A little Inspiration

I loved looking at all the gorgeous entries for the Take Flight theme, but it's now September already, which means it's time for a new challenge at Stampalot, and this month we have some

Photo Inspiration

Your creation can be anything you like as long as it is inspired by the photo. It would also be helpful to us if you could say in what way the photo inspired you.

Here's the photo


And here's the fab prize which you could win, generously donated as usual by Sir and Lady Stampalot!


For my card, I took inspiration from the woman and child, and the flowers they are holding. I used a picture from a Crafty Individuals book, mounted onto a Nestie frame which was stamped with Rubber Stamp Tapestry stamps, to echo the design on the background paper, which was a freebie from Quick Cards Made Easy magazine. I made some lace into a flower and topped it with a floral button. The sentiment is by Waltzing Mouse.




Do pop over to the Challenge Blog and have a look at what my lovely teamies have created. I think they've really excelled themselves this month. I look forward to seeing lots of entries, and good luck everyone!
