It's a very special day as the Inspired By Challenge launches it's 200th challenge! We have lined up a challenge that is inspired by YOU and offers special prizes too! We have posted the winners of all the challenges this year, and been asked to choose one card by YOU to be inspired by.
I chose this beauty that Loll Thompson created for our October challenge. I absolutely love her bold use of colors and clean crisp details. Isn't that buffalo plaid gorgeous? I love how she added sweet pearls and the die cut wreath has such dimension!
My card is a CASE of Loll's layout and I used the trees from The Greetery Fir & Foliage 2. Using Distress Oxide inks I stamped each tree in three layers and die cut them. In keeping with the bold colors I chose red for the sentiment and added a strip along the panel. The black stars added balance and a crisp accent.
Be yourself

Cindy, I love your gorgeous rendition of Loll's beautiful card! I recently added to my sorely lacking supply of Christmas trees - wish I'd seen this one first! SO pretty!

I love your spin on Loll's card, Cindy! Your pine trees are just lovely and the pops of red add a wonderful festive touch!
I love anything with PLAID, so this is right up my alley! Bright and cheerful and a great take on Loll's card! The red sentiment with the pretty green trees are all BEAUTIFUL!
Love your take on Loll's card, both are very pretty. I like how you added the pops of red with the sentiment and the strip of red with the b/w check.
Also, a big thanks for your visit to my blog and your sweet comment.
