Are you ready for a challenge? Here's the latest inspiration photo from Fusion Card Challenge. I am more inspired by photos than anything else. When I saw this photo I thought it was fresh and how shall I say? "interesting"? I mean green, orange and purple hearts? For Valentines?!!! Don't get me wrong .. I loved the watercolor / stained glass look of the hearts in the photo, but I wasn't crazy about the colors and wan't sure if I'd be able to pull it off. No worries.. if you're just not feeling it then go with the sketch this time. I'm always trying (key word "trying") to be clever and incorporate the photo and the sketch together. This one took me a little trial and error, but in the end I really love the way it turned out.
We'd love to see you playing along - you can link up your design and get all the details here at Fusion Card Challenge! Hugs and have a great day !
