Ten Minute Monday

Today's card is one that was completely inspired by the fabulous Heather Pulvirenti. She has such a fun style, lots of good CAS cards, lots of very detailed and more complex stuff too (something for everyone!) When I saw that card, I just loved it and so I filed it into my "Inspiration" folder.

If you have a ridiculously large hard-drive, this is something you might want to consider doing. If I see something I really like, I save it to an Inspiration folder. These photos go nowhere, I would never post them online! In some cases, what people post sometimes gets taken down for a publication, this way you still have it. They are there whenever I need a little creative boost. This is also another reason why I love it when people have watermarks. If I'm inspired by something months old, I can give credit where credit is due.

So here's the card, I went with a different orientation, a different floral image, and a different colour scheme, but I think it's apparent how the original card inspired me. I made this card a few weeks ago, but now that I'm focusing on it, I kind of what to make a few more in different colours!
