City Crafter 295

Well hello!

It's my turn to host the challenge at City Crafter this week and I have chosen a photo inspiration challenge for us


Create a card or project taking inspiration from this photo and tell us what inspired you
It could be the colours, teapot, snowdrops or even the numbers...

Based on the colours, here's what I came up with .. This card was sent to a dear blog friend who recently got a new job


I love shades of grey and the pattern on the teapot made me think of this digital paper I have from Pink Petticoat...


I got in the green and the shade of those Palmier biscuits translated into those sweet little birds


Our Guest designer this week is the lovely Dora Dora was our winner in week 289 - Do go visit her blog she makes beautiful cards and don't forget to visit the City Crafter blog too ... We have lots more inspiration for you there and we are looking forward to seeing what you come up with ...

Have a wonderful Day!

Fabulous interpretation of the photo. The background paper is perfect all set off beautifully by the leaves, birds and shaker. Great attention to detail as always x

Beautiful card Ros and fabulous inspiration photo! I initially read the color on the teapot as blue, but the gray stands out on second look - age?? LOVE the little birds.
