This week's inspiration challenge was rather outside my usual style, but perfect for these Graphic 45 papers. I chose this lamp from the Relique website: http://www.relique.com/pair-of-vinta...le-lamps-sold/. The whip-stitched shade with patterned leaves on cream looked neat. I haven't tried faux whip stitching before, but it worked out well for the card's main image panel. A fun challenge.
