Inspiration Challenge....


Sunday can mean only one thing: time for another challenge on Dottie's World. This time the lovely Louise set the challenge and she chose for us to gain inspiration from a dreamy picture.

I loved this picture so much that I decided to use it in full on my card. It's a very simple card using just the picture, a few swirls, Madison in Venice (from the Holly & Madison's World Tour collection), a bit of multi-coloured ribbon and some pearls and rhinestones, with a doodled border.

I used Copics to colour in Madison. Picking a colour from the dreamy inspiration picture I coloured in the edge of my card and drew shadows around the swirls. The lettering on the inspiration photo was added on the computer.

Pop over the Dottie's World and see the wonderful ways the DT used the inspiration, it's amazing how we all differ.

Thanks for looking. Have a lovely Sunday ♥

What an elegant card Karen! I love how you used the actual photo as the background and picked up the colours in Madison's image. Beautiful! Thank you for your warm welcome to this month's DT.
