I am swinging by to share a card inspired by the latest Runway Inspired Challenge. This was a fun one, don't know why exactly!
I brought out the spray mists, and set to colorizing the front of the card using the colors represented on her dress.
As a last touch, I noticed she was wearing a gold bracelet, so I scattered some fabulous gold sequins onto the card!
Here is a look at the picture.
So, my sweet 5 year old loves to get crafty while I am busy doing the same, and he really wanted to make a card using the inspiration picture too. I had started inking up a panel of cardstock, and just didn't like the way it looked so I was going to pitch it. Jonathan had to have it, and turned it into a card! I said I would share it on my blog, so here it is! :0) My husband says he should start a child art blog. What a great idea!
Thanks so much for stopping by today, have a great one!

Oh, I love this Lindsay!! You have a great eye to see that tiny gold bracelet! Love the embossed/stamped branch - I always forget about that technique, but it's def one of my faves!!
ReplyDeleteWhile I like your card, I think your son would win the challenge. There's nothing greater than the free motion of children's art.
ReplyDeleteYour card is wonderful--I love all those sprayed colors. However, the biggest claps today need to go to your sweet son. He has inherited your talent, and I just love the card he made.
ReplyDeleteBoth of your cards are such fun! Love the way you impressed yours~
ReplyDeleteWhat cool cards. Your son's would make an amazing background...he's SO talented already. I can totally see it with a simple die cut sentiment against it. WOW, he obviously gets his talent from his mom! Love the idea of a child's art blog. I could see my boys getting into that! ;)
ReplyDeleteYour card is GORGEOUS, Lindsay!! I love the color splashes and the use of black diecut! Your 5-year old can totally have a blog, better yet, I love the side by side inspiration that you both have (such as this one here)! I must say that the apple does not fall far from the tree! What a brilliant design for a 5-year old! Thanks for joining the fun with us at Runway Inspired Challenge!
ReplyDeleteHow cool - both of your art works!
ReplyDeleteAmazing cards Lindsay! The way you colored it is outstanding! Your son did a marvelous job as well...he is so creative, I will not be surprise if he will be like Tim Holtz one day *wink.*
