Happy Tuesday! Lets start with the winner from the 100 Proof Press & Genuinely Jane Studios Blog Hop... Kathleen White! Please email me your address so we can send you your prize!
On Sunday I was working out at the gym with some friends, and one of them had on these tennis shoes..
...I asked, "Please send me a picture of your shoe!" lol... I know he thought I was nuts! But sometimes you are just inspired by random things... in this case, Converse Sneakers!
So... I came home and pulled out some cardstock in Black, White, Gray, & Orange...
Did a little layering, some crinkling, and then some misting...
....and then there was some doodling...
This is what it all came together to be:
I stamped the white flowers using a large foam stamp by Donna Downy.
Here are some details:
A little Zva Creative Bling:
I worked my journaling into the doodling on the flowers:
Today I was looking at one of my favorite blogs, Purple Mailbox, and she was announcing the latest Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge.. Birds & Feathers. It inspired my title, "Crazy Chicks".
Now here is a fun element...
My flowers are on a small rectangle of gray cardstock that is adhered with a brad. The last picture on this I wanted to cover because it just wasn't that great, but I didn't want to glue on to it...
So, it rotates down to reveal the picture.
Never stop looking for inspiration.. You can find it in the craziest places!
Happy Creating,
XOXO
