Photo Inspiration at Crafts and Me

Morning Peeps,

Half way through the week, yayyyyyy, mojo is slowing returning, but have planned to have a sort out in my craft room for the rest of the week, so a little rest from card making whilst I have a clean up and sort out, so let's hope I can find things when I do hit the crafting mat again!  I've just finished making my copic marker storage using foamboard, and I have layered some chipboard with magnetic backing so all my nesties are stuck to it, just need hubby to put it on the wall, ummmmm could be a long wait.  On with the rest of it, but it's going to be a long process.........

Oh and by the way we are now a WEEKLY challenge blog. With the recent additions to the team, Teresa has formed a digi team and a rubber team so we will be taking it in turns to run the challenges, so one week it will be the digi team and the next the rubber team, and with twice as many challenges there will be twice as many fabulous prizes.  And speaking of prizes this week's sponsor is Sweetpea Stamps who are offering $20 and, I know there's more, as Crafts and Me Challenge Blog is 1 year old, Teresa is doing an additional draw for 8 Crafts and Me digi images and if you haven't seen the range, boy are you missing something.  In addition to the challenge blog as always the team will be posting every day on the Crafts and Me Blog HERE for daily inspiration so don't forget to hop over and follow so you don't miss anything. 


This week's theme at Crafts and Me is photo inspiration chosen by Vicky along with some texture.  I have chosen the blues and for texture I have added corrugated card, ripped it and added some acrylic paint.  We are being sponsored by SweetPea Stamps, so come on over and join the fun.  Here's the photo inspiration:-

Well actually there's two photo's, you can take your pick or use a combination. 

Here's what I came up with:-

This is Flapper 2 by Lemon Shortbread available from Crafts and Me HERE

I have coloured her using Copics and Prisma's.

A bit more texture, corrugated heart with a dusting of acrylic paint, and a distressed butterfly with pearls.
