PTI June Blog Hop Challenge

The Blog Hop Challenge at Papertrey Ink for this month is an inspiration photo entitled "Reef" by Yellena James. It really makes me wonder how Nichole finds all of these unique and beautiful works of art online and then encourages us to be inspired. After all, this is a challenge for card makers.

A little bit of watercoloring and white heat embossing got me jumpstarted. Then I got carried away with the beautiful colors and fun stamps of Color Pops Floral. It ended with this anniversary card.
