Hello Friends,
Here with a card to celebrate Kara's 100 Weeks of Inspiration Challenge. I love Kara's inspirational posts and her Pinterest file is one that I love browsing over and over again. I was touched when I spied one of my cards added not too long ago! Thanks Kara! Your cards ALWAYS inspire me and I love your style!
Tonight I went to Kara's Friday Inspiration File and picked this card by Christina Kowalczyk from her blog called My Paper Secret. I loved this card the first time I saw it and I still do!!! I decided to put a Valentine's Day spin on it as I have lots of cards to make for family and friends. Here is what I came up with:
(This is the updated photo...please disregard next paragraph - :)
The deadline on Kara's blog is in 8 hours so I took the photo tonight and of course it is shadowy! I can hopefully retake it tomorrow morning with daylight but until then this will have to do. I have a major lighting problem tonight as I am in the middle of a purge and re-org in my craft room and my normal lighting area is in the process of being moved nearer to windows for additional natural light.
I am also entering this in the Cheery Lynn Designs Challenge for this week #64 - Sweethearts.
Thanks for looking at my card. I hope to add an updated photo tomorrow with better lighting.
:) Jill

I love how you translated Cristina's ghost into this beautiful, sweet heart!! The tone on tone texture inside the cutout window is so pretty!! So glad you were able to join in the challenge!
ReplyDeleteOoh, I love your take on the inspiration card, Jill! Lovely!
ReplyDeleteGreat card, thanks for joining this week's challenge at Cheery Lynn Designs and good luck!
ReplyDeleteThis card is just wonderful. I love the window, and the single strand of twine. Thanks so much for leaving me such an abundance of love on my blog.
ReplyDeleteOh, fabulous CAS design, Jill! There is something so special about all the white with just a bit of red. I love the single heart cutout and the pretty heart inside!
