Hello Crafty Friends and Happy Monday! Today signals a new challenge month at The Inspiration Station Challenge Blog, where challenge themes are based on an inspirational picture and you interpret it your own way. Our photo this month is:
I was directly inspired by the bright yellow rain boots and decided on a bright and cheerful card design. My card features an adorable Bee from Amanda Jayne Designs (sadly, no longer in business) with patterned papers from the "Bee Happy" 6x6 paper pad by Echo Park.
I've colored this cutie using Copic Alcohol Markers and went with a square card design. I've die cut the focal and mat using nesting oval dies from Hero Arts, the sentiment is a cut apart from the paper pad and I've rounded the corners with a corner punch.
The focal image and sentiment have been popped on foam pads and I've added gold sequins from my stash for that something extra. The papers in this pad are lovely and I think this little bee is perfect for Springtime.
The team and I hope you'll "buzz" over to the Challenge and play along this month. We're always delighted to see everyone's creative interpretations of the inspiration photo.
Until next time, Happy Crafting!
Donna

ReplyDeleteDonna, this is an adorable, sweet and happy creation if ever there was one! If only we could concentrate on "bee-ing" instead of our appearance, or worrying about what others think about us, what a beautiful world it would be. BTW, thanks for making my little world so much happier with your pleasant posts, pretty artwork and sweet comments. huggers, de
