Inskpirations Inspiration Challenge # 5 with some Mojolicious!

Published by Makeesha at 1:10 pm under Cards, Inspiration Challenge, Keesh's Challenges

 Hi ya!

Well I have a new challenge for you, so have some fun with this! I have found a great inspiration image and I hope you like it too. It comes from www.adairs.com

Here is the inpiration image for you to work from:

And here is  my inspired creation:

(I can’t resist not giving you a close up of the BOUF!)

So for my card here I have actually used this weeks Mojo Monday #   sketch:

 So I have again used the BOUF to replicate the  big flowers in the quilt cover. I used River rock cardstock for the base that I have stamped with the Linen background stamp. I them found this DSP in my stash *which I can’t remember where I got it from (sorry :( ) which I have paper pierced borders around the outside. I added a knotted strip of wide Celery grosgrain ribbon too.

For the flower I first stamped it in Soft sky, then went over the outer petals with my Not quite navy marker, then kissed it with my Sanded background stamp that I inked up with Wild wasabi ink, and then I spritzed it wtih my water bottle. I was really happy with how it turned out.

I added the oval antique brass Hodgepodge piece, and stamped the word thank you from the Short and Sweet stamp set from Stampin’Up. Lastly I added 3 antique brass brads on the right hand side.

Want to play along?

If you would like to play along, all you need to do is follow the directions:

1. Make your creation following the challenge ie, sketch, colour, or inspiration image.

2. Load your creation up onto your blog or a public viewing forum like Splitcoast Stampers, with a direct link back to the post on this website, so that others viewing the post will know where the challenge has come from, and it is curtosy to do so.

3. Then come back to this post so that you can add your name and link in the Mr. Linky!

You have until the Thursday the 19th March midnight to get your entries linked.

I will pick a winner and an honourable mention on Friday 20th March

Have a fabulous weekend! 

Love Keesh

    Hi Keesh,
    Am trying your challenge for the first time. I have attempted to load onto Splitcoast and, if my cards end up there LOL, will try and do the next steps. Your card is beautiful, as always. What will you do without the BOUF????
