Hi everyone! I'm back today as a guest designer for Inkspirations by Makeesha Byl. This week is Inspiration Challenge #17; a very lovely table setting.
I was inspired mainly by the branches and the lovely vanilla, white, and kraft colors. The wine glasses in the photo inspired me to use rhinestones as flower centers. I used my Big Shot to cut "branches". Even though the inspiration photo doesn't have dots, I was drawn to this paper again. I cut the paper in a shape that reflects the table shape.
Here are the other design team members:
I made this card for my Aunt Christine. I've mentioned her before. She was in the hospital last week because of pneumonia. She's been fighting a rare form of breast cancer (Inflammatory Breast Cancer) for a few years. During a PET Scan, they discovered that she had fractured a few ribs from the violent coughing. She'll also have to start some stronger chemo very soon. Inflammatory Breast Cancer is a strong enemy, my dears!

Que linda Tarjeta, me gusta mucho esa combinacion de colores, sencilla pero a la vez elegante.
Respecto al CHA, no fue mi dia, mi hija pequeña se aburrio muy pronto y la verdad yo me esperaba otra cosa, tambien llegamos tarde no habia estacionamiento en fin, pero que padre que tu si pudiste disfrutarlo y convivir con todas las chicas!
Una pregunta esta bien que te escriba en español mis comentarios aqui en tu blog?
Very pretty! Great job with that inspiration!
Thank you for sharing you thought process for this card, I've looked at a number of other entries and couldn't quite work out how they got their inspiration from the picture, but you've given me a fresh way to look at it. And a beautiful example. Wishing your Aunty a speedy recovery.
Such a pretty card Anthonette - love all the pretty details. Great job with the challenge x
