March 2018 Inspiration Challenge

Hi everyone!

It's Virginia here with the March 2018 Inspiration Challenge!

This month we are doing a little virtual traveling to one of the most scenic spots in the world!

My family and I took a cruise in 2014 to Santorini, Greece. This was one of the snapshots from the beautiful island of Oia. I drew the inspiration from the blue-domed church and rooftop structures. It was amazing to soak in the sun and feel the amazing sea air. Under the hot sun, we strolled around narrow streets alongside a donkey! From this iconic photo, you can find the colors Blue, Coral and Light Brown.

With that, I came up with the idea of creating a colorful floral background with the Frosted Garden Stamp Set.

With the help of a stamp positioner, I stamped the images with Dusk, Dew Drops, and Aqualicious for the foliage and used Coral Bliss and Pink Pearl for the flowers. This can be done easily, especially with the Mini Ink Cubes.

Once I finished stamping, I made the die cut with the beautiful “Thinking of You” Die. I then swiped Caramel Toffee Crisp Dye Ink onto the white cardstock.

For the sentiment, I made three “Thinking of You” die cut pieces. For the one on top, I added a strip of Silver Glitter Tape before I ran it through the Mini Blossom Die Cutting Machine.

I hope that this post inspires you to be creative! You can make yours floral, modern, cutesy or geometric – the sky is the limit! I am looking forward to seeing your take on this challenge!
