Pinterest Inspired Challenge Inspiration

Hey There! 

It's Lizzy with the Facebook Inspiration Team.  I'm here today to share my card for the current Lawnscaping Challenge: Pinterest Inspired.  This is such a fun challenge and an awesome way to jump start your creativity when you're feeling in a bit of a rut.  I personally could spend hours just scrolling through all that eye-candy!  

Here's the beautiful pin that I was inspired by:

I just love the look of the garland, but I was a little dismayed when going through my Lawn Fawn stamps that I didn't have a foliage-type stamp to reproduce this....that is, until I saw the Mother's Day stamp set!

Here's how I used the stem stamp to create the garland: 

Trace a circle to use as a template and align the stamp with the line.

Start building the garland. 

Build in the opposite direction too.
When it came time to make the card, I thought stamping on a piece of patterned paper would add a little more pizzaz to the card, so here's what I came up with: 


I also looked through my stash to find a large, script sentiment and I thought the "You are my Sunshine" stamp from Sunny Skies was perfect.   The paper is part of the Yes Please Amy Tangerine 6x6 paper pad.  A few rhinestones finished off this simple card! 


I hope you feel inspired to play along with us this week!  We can't wait to see what you create!
