What an eclectic mix of images we had to choose from today for the Inspiration Challenge. I finally chose the Catch Your Breath Shirt because I liked the bright floral pattern. The name is also good advice, lol. If you've been running around like crazy the past couple of weeks like I have, then it's time to catch your breath!
All images are FireCracker Designs. All the flowers were stamped on portions of the Kpad Berry Blaze and cut out. The leaves were stamped on sections of Kpad Caribbean Sea and cut out. I used the Spellbinders circle nestie set to cut/emboss the center w/ the greeting and also the larger outer ring which I used to layer my flowers and leaves on top. The greeting circle and outer ring were both edged w/ a magenta marker and I cut duplicate shapes out of cardboard and attached underneath to give them just a little lift.
The plain white front is attached to a dk purple layer then a bright magenta layer, then attached to a white card. A drop of Liquid Pearls was added to the centers of the flowers.
Thanks so much for looking!
