Hi Friends! I hope you are having a great day! I can't believe it's March already. I'm anxiously awaiting the arrival of Spring! We got hit with more snow last night - yes again! Only about 3" but enough to have to shovel. If you watched the Chicago Black Hawks play yesterday then you saw the snow coming down! It was so strange to see them playing outside!
Today I'm playing along with the challenge at Fusion. If you haven't played there they have a pretty intresting challenge. Check out the inspiration for the challenge this time. You can use the images and colors in the photos, or you can use the sketch. I always like to try to use both. I was inspired by the color and tried to pick up a few of the elements in the photos like the stripes and lace on the purse in the photos and the bird in the tree. Here's what I came up with.
f you'd like to play along you still have lots of time - it's a two week challenge. Maybe I'll see you at Fusion Card Challenge. Have a great day and stay warm!!

GASP Jeanne! This is absolutely my favourite card that you have ever made to date! Wow wow wow, just stunning, the curves and the movement is amazing!
love that flowing curve with the sweet border. I think you used the perfect paper for that with the vertical
lines!! Awesome!
Jeanne your card is gorgeous! I love your color combination. You did a great job with the fusion of this challenge. I empathize with you about wanting winter to end as I'm just above you in WI, bring on summer!
OH Jeanne, = ME gasping, you taking that turquoise and the mellow yellow, pairing all together with the lovely DP, awesome choices, a FEAST for my eyes! A Dream.
Your card = ALL of us are inspired!
PS Thanks for Joining us at FUSION! I was distracted by all the loveliness!
Ohhh...Ohhh...Ohhh...three Ohhh's for this beautiful card Jeanne. Did you use a leaf for the wing on the bird? So smart! I can't see this not being one of the winners...I love that patterned paper on the curved piece...looks like ornate, elegant wallpaper. You totally nailed the sketch and the photo with the great colors. I even see some piercing! Really, really great card!
This is just beautiful. You did an incredible job fusing the photo and the sketch. Thus far, I am stumped by both, so I am doubly impressed.
