Crafty Creations Challenges #162 - Photo Inspiration - Happy Birthday Princess

Hello everyone.  This week's Crafty Creations Challenge #162 is Group 1's challenge but when I saw this lovely inspiration photo I just had to give it a go!!

I focused on the pink pattern with the little flowers, the banner in the background, and the gold crown.  Here is what I ended up with!

Very different from my typical style ...

A fun collage of items - embossed crown (French Country Postage - Gel a tins), hand-made rolled flower, little heart button!!

and this is only my 2nd time making a banner! 

Now you need to go see what everyone else did with this great inspiration photo - go to Crafty Creations Challenges.  And then once you are inspired, give it a go to win from In 2 Stamps.

Inspired by ... Barb - Fun-gi

So my blogging buddy BARB is a fantastic card maker.  I am always so inspired by her creations!  I've collected some of her cards and she has said I can use them for inspiration here on my blog.  Here is the first card.  Check out that awesome banner!! 

Can you believe this is the FIRST banner I've made!  It was so much fun!!  I printed off these colours (from an old Hero Arts colour challenge) and stamped various images on some of the banners (Guide Lines and Polka Dot Basics II - both Papertrey Ink).

Then I added this great 'shroom image and sentiment (from Unity Stamps).  I did some paper pieceing for the mushroom and added subtle dots on the top with my Versamark marker. 

Fun, fun, fun!

I have some more inspiration cards from Barb that will show up on my blog over the course of the year.

Thanks for visiting my little piece of the www

Wishes and Banners

I created these banners based on the ones you can buy at Papertrey Ink ... of course I don't own them and have to make them by hand!!  Used 2 different black markers with different sized tips for the double lines around the banners.

I have used a card by Anya as inspiration but can't for the life of me find the link!!  Sheesh. Sorry Anya but thanks for hte inspiration!!  If anyone has the link, please share!!

Thanks for visiting.
