Happy Saturday! I'm up this morning blog surfing, doing a little work, exercising and then running Collin to a birthday party, but before I get to all that, let's chat about a new challenge blog: Muse. The idea of the challenge is as follows:
- Use what you have in your stash, don't purchase anything new for your Muse cards.
- Explain your interpretation of the Muse inspiration card in your post and link back to Muse.
- Provide supportive comments to at least 3 of your fellow member’s submissions.
- Vote for one of your fellow member's submissions that you find inspiring.
So here we go! Amy's gorgeous card is below! Mine is the red one up above. I was inspired as follows...love how she embossed the outline flowers in white and then used distress inks to ink them up. I also took inspiration from the sentiment being offset and embossed around the sentiment. Finally, I started with the exact same design in terms of a little patterned paper on the edges, but you can see I changed it up and showed almost all the pattern paper.
So there you have it? Have you played along already? I think this is a great idea for a new challenge blog!

Love the flowers - great colour and shape! And of course that sentiment is a good reminder to all, but especially to this impatient control-freak mother! lol!
Excellent Lynn....love how the blooms mimic your background panel!
What a cool flower stamp you have! The card is really beautiful, no wonder you decided to show the whole paper, it's gorgeous! :)

Lynn this is so pretty! I love your flowers! The red really pops from the patterned paper! And that sentiment is gorgeous!
so so serene and beautiful! I love that prayer and have it on my bulletin board by my desk at work :) LOVE reading about how you took the inspiration. It's the process! Have a wonderful day...I've got an afternoon session with my trainer (ouch!), some errands and then maybe some fun inky time in there somewhere for good measure :) ox
Love that sentiment and you have framed it wonderfully with the flowers and the stitching. Have a fabulous weekend :)
