For our TIME OUT challenge this week, we are asking you to create projects inspired by this picture:
So much inspiration in this picture - I thought about using that beautiful rattan texture but decided to focus on the picture above the sofa and came up with this card:
A really simple design - I used a bird from Stamplorations Trendy Birds and an embossing pen to draw the line before heat embossing in clear EP. I then used shimmery watercolours to paint the background. I ironed off the melted EP to make a smooth finish.
Stamplorations is our sponsor for this challenge - generously providing a $15 gift voucher for the winner and a gift bag of goodies for a random entry!
Our wonderful Guest Designer this challenge is Heather from Wire Wrapture so make sure you stop by to see her designs.
Thanks for stopping by!

ReplyDeleteLove the two different backgrounds you created with watercolor. And, that embossed bird looks gorgeous on his perch.
ReplyDeleteYour backgrouns is so awesome. I love the way it mimics the wall piece in the inspiration photo. Wonderful idea to use that wonderful bird. Such a great take on the inspiration, Jill. I love it.
