Card making, rubber stamping techniques and project videos for papercrafters

CSS Alumni Blog Hop - Inspiration Challenge

It's time for another CSS Alumni Blog Hop! This time we are having an Inspiration Challenge! I'm first on the list again this time so you should have arrived here from the StampTV forum.

Our challenge was to create a card or project inspired by this photo:

Here is the card I made for the challenge:

I was inspired by the colors and the pretty orchids. I stamped the orchid plant from Asela's Botanical Dreams onto Pure Luxury Layering Weight White and colored it with Copic markers. I highlighted the flower centers with glitter pens. The card base and mat are Pure Luxury Chocolate Brown and the patterned paper is from the Basic Grey Sultry pad. I finished it with some hot pink ribbon and lime green buttons from my stash.

Next you will definitely want to hop over to Carolina's blog to check out her awesome creation for the hop!

Thanks for stopping by!
