Just Us Girls Challenge #476 - Photo Inspiration

Very pretty photo this week.

For once, I got lucky taking a photograph and actually having the purple turn out purple! ;)  I used one of the freebies I got at CHA, Beautiful Flowers 2 from Simon Says.  Wow, this is a really large stamp!  I cut it out from my Scan & Cut [how awesome is that machine!], colored it with my Copics, and then adhered and cut it to fit on my card base.  I will be honest, like you can't tell, but goodness, I need to get better with my coloring!  I do get frustrated when my markers run low on ink and I don't have the correct refill of the color I need! Grrr...   Meanwhile though, I was inspired by the purple and this image really is quite perfect.

Your turn - how does the photo inspire you?  Come on over to Just Us Girls Challenge and play along!  The gallery should be really pretty this week.


Thanks for stopping by~

This is an amazing design and a perfect take on the photo, Vicki! Makes me wonder why we don't see more vibrant purple flowers in card land ~ this is stunning! Enjoy your Sunday! Hugs, Darnell

Purple has to be the hardest to photograph and I'm glad it worked for you, Vicki. I love the variety of purples that you used.
