H2H Photo Inspiration Challenge 2-26-12


This week's H2H challenge is to find inspiration from the lovely room above and go with it! Though I'm somewhat drawn to that particular room, given that it is clearly loaded with style, I found it a bit challenging to figure out how to let it inspire me. In the end, I went with the colors and the overall feel as a guide. I was also trying to add in this week's Mojo Monday sketch so I could post my card there as well. Here's that sketch:


And here is my card. I went through all my Close To My Heart stamp sets looking for one I haven't used and one that would go with the feel I wanted to portray on this card, given the inspiration photo. I found Enjoy Life and had fun using it for the first time.
