Knowing how I love my challenge blogs, imagine my excitement when I found out that there was a new one about to start up! I found the link on my lovely friend Kasey's blog and was even more excited when I found out they are still looking for a few more Design Team members! The challenge was to create a project taking inspiration from this picture ...
I quite like these types of challenges, they allow for lots of variation, you can take the colours, the layout, the theme, or anything really that inspires you.
I was inspired by the colours and by the lovely bright pink flowers. I just knew I wanted to use my new Triple Layer Flower Punch for this one, and what better than yellow and orange brads to give them cute little centre. I mixed it up a bit and used the blue of the jug as the inspiration for my Baja Blue background card and dsp, and the orange from the wall for my vase. I made the vase out of the Ornament Punch with the bottom cut off and stamped with a small flourish from Tiny Tags stamp set. Then it was simply layering the flowers in Rose Red and Melon Mambo.
I hope you like my creation, and entry into the design team, and are inspired to join in with this new challenge blog. Pop over to Paper Lovin' Gals (don't you just love the name) and join in, or at the very least see what everyone else has created with this lively picture as inspiration.
Happy Stamping
