Fusion Card Challenge - 'Poppies'


Happy Thursday..... and welcome to the newest Fusion Card Challenge, 'Poppies'!! The inspiration photo is quite lovely, with it's soothing floral vignette....but that sketch is pretty great too! So, which will you choose as your inspiration?

My project, taking inspiration from the photo, focuses on the creamy shiplap background, the beautifully hued florals (loving the sage/coral/yellow color combo!) and the lovely vintage-y pitcher/watering can.....with just a few teeny tiny pearls for added interest.  A postage frame and the perfect sentiment are the finishing touches on this CAS card.

The DT has created lots of lovelies, so be sure to hop on over and join the party! When playing along you may use the sketch OR the photo as you jumping off point. OR, if you are feeling super duper clever, you can fuse 'em together.





We hope that you'll join in at the Fusion Card Challenge and will enjoy all of the loveliness from the DT and the always amazing gallery!

Fusion Card Challenge - 'Bee Kind''

Happy Thursday..... and welcome to the newest Fusion Card Challenge, 'Be Kind'!! The inspiration photo is quite lovely, with a beautiful blue background and buzzing bee....but that sketch is pretty great too! So, which will you choose as your inspiration?

My project, taking inspiration from the photo, focuses on the soft blues and a trio of petite bees.....with a few sparkle-y jewels for added interest.  A scalloped frame and the perfect sentiment are the finishing touches on this CAS card.

The DT has created lots of lovelies, so be sure to hop on over and join the party! When playing along you may use the sketch OR the photo as you jumping off point. OR, if you are feeling super duper clever, you can fuse 'em together.




We hope that you'll join in at the Fusion Card Challenge and will enjoy all of the loveliness from the DT and the always amazing gallery!
