sooooooo, what can you do with this inspiration?
absolutely HOT, right? well, we want you to make SOMETHING that reflects some of the elements or the mood of this collage (brought to you by the lovely Ally!), and show us! play with the colours, or the images, or the words, or the way it's laid out... we aren't fussy - just PLAY!normally i create a page for my art journal, and occasionally i scrap, but this time i was inspired to make a card. see, i had been eyeballing this stamp for a WHILE, and was totally GIDDY when i saw it for sale as on its own (rather than in a set) during my trip up to Canada a couple of weeks ago. WOOT!
i lurrrrrved the colours Ally chose - that blue is HOT, and the black and white just makes it pop even more! - and the little doodly hearts, and the happy little sentiment, and i even played up the way the photos are framed... here she be:
inspired? well if not by me, then you will DEFINITELY be inspired by our other Nerdy Girls, including the newest addition to our team, Emmeli - she's AMAZING, and a perfect fit for Envious! (Welcome, Em!)
