Picture Inspiration

We have a new challenge at The Paper Shelter and this week we want you to use this picture as your inspiration:




I have chosen to use some of the colours for my inspiration, here is my card:


I have used the lovely Is's Tea Time! image which is available here to purchase.  I coloured her with my Copics. Dies used were Memory Box Fremont Crest, Papercrafts Pocket Watch, Spellbinders Labels 1 and Grand Decorative Labels One.  The papers are Prima Welcome to Paris and the flower was made using Heartfelt Creations Posy Patch and Stamp-n Stuff Sea Mist Pearls Embossing Powder.



I used Clearly Besotted sentiment for the inside embossing it with the Sea Mist Pearls EP:


As usual there is a wonderful prize on offer for the lucky winner:



Please have a look at the rest of the DT projects for some lovely inspiration over at The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog, you have a week for this challenge.

Thank you for visiting today and the lovely comments which I really appreciate.
