Hello crafty friends, it's Yoonsun here hosting the January 2017 Inspiration Challenge!!
Before I begin, Happy New Year dear friends! I hope you had a fantastic New Year's Eve with amazing fireworks or a toast of champagne!
Ok, so let's start our January challenge! I took this photo in Summer but those flowers do look a little like white snow, do they not? Christmas is already over, but we are still waiting for the snow :D
Here is what I came up with:
For my thank you card today, I used the Adore You Stamp Set as my main supply.
To start, I randomly stamped the flowers and leaves from the Adore You Stamp Set on an A2 sized watercolor paper panel using VersaFine Vintage Sepia pigment ink.
I then lightly touched the flowers with Antique Linen Distress ink & Gansai Tambi Watercolor No. 44 Light Brown. With Light Brown, I also colored the background.
For the sentiment, I die cut the word “Thank you” from the Woodgrain Bark card stock using the Majestic Bloom Die Set 3 times, and then glued them together.
Make a card, a tag, a layout or any other project based on the inspiration photo above. You may use either the colors, the composition, the elements, the texture or any combination to create your project.

- Altenew products should be the focus, but other companies’ products can be used.
