sending hugs

 hello stampers!

I'm joining in today with the talented team at inkspirational where they have a mood board challenge. I love a mood board as it gives you so many directions to go, and this board is beautiful! I was inspired by the wooden planks, the butterfly, sunflowers and the colours.

I used some design paper for the background which had a wooden plank print then ink blended over the top, using a damp cloth to wipe some ink in places and make it look a bit grungy. The edges were blended with black. The die cut elements  were die cut, then watercoloured using the inspiration colours, with some popped up on foam tape for dimension. 

Thanks so much for stopping by!
