An EtsyInspired Paper Play....

The EtsyInspired challenge blog is celebrating it's 100th challenge this week and they have some really super cool prizes to give away.   The Etsy shop that we were to get our inspiration from is Cathy Walter's shop.  Her shop is full of neat little pendants.   For my inspiration I chose this little pendant.  For further inspiration I turned to the current Paper Play challenge recipe of three flowers, two designer papers, one ribbon and one charm.   I have been trying to make a card using all those items for the last week.   The first card had the three flowers, charm & ribbon, but no designer paper.   The 2nd card had the designer paper, ribbon and charm, but no flowers!  Finally I got it right!

I used BasicGrey Origins papers for my card, which is kinda funny because I did my first EtsyInspired challenge last week and used the Origins papers for that card, too.   But they are pretty sweets papers and so fun to use.  The sunflower image is from a new to me stamp company called Repeat Impressions.  On July 28th, the same day I won "Win a Day" from Hero Arts, I won a $25.00 gift certificate from Repeat Impressions!  How cool is that???!!!  I stamped the flower three times and colored it with my Copic markers.  The card layout is loosely based on a sketch from Clean & Simple.

Thanks for taking a peek.... enjoy your day and check out the 100th EtsyInspired challenge... you could win a fabulous prize!
