I have wanted to make a card for the CT1214 challenge to use colors from the cool side of the color wheel...we can all use a little "calm" after the holidays. I never enter the IC because I can never link back to my inspiration. I have to go to the swap meet with DH in a few minutes and I wanted to upload this, so I will be back to edit this afternoon,and hopefully, this amazing Paper and Art Sculpture link will appear. My inspiration was a gorgeous white hummimg bird flying over a white flower against a dark bkg. I never heat emboss because I get blobs where they don't belong, but this was the only way to get my image to show up against the bkg. I usually use silhouetts stamps with black ink against my bright bkgs, so this web site encouraged me to try white...I like it. For the WT512, my something new is this set of flower stamps - I love the whimsical feel. Finally, for the F4A433 Anything Goes, this was one of those unplanned, "winging it" type of cards. The sun is out and I am off to the swsp meet. Unfortunately,
they don't have any craft stuff. TFL, Francie
Here is the link to the hummingbird sculpture that was my inspiration - https://www.flickr.com/photos/papernoodle/5280873039/

Beautiful, Francie - it's like batik with your wonderful coloured background. And now I know how amazing your spray backgrounds are in real life, I can imagine that it really does look like fabric!
