A Kept Life: Fusion - I Say A Prayer

It's time for a brand new Fusion Card Challenge! I love playing challenges whenever I can. I really enjoy seeing the inspiration photo or sketch through different eyes. It's what makes us all interesting and unique. Normally I am attracted to the inspiration photo before the sketch. I can look at a photo and sometimes (if lightning strikes) I'll know exactly what stamp set or die I want to work with.

Somehow this time I wasn't feeling the stacked chairs. I do have several chair dies, but it wasn't coming together for me. Looking at the chairs a little closer I picked up on the woodwork on their backs. It looked intricate with lots of open areas like a die cut. I was also attracted to their pretty colors.

Here's what I made this time..

I started with a watercolor panel. I used bright rainbow colors like the ones on the chairs. I topped that with a pretty, intricate panel die from Reverse Confetti. This one is called Leaves.

The stamped flowers are from Blooms 'n Buds. This is a two step flower - I used only the detail stamp on a plain white card stock coordinating die cut. I love the drama of the black on white.

The sentiment is from the My Heart Trusts set. It's got me singing Dione Warwick "I say a little prayer for you".. am I showing my age?
