Priscilla's Papercrafts: Inspiration Sunday

Last week I shared this card, inspired by a painting I saw in a bookstore:

Today I have another card inspired by something I saw:

This pretty china was featured in a catalog from Sur La Table, and it was so lovely that I wanted to recreate it in a card.

What do you think?

I pulled out nearly every flower stamp I have and started inking them up. Jar of Love, Happy Birthday Gorgeous, Painted Harvest and the FREE Sale-a-Bration offering, Lots of Lavender were used in a variety of bright colors to mimic the pattern in the china.

All the flowers were initially stamped on a single piece of 4" x 5-1/4" Whisper White cardstock. But as I started playing with the layout of the card, I decided to slice the piece into three strips. Although I planned to adhere them to Melon Mambo and then to a Thick Whisper White base, I found I liked the strips layered just on the pink. Striking, don't you think?

Yup, inspiration is everywhere--take a look around and see what inspires you to create. I'll be sharing my Inspiration Sunday each week; come back and see what else has tickled my fancy!
