Hello, crafty friends. I’m so excited to tell you that I’m hosting Altenew’s Inspiration Challenge this month. I chose a photo of my craft supplies I took in my craft room as an inspiration photo. Don’t you just love all the colors and elements you see in the photo?
Besides my recent go-to technique, watercoloring, my favorite cardmaking technique is creating a stamped background by mixing small images from different stamp sets. And here is what I came up with:
I took three main colors – yellow, blue and red – and circle elements from the inspiration photo to create my card for today. I used Spicy Yogurt cardstock as a stamping panel to give an earthy texture to my background.
Here are the stamp sets from Altenew I used for my card : Floral Sprig, Vintage Flowers, Floral Shadow, Precious Moments, Sentiments & Quotes, and Thinking of You.
I made another card with the same design but using different color scheme on a white cardstock. With various colors and images, the possibilities are endless.
I made a video tutorial to show you how to create a stamped background. I’m also sharing something special/different at the end of the video you won’t want to miss out. 
You can watch it here or on YouTube channel.
I hope you can play along with the Altenew September Inspiration Challenge. Thre are FOUR $30 gift certificates up for grabs. I can not wait to see where the inspiration photo takes you! That’s all I have for today! Thanks so much for stopping by. Happy crafting!

You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to
be actually something which I think I would never understand.
It seems too complex and very broad for me. I am looking forward for your
next post, I will try to get the hang of it!

I’ve been browsing online greater than three hours these days, yet I by no means
found any interesting article like yours. It is pretty value sufficient for
me. In my opinion, if all site owners and bloggers made excellent content as you did, the web will
likely be a lot more helpful than ever before.

With havin so much content and articles do you ever run into any issues of plagorism
or copyright violation? My website has a lot of exclusive content I’ve
either created myself or outsourced but it appears a lot of it is popping it
up all over the internet without my agreement. Do you know any techniques to help
stop content from being ripped off? I’d truly appreciate it.
