New Challenge at Inkspirational!

Hi friends!

Weeks go by so quickly these days... It's time for a new challenge at Inkspirational! I hope you are all staying safe and feeling well. In Finland we have the schools opening again on 14th of May which means a lot to many children and to the their parents too I'm sure. So a glimpse of improvement in sight here! 

Our new challenge is a photo inspiration:

Lots to be inspired here, right!

I went with the obvious and chose pink flowers... To me the dark windows really popped from the photo too so I wanted to bring lots of black to my design as well. 

I've stamped the Altenew flowers on black Memento on Neenah card and colored them with Copics. I then masked the flowers and inked the background with Black Soot distress ink. I had my flower stamp left in my stamping tool so I then stamped the image again with black Versafine and heat embossed it with clear powder to make my black outlines stand out more from the black background again. I was pretty terrified when re-stamping but luckily I had good results! White heat embossed sentiment (also Altenew), paint splatters and clear sequins finished the card. This was a pretty time consuming card (coloring the image, cutting lots of small masks and inking with black, that took some elbow grease!) but I do love the results!

Hope you like, thanks for popping by and I look forward seeing you play along at Inkspirational!
