Hello,
I REALLY like photo inspiration challenges like this from Caardvarks, for example:
When I saw it, I knew exactly which paper I will use: Basic Grey. Well, it was not easy though, because the pastel colors are kind of my weakness. I usually like heavy, darker papers: old olive, brown, dark red. But it's called challenge, right! Then-let's craft!
I used the sketch from JUG #23 and below you can see my take of those challenges.
For me the style is almost too sweet, but it has to be, because the card is for a sweet person =).......
Her name is Clio and she is one of the 3 girls, I took care of, when I was Au-pair 13 years ago...O my Gosh..... I think, I calculated wrong....No.... that's true, 13 years ago! She is turning 15 in few days! When I came to the Au-pair family, Clio was 1,5 y.o. and we have a lot of fun together. I hope to see her soon again!
I remember as a good-bye gift she drew for me a picture with my face. On the face there were a lot of dots. I asked her what she meant with that. She said they are my pimples. And indeed: I suffered from acne many years. Children are so honest, right?
A propos children: Jakob was playing yesterday with a kitchen plastic bowl for almost an hour, giggling including. I recorded a lot of short movies. I can't believe, how kids are interested in such a simple things instead of fancy toys. The best toys are the simplest!
Take care,

Delikatna, subtelna! :*

ReplyDeleteA co do dzieciecych zabaw - rozumiem fascynacje Jakoba w 100% :))Zuzia miala faze na łyzki kuchenne, takie duze, do nalewania zupy. Jedną nawet kilka razy zabrala ze soba na spacer i dumnie wywijała nią, jadąc w wózku. To dopiero sie ludzie dzwili... :)
Very beautiful card! Great take on both the inspiration photo & Dana's sketch! I like the rhinestone trim around the butterflies. Thanks for playing along with Just Us Girls sketch challenge :) Hope you can come play on Saturday!
