Time Out #266 - Photo Challenge

Welcome to the challenge at Time Out.  This week it's a photo inspiration.

I'm glad it says 'inspiration' because I have nothing in the way of stamps that look like the photo.  I was inspired by the color of the sky and clouds.


My 'clouds' are actually dogwood from Honey Bee.  I got the soft background by using my long neglected Clarity brushes with Broken China Distress Ink.  Since I seem to have a heavy hand using regular blending brushes those have come in handy lately. The flowers are done in Altenew Pastel Sunrise and the embossed frame is SSS's Blossom Field.  

Lawn Fawn is the sponsor of this challenge and they will award the winner a $25 store credit.  We're being joined by Joyce Mehrberg as the winner of challenge #262.  Please check out what she and the rest of the Design Team have made for your inspiration.

I love your interpretation of the photo inspiration and your sweet dogwood blooms Bobby! Your colouring is subtle and beautiful and with the white embossed sentiment, just perfect for a sympathy card! Gorgeous dimension with the embossed background too! Hugs, Kate!
