Enter Colour Me #96's GASPingly gorgeous inspiration photo!! Kept me dreaming all night last night ... take a look:
I only hope I've done it justice ... seriously.
You had to know I'd reach for my Paper Studios embossing folder - again! I LOve it - it was a bit tricky to match up the wood-grain, but worth the effort to try. To those of you who use Recollections papers ... this was made from the cardboard from a 12x12" package of paper. Gorgeous color, yes? Plus a bit of PTI Smokey Shadow, and Soft Stone.
Edited to gratefully add:
The old saying goes: third time's a charm ... so off this goes to Virginia's View: Texture... I think it is my favorite of your challenges so far, Virginia! =]
If this is your second stop over today ... thank you from the bottom of my heart!
