Believe in yourself....

Oh yay...I got a chance to finally play along with my scrappy girl, Laurel's challenge, Inspired By. Her inspiration this week is this this photo, full of blue in honor of Autism.....

 I was really drawn to the less noticed color in this photo, the beige of the rug and the side table. So, I came up with this...

I used some old stuff on this one and some new CTMH goodies too. The blue is Moonstruck with matching ink. The beige is our Champagne. I ran it through the cuttlebug, then sanded it to expose the white. Then, I used my distressing sponge and lightly dabbed some of the blue ink on the swirls just randomly. I stamped the frame using the new Perfect fit frame from CTMH and cut it out with the Artiste cart. The little sentiment stamp is also retied, but I love it. It is from the Be Happy set. It is stamped in Champagne also. I finished it off with some blue ribbon from my stash and 2 bitty pearls. 

Mom...

Good Monday....today is a new reveal at the Rose Blossom Garden challenge. This challenge will focus on using the Happy Mother's Day key on the Artiste cartridge. I created this dainty little box, just perfect for a sweet Pandora charm for my Mom.....

 I used the Accent 1 3D Tulip Box key and some soft feminine Clementine papers, Sorbet ink, bitty pearls and one flower from the WOTG set. The ribbon is CTMH retired from years ago.....more of that hoarded stash. ;)
Don't forget that our winner for April will receive this Perfect Frame set.

I hope to see you playing along with us this time!!!!
