JAI #213: AN INSPIRATION PIC

This week's challenge at Just Add Ink is to use a gorgeous inspiration pic, suggested by Nikki, to create a papercraft project.  It's a very pretty, chevron-y, challenge!




 
 
I took inspiration from the cushions, and used stamps with similar patterns to create gold-embossed designs on Whisper White card.   The light in my craft room is severely compromised (awaiting replacement of 3 out of 4 fluorescent tubes!), but I assure you the patterns on my squares are actually gold. :)
 
 
 
 
Stamps: Betsy's Blossoms, Polka Builder Wheel, Positively Chevron, Happy Congratulations, Memorable Moments
Card:  Brushed Gold, Whisper White, Pink Pirouette
Ink: Versamark inkpad, Pink Pirouette stampin' pad
Other: Chevron embossing folder, Gold Stampin' Emboss powder, 1 1/4" Circle punch, 1 3/8" Circle punch, 1 3/4" Scallop Circle punch, Squares Collection framelits, Pink Pirouette taffeta ribbon, glue dots, stampin' dimensionals
 
 
Make sure you check out the rest of the Design Team's stunning creations; love them!  We hope to see you playing along with us.
