And here is my card:
Our sponsor is Bugaboo Stamps and the prize is 7 images of the winner's choice. I got to work with this adorable penguin image. Obviously, it was the place to start for my inspiration. Then I went directly to the damask pattern in the background, 'cause I am completely a damask girl. LOVE it! I really want to use turquoise damask but I didn't have any paper that color, so I went with this stunning paper from Bearly Mine and a coordinating dotted paper (there are lots of dots in the inspiration photo) also from Bearly Mine. Now it's your turn. How will you interpret our photo?Challenges:
