Our Creative Corner Inspiration Challenge

Over on the Our Creative Corner blog they posted an inspiration challenge for this week.  We were to use this picture to create something. When I saw this picture I immediately thought of Christmas trees (don’t ask me where that came from).  So I went looking and found some small trees from an old Stampin’ Up set of 12 images.  I also had this patterned paper I had just used on another card but wanted to…

I was able to look at all the sketches by joining the Verve Group on Paper Craft Planet. I completed all my cards and I am now showing you sketch 3. This is a cute card and combines several papers. I used the corn stalks from the Happy Blessings stamp set. I only wanted…
