Time Out #144 Home Sweet Home

I've had a paper in my stash just waiting for the perfect Challenge... I think I found it ...
 
Tell me I could be right about this one.
 
 
That room is so cool, right?  but it's the little pot/spot of bright green that caught my eye - well, I'll be honest - first was that hand but that awesome Stephanie beat me to it!!
 
Happy Saturday!!

You waited 6 years but you found the perfect project for your Glitz pp. Think you have a winner here, girl. Also appears we have the same products in out stashes...love that Penny Black stamp especially with the vivd green foliage. You managed to get my favorite, dry embossing, technique in there, too. AWESOME!

Yes you are right with this one my friend....Stunning inspiration and one stand out card x. The black and the white with the pop of vibrant green is so very striking x.

Marcia Hill said...

Yep, the paper is PERFECT for this card and your beautiful greenery is spot on! LOVE this card Michele!! :0)

That pop of green is the most fabulous thing about that inspiration photo and Your card translates it perfectly.

Maybe just a few fingers peeking out from behind the pot plant would have worked lol. Great take on the inspiration my friend!

sandie said...

yep you sure got the right challenge for the paper and I adore how you picked out the pot of flowers-you made it almost the same and so pleased Stephanie inspired you like this-super pleased you joined us at Time Out x

Jeanne said...

Great pick with that paper and the fine details in it! Love the great pop of green, too! Wowza!

Stephanie Lanzalotto said...

I had the same though as Gerda about the hand sticking out of your gorgeous greenery, LOL. Then my mind went here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTEVBcmPzk4 LOL! I love your take on the photo. That paper is perfect, and your pot of greens is just beautiful.

Stephanie Lanzalotto said...

Oh yes, and I forgot to say, that it is always a joy to see you at Time Out, and everywhere else!

Bonnie said...

These old eyes have trouble focusing on that green detail, Michele. Thanks for pointing it out to me and what a fantastic way to interpret this photo! You certainly did have the most perfect paper and the embossed stitching caught my eye right away. Maybe these old eyes aren't quite as bad as I thought!

JulieP said...

I bought that hand solely because your cards made me do it. LOL! I always love a good b/w stripe.

Bobby said...

Spot on, Michele. I mean stripe on. ;)

Joyce said...

Absolutely perfect paper, as you say. Love this bold and fun design. Very cool to focus on the green flowers, and I like the big of texture you snuck in at the top of the card. Thanks so much for playing along at Time Out.

Love the pop of bright green against the black & white stripe background, Michele! The stitch die impression is a subtle and wonderful touch.
