Good morning Sweet 'n Sassy Friends! I have two cards to share with you today that were made with the help of "A Little Inspiration." Sometimes my creativity needs a jump start...how about you? When that happens, there are several places I go for a little inspiration! This past Saturday, Korin suggested
RedEnvelope for the
Inspiration Challenge over at Splitcoaststampers. There I found a giraffe platter that inspired my Embossed Silhouettes card.
The beautiful silhouette image from the new
Nature Silhouettes clear stamp set was stamped with VersaMark ink and clear embossed. The stripes were masked, then sponged with distress inks. The frame was made by cutting ovals out of the Select White and Blueberry Sky panels. The white panel was then dry embossed with a Sizzix folder and a canvass impression plate after the sentiment from the
Season of Change set was stamped at the bottom. Piercing, pearls, and a bow were added.
My second card was inspired by the
"Hump Day" #41 Challenge on the
SNSS Forum over at Splitcoaststampers. I happen to be hosting the challenge today which is a photo from a favorite inspiration spot,
A Creative Mint.
The rosettes were made to represent the cupcake papers in the photo. The stars, the rhinestones, and the pop of red were also inspired by the photo! The
Seeing Spots clear stamp set, the
Star Die Set,
Vintage Postcard, and the
Pennants and More Die Sets were used to make the elements on top of the rosettes. I hope you'll have a chance to check out the
"Hump Day" Challenge and play along, especially if your creativity needs a little jump start!
Thanks for stopping by and have an inspiring week!
Hugs to You!
