Beate asked me to participate in her Inspiration Challenge and I was very excited to say yes! Check out the inspiration item:
.....these are definitely not colors that I normally would gravitate to so I had to think 'outside the box' on this one just a bit, but I think it worked out ok in the end. :) IRL, the colors of this card look very similar to the colors of the cutting board!
To get the colors just right, I used real red ink on the sahara sand paper, but the strip of red cardstock you see is actually ruby red. I also stamped the French Script stamp off once before stamping it on my card base, so the Elegant Eggplant ink wouldn't be quite so dark.
What do you think? Be sure to check out Beate's card - she's also got links to the other girls on the Inspiration Challenge Team that participated in this Inspiration Challenge!
Thanks Beate for letting me 'play'!
