SSD Color Inspiration


This week's Skipping Stones Design challenge is a color challenge inspired by this beautiful photo.  Hopefully you recognize it in the card that I came up with, although mine definitely has the addition of some cheerful greens that were not part of the inspiration palette.  The map also inspired the Uplifting travel/transportation theme...if you let your imagination wander, the swirling jewels and intricate lines of the doily on the printed paper sort of mimic the lines of the map itself.

Visit Skipping Stones Design to see what the rest of our team and other guest designer, Laurel, are doing with today's color inspiration!

Notes:
SSD Uplifting
Simple Stories Fabulous designer paper
Copic blending paper
