Tejal’s inspiration is from this card by Michele’ chelemom
And here are TWO – yes u heard that right – TWO fantastic takes on this inspiration
This AWESOME image is from Karen’s Doodles the Penguin Cupcake. Isn’t this image gorgeous!! Too bad the other DT members couldn’t use a Karen’s Doodles image due to lack of time :(
“ Tejal here...I'm a physiotherapist turned card-maker. I've been crafting since as long as I can remember. My first step into this world of card making/rubber stamping
came when I first stepped into hobby ideas and picked up my first rubber stamp set. Not knowing how to use it, I turned to the internet. And what a world it has opened up for me. I still remember the first blog that swept me off my feet was Maria Bell's. Since that day I've been hooked. And every day, I learn something new.
It has been 3 years that I've been making cards and it was in March this year that I met Smita thorough Dina's blog. What a world..It took me leaps across the sea to find my own neighbor!! And through her blog, I've found so many wonderful girls (I will still call you girls even when you're all 60) that share this passion (what others call madness). Thank you all for all the kind words and support along the way.
I love the clean and uncluttered look of making cards and that's what you will find in most of my cards. . And that's why I love the images from Karen's Doodles, they're clean and super easy to color in. Many thanks to them for giving me a chance to work with their lovely images.
Thanks to Jaya for starting something so wonderful, something just for us. And it is an honor to be DT for this wonderful Challenge.
Good luck to you all! Have fun”
Ash’s Inspiration is a poster of the movie Alice in Wonderland. Loved that movie!
And here is the gorgeous take on Ash’s choice of inspiration
“I am a MA in Mass comm. I used to work for a TV production house. I married my best friend and now I am taking a break from my profession. Crafting has always been my hobby but as a student I never found time to develop my passion for it. Now I have adequate time to dedicate to crafting and doing lots of other things i love like gardening, bonsai, terrarium DIY home decor projects . I started crafting 3 years ago when i got married and started on a scrapbook of my hubby and me and now am a avid crafter and love to live my theme “LIVING THE HANDMADE LIFE”
I have been blogging for just 3 months and the response i have received is just overwhelming. I am so happy to meet all my Indian fellow scrappers. I hope to make a lot of friends and also wish that i can learn new things and also teach whatever little i know.
I really thank Jaya for giving me this opportunity to be a guest DT this month and i hope you like my card. Its as usual its different and vintagyy which is my style. My inspiration is this poster of the movie Alice in Wonderland”
Sudha’s inspiration is Nature and below is her cute flower-power take on that. You can base your inspiration on Sudha’s card
“Hi all, I am Sudha, - Artist, Art and Craft teacher, love to do painting, drawing, sketching, pottery, card making everything artistic and creative. I am damn crazy about exploring and learning new techniques related to Art specially card making.
I congrats Jaya to start this “Challenge Blog” first ever in India and thank her for giving me opportunity to show my work as a DT member. Its such a big opportunity for me. I am so glad and enjoy as a DT member this month.
This month theme is – “ An Inspiration”. My biggest inspiration is Nature. I used to capture nature in my works. So I made a card along with its envelop, inspired by my biggest inspiration – Nature and reminds everyone about the beauty and the power of nature.”
Phew! Such GORGEOUS inspiration. Please leave some love to these wonderful DT I’ve been SOO lucky to work with.
And now – jump in! Choose your inspiration – any of our DT’s inspirations – and base your entry on that! Have fun girls :))
