TGIF Challenge #539 - Inspiration






This week’s TGIF Challenge is one of inspiration … see the pretty pink skies??? What does it make you think of??

Honestly, I love me a good sunrise or sunset … up in the mountains, down on a beach, I’m IN!

Check out the blog challenge here - TGIF Challenge Blog if you’d like to play along.


I started this background off by masking it with a cutout I made using one of the Everyday Arches Dies. Starting at the bottom I sponged first some Melon Mambo, followed by Pretty in Pink and Bubble Bath (from bottom to top). 

The rest was super simple. I stamped some of the foliage images from Textured Notes and then borrowed a seagull from Sunrise Sailing to balance out the sky.

Lastly, I made a little sentiment tag using one of the sentiments from Textured Notes and a bit of White Embossing Powder. Added a few Low Profile Sparkle Dots and a scrap of ribbon and I was done!


What do you think? The lighting is making the Misty Moonlight lean a little more to black, but I like it anyway!
