There are some really beautiful photos on today’s Inspiration Challenge site! After much consideration, I chose THIS picture for my inspiration. It reminded me of this 2 step watercolor image I had & also because I actually have some photos of that same tree. We visited there a while back & it was a little sad to hear that part of that tree was damaged in a storm recently.

My card is pretty simple..I scribbled some water based Tombow Markers onto the solid ground part of the image, misted & stamped onto a textured watercolor paper. I did the same to the tree & little grasses. I used my Misti to stamp each of these several times so I could get a good variance of color on the images. Then I added a couple of frames w/ ovals die cut out of the center & four die cut photo corners.

Here’s the inside & the markers I used.

A big congrats to Sharon, the newest Featured Stamper (FS633) on Splitcoast! Sharon has an absolutely wonderful gallery & she’s such a sweet lady. I chose THIS card to case. I kept the cute dinosaur theme but used different images & dies, turned mine horizontal & made it a birthday card

For my old dino birthday card, after coloring & die cutting all the images, I used a deckled rectangle die & deckled hills dies to cut the white front & little hills. The edges were sponged w/ Distress inks & the greeting added to a stitched cloud.

Here’s the inside & below it are the Copics I used.

For the Inspiration Challenge (IC698), we’re going to the Country Door & I chose THIS for my inspiration. That little pig really made me smile 😀 

My card is pretty CAS. I used a stencil & the pink Distress inks to partially sponge the card front. I stamped the Easter piggy, masked him & used a straight mask across the ground & partially sponged the green inks upward from mask. After removing the masks, I colored everything & stamped the greeting. Here’s the inside & below it are the Copics I used.
