City Crafter 332

Hi there ... 
I'm due to fly home today so this is another scheduled post...

Stella is hosting our challenge at City Crafter this week and she's picked a photo Inspiration challenge for us


There's quite a bit to go on there, the colours the twine the envelopes...
Here's my take...


I used my paints for the background to capture all the colours in the objects
and seeing the envelopes, I stamped on top with a postal themed stamp 


...A little bit of twine on the tag - also picked out from the photo and the deer was added for interest and also to capture the black areas in the photo


We'd love to see what you come up with ... The team have more inspiration on the City Crafter Blog for you and this week our Guest Designer is Agnieszka Kieler ... Click the link to visit her blog, it's well worth a visit, she makes beautiful creations!

Wishing you all a fabulous day

Till soon

This background reminds me of the Norhern Lights (eben though I think I've only seen them in green or violet so far??) - it's gorgeous! What a wonderful card.

You used every detail of the photo inspiration and it;s jaw dropping gorgeous. The neutral paletten paired up with lots of white and that - my favorite item on this card - stinkin'cute deer. So lovely!
