Happy Thursday, peeps! Time for another Inspired By challenge....it's a warm vintage one today, here's what I created (the photo doesn't do it justice, really):
And here's Laurel's sweet prompt:
Spring lovelies they are, too! Just look at all that homespun goodness! I started by diecutting an oval from the front of a Naturals White panel, then stamped it with the Linen background stamp in Sahara Sand ink. For my background, I stamped the Buffalo Check background stamp in Pear Pizzazz and placed it behind the "window". I mounted all of this on a Soft Seafoam card base. My diecut flowers in Pear Pizzazz and Almost Amethyst were laid along side the edge of the oval and accented with a couple of sequins:
Finally, I "tied" the stems with a piece of crochet trim and Old Olive linen thread. My sentiment is from Perennial Birthday, and I hand-cut it out and sponged the edges:
I could gaze for hours at this pretty vignette that Laurel found!! It's so homey and cozy...what inspires you? I hope you'll play along with us this week as well!
Enjoy your day and be blessed!

ReplyDeleteLOve your darling oval window … and that linen stamp - not one thing wrong with the pear pizzazz! It's lovely, my friend!

I love how you tied the stems together. I'm so glad they came out with the subtle TIEF as it reminds me of the linen texture.
ReplyDeleteLove those delicate blue flowers.....beautiful card!
