Hello Friends and Happy Monday! Today is the 1st Monday of the month and that signals a new challenge at The Inspiration Station Challenge Blog. We have a lovely inspiration photo for you this round, and it can be interpreted in so many ways:
For my design team project, I've created a card that could be used for Mother's Day. I've left the inside sentiment blank until I decide what I'll use the card for. My mother passed away in 2014 and my mother-in-law in 2010, so I may give this card to my granddaughter, so she can give it to my daughter for Mother's Day.
I've used the "Elephant Friends" Stamp set from Pretty Pink Posh and colored the 2 sweet elephants using Copic Alcohol Markers, the sentiment is from the same stamp set.
Using 2 sizes of the nesting Hexagon Dies from Hero Arts, I've cut panels and mats for the focal images and sentiment. I've fussy cut the adorable critters and popped on foam pads, as well as the sentiment. To give the critters a place to "sit", I've used 2 mirrored peel off strips from Love from Lizi.
To add texture and interest to an otherwise flat white panel, I've embossed the panel behind the elephants with the Floral Fantasy embossing folder from Cuttlebug (an oldie but goodie!). The designer paper is from Recollections and the finishing touches are silver sequins from my stash.
The team and I hope you'll stop by the challenge this month and share your inspired projects. We're always amazed at the creativity everyone shares with us, and we hope to inspire you with our projects. Until next time, Happy Crafting!
