Hi everyone and welcome to a fabulous inspiration hop!! You should have arrived from Kay's blog, if not be sure to start at Stamp TV, you don't want to miss a thing!! Carolina gave us this great inspiration piece:
My inspiration came from Premier 5, I just loved the colors and knew Melanie's Spring Basket set would be perfect!! The other day I was looking through some of Gina's videos and thought her Weathered Wood technique would be fun for the basket, I hadn't tried it until I made this card and now I've done it a couple of times, it is really a fun technique!! I let the paper sit for quie a while to be sure it was dry and embossed the basket, the flowers were colored with Copics, a couple of them I colored a second time and attached with foam tape. I scored a few lines above, below and then middle and added a couple tiny strips of dp from the newest Stamp TV kit. I embossed the hello stamp from Stenciled Spring, love this font!!
Be sure to head over to Melissa's blog to see what she has for you to see!!
