Inspiration Challenge!

Oh it's great to be back to regular card making! This card is a two-fer: today's Inspiration Challenge -- see the inspiration info here MacKenzie-Childs -- and Joan Irvin's Doubledog Dare Challenge for this week. Joan wanted us to get out those Spring stamps -- flowers, butterflies, spring things!! I am so so glad to oblige!! I love flowery stamps, butterflies, and all things girly!! I made this card using some of my awesome wallpaper. Yes!! It's wallpaper from one of my many discontinued wallpaper sample books...and I'm gonna use it to death!!! You wait and see! I cut out a set of flowers from one of the wallpaper designs and placed it over a panel that I had stamped with Print Pattern from SU. Then stamped the "Thanks" from Illuminations in Versamark and embossed with black EP. Matted onto another black panel and it was done. Does this say Spring to you Joan? Sweet Dreams everyone!! Anne

very nicely done for the challenge. I've used wallpaper in the past for altered things...you've got me looking at those heavy books in a whole new way!

Happy Weekend, and so glad you have more time to play with us.

Beautiful! I love the way you used your wallpaper on a diagonal tilt and the print pattern underneath! What lovely colors!

Beautiful card, now that's how wall paper should be used!
