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

Quoth the Raven

Hello Dear Friends!  The weeks fly by so fast and already it is time for another challenge over at Fashionable Stamping Challenge. The theme for the next two weeks is to create a project around the theme of "Autumn Colors."  For my own creation, I began by applying three shades of PanPastels onto a piece of card stock.  I added stenciling with Vintage Photo Distress Ink and Tim Holtz Stencils. The pocket watch die cut, also by Tim Hotz Alterations, was colored with PanPastels and shaded along the edge Vintage Photo DI.  The focal image is by Red Lead.  The finished pocket watch was added to the card panel with foam dots along with a piece of cheese cloth that was dyed with Vintage Photo and Wild Honey DIs. The card panel was layered over a remnant of autumn printed gift wrap. A piece of upcycled lace, copper Liquid Pearls, some paper leaves and a vintage button complete my card.  I hope you will pop over to FSC to see what my Design Team Sisters have dreamed up to inspire you and then I hope you will create a project of your own to share with us.  Our generous sponsor FlonzCraft will provide a $20 gift card to one lucky participant.  Best wishes, Yvonne
