A New Challenge [for me]

I found a challenge in Bloglovin that I was instantly inspired by.  I have said this before, but it needs saying again, a "card" doesn't usually come to my mind.  When it does, as in today's 2 cards, I jump up and go create.  [I need to take advantage of my short brain retention :).]

The challenge is BE Inspired #53 over at The Alley Way.  You need to use at least 1 TAW image and fortunately for me, they have a few digis you can use.

Yep, these are the digis I used.  I love that the star looks like a die cut!  I used Laura Basson's water color technique, ink up an acrylic pad, spritz with water, and stamp onto water color paper.  I LOVE THIS EFFECT!!  I used the rough side of my water color paper to get the textured look.  I am also entering this into the Just Add Ink Challenge; water coloring.

I then went on to create another card.  Again, this popped into my mind.  [Really, I can't tell you how I love it when an idea actually comes to my mind!]

I love this card too!  So clean and bright.  [I do have to say it does remind me of Ardyth's stunning creations.]

I had such a fun time with this challenge!  Ink to paper that works! :)

I am also, once again, playing around with my photography. I really like the blurred background that [my idol] Debby Hughes creates.  I haven't gotten there yet...
