Altenew June Inspiration Challenge

Altenew-June2019-Inspiration


The June 2019 Inspiration Challenge at Altenew is a beauty - well. aren't they always?  My friend [and yours] Virginia Lu is hosting the challenge this month!  Hope you've seen her gorgeous card! 

Today I've used a new-to-me set called Focus on You stamp and die bundle that I bought to coordinate with the Celebrations set I've used [to death].  Take a peek … my frame is a stand-in for that urn, and it's fanciful shape mimics the goose's feathers!  Tell me if you agree...


Copics: R37, Y35 and 38, and YG93 for the greens
Splattered with Altenew water color pan set
 
Hope you have something fun to look forward to this weekend!  Thanks for spending your hard earned time with me, and for leaving such kind words!  Much appreciated, my friends!
