Smitten

My blogging friend Wanda started on a new design team "For Your Inspiration" and WOW... the the first inspiration pic is awesome!!! It is a twice weekly challenge and this is the first one. Now, when you see the pic, it could seem a little intimidating, hard to believe someone imagined and executed a building like this!!

Here's the inspiration....



Can you believe this exists... it is the Dubai Towers... haven't checked this out on the web to learn more but, need to, the pic is amazing!! I focused on the tall towers-- "tall flowers" came to mind and used a SU set that has been getting a little dusty but, I think fits perfectly. Inspired by Nature.. blades of grass and those gorgeous flowers.... so bold like this pic. Added some glitter to the centers for the light relfecting off the towers.

My card...



Stamped the leaves in basic gray and then, colored the flower stamp image with markers in regal rose and basic gray, leaves in going gray- stamped onto Basic Gray Basics White paper. Stamped two of the flowers again and cut out and popped on top. Added some glitter on the flower centers with ribbon and lace and an antique SU brad on the bottom. The sentiment "Live With Passion" is one of my favs and seemed like it fit the pic.... any architect that dreams of and executes buildings like that has passion { and maybe some Dubai dollars to spend}!!!

TFL!!
