LRW - Challenge #6 - Inspiration from a Photo


Today is Wednesday and of course we have released another challenge for the week on Little Red Wagon! This time Carolyn posted a Christmas Picture that we were to use as inpiration for completing the challenge! What a beautiful Pic! There was so much that stood out to me I had a hard time picking what I wanted to use... Here is the picture we used for the inspiration for our project!
First Off that beautiful Green Colour stood out to me the most so I used it in my Ribbon Choice, I also like the flourishes so it is hard to tell but I created Flourishes on some Black Cardstock using Versamark... I also loved the colour of Blue from this picture and I chose to make some Christmas ornaments out of this colour using my Take a Bough PTI Stamp Set. Here is what I came up with for my card!

Now since the inpriation picture had some shine to it... I added some Liquid applique and glitter to the tree branch to create a snow effect as well as some green bling to match my Ribbon! This is the first time I have created something from using inpiration from a picture! At first it caught me off guard but once I started finding items in the picture that I liked it just all started coming together!
