IT’S TIME TO BE {INK}SPIRED!

Hello dear crafters! Today is Wednesday so that means it is time for a little {ink}spiration from Inkspirational’s challenge #29. It's the third week of our challenge month and that means we've got a CASE for you to be inkspired by (and surprise, surprise! The inspirational CASE card is by ME!)

I know you will want to see all the gorgeous creations from our DT so be sure to check out their cards at Inspirational to be inspired! Now here is my DT card.

(A2; Butterfly: Silhouette; Border Punch: Martha Stewart; Lace: Really Reasonable Ribbon; White flower: Inspired by Stamping)

I wanted to stick to the same basic colors, but then decided to go with gold and green. I kept the same background (made using the Wax Paper Resist technique), the flourish, the vertical band and the flower. I decided on no sentiment on this card because it is going to Operation Write Home and the soldiers need cards that can be used for any occasion. 

Thanks for stopping by! I can’t wait to see what you do with the CASE!

Here's our photo inkspiration~
