

 
 
Greetings! It is time once again for a new challenge over at Inkspirational! This time, its "Shades of Purple and Gold."


 
It gave me a chance to use some products for the first time. The background is done with Dylusions Ink Sprays. The stamp image is by Prima and the gold around the edges is done with "WOW" powder. I hope that you will stop over to look at all the other cool cards by the rest of the design team and be inspired to create a card of your own to share with us! Thanks for stopping by.  Best, Yvonne
