Happy Saturday, everyone! Saturday brings us to the Inspiration Challenge hosted by Stef, which is one of my favorite challenges.
I chose Kristen's Raspberry Treat platter from today's inspiration website LoveArtWorks Clay Pottery mostly because I was drawn to the vibrant blue raven in her design:
Kristen uses a lot of black/white line drawing with splashes of color on some of her designs, as well as a lot of bird images, so I brought all three of those elements into my design using an old SU hostess set. I relied heavily on my stamp-a-ma-jig to get the images lined up within the frames as well as for the solid image within that set to stamp the soft pastel colors over my images after I colored them with reinkers and a blender pen. I then cut each frame and adhered to a piece of black cardstock. I used my ScorPal for the scoring outside of the black frame. My card is 4 1/4" square.
TFL!

This card truly captures the spirit of the artist from today's web-site. The wavy lines that frame each image was a great choice in creating your design. Fabulous!
