CFTMB Card #2

Okay, there was just too much darn inspiration in that photo, so I'm back with a second card for the Cure for the Monday Blues Challenge.   For this oneI used the dripping paint on the cake as my inspiration.   

I used a Tim Holtz stencil along with Distress Paint to get the splotches.   After I had it done, I decided I really wanted a more "wet paint" look, so I went back over my splotches with Versamark (through the stencil) and then heat embossed with clear embossing powder.   It looks pretty cool, IRL!   Some bold colored layers of cardstock and some Viva Decor dots finished the card off!

Cure for the Monday Blues Challenge Card!

Ooooh, now isn't this inspiration photo delicious!    When I saw Taheera's Cure for the Monday Blues challenge this week, I HAD to play along!    

Those awesome decorations along with the flowers in the foreground were my inspiration for this card.   I used punches to create the flowers out of tissue paper and Papertrey cardstock, and the leaf die is PTI's Turning a New Leaf. The centers are done with Viva Decor pens.  The bright colors make me happy!!
