For Your Inspiration


Isn't this just stunning! Living in Arizona, I can tell you, this screams Sedona, Arizona. Those gorgeous red rocks -- beautiful place to visit if you ever get the chance. Meanwhile, here is my card:


Ahhhhhhhhh, just heaven~ being able to use my favorite turquoise! I used big daubers for my sponging [they make for much easier blending], and my stamp images and sentiment are from Innovative Stamp Creations.

Pop on over to For Your Inspiration Challenge, and play [if you are so inspired] :). While you are there, check out the rest of the team. You are in for a huge treat!

Thanks for stopping by~

Vicki, these are totally awesome - the picture and the card!!!!!! We are so lucky to live in a state with beautiful sunsets and sunrises ALL the time. You have captured the beauty of this picture in your card so very well. This one will be added to my inspiration file. Thanks for the tip about the big dauber. Very helpful. Have a wonderful day - hugs, Sharon :o)
