We're celebrating the 2nd Anniversary of the Fusion Card Challenge ... and to celebrate, each designer has invited a guest to join them for this week's post.
Here's the awesome Fusion Inspiration.
I loved the colors, chevrons & flowers, so those are the elements I incorporated into my design.
I combined die cut flowers & leaves from Essentials by Ellen Bold Blossom Stand-Alone together with some paper flowers from my stash. I die cut the flowers from yellow patterned paper and then sponged ink to make them darker. I traced the negative of the flower onto the same patterned paper to create the backs of my blooms. The sentiment is Essentials by Ellen Fancy Thanks.
And my guest star ... drum roll please ... is the oh so talented, and oh so amusing Lydia Fiedler from Understand Blue. I wish I lived closer so I could sit-in on one of my Saturday card classes, but instead I get to enjoy her educational videos and creations from a far. Please click-on-through and check out her gorgeous Fusion Creation.
Love your colorful chevrons and pretty layered blooms Steph! Julia xx
