JAI 752 inspiration challenge - Notes & Totes birthday flowers


Hello & welcome to this week's Just Add Ink Challenges Design Team share. This week is a photo inspiration challenge. I was a bit puzzled at first what to do, but then had an idea to replicate the car full of flowers as a fun tote using the new Notes and Totes stamp and die bundle. Here's how my card turned out.


I hope you can see how I was inspired by the image. I started by making up the fun 3d tote using the dies in the set and Pool Party cardstock to reflect the car shape, details and colour. It actually is a 3d bag, but flattened it on the card. I love all the stitched effects and different accessory options. Definitely a good one for lots of people and occasions.

A bouquet of flowers (using the Country Flowers dies - now on the Last Chance list) is another nod back to the car. I then went wild adding the essential water bottle and fun sunglasses.

The strip below the bag acts like a beach towel to ground the bag, and the background paper acts like a dreamy sunset (because sunrises are clearly too early). Take a closer look at all the little details.

 
Inside there's another die cut and sentiment stamps from Round We Go stamp set. It really is a brilliant one for birthdays. Some more flowers and paper carries the theme over.
 

Details
  • Tote, water bottle, sunglasses, timber strips - Notes and Totes stamps and dies bundle, Pool Party cardstock and silver foil, and
  • Flowers - Country Flowers die set (Last Chance) and 24-26 In Colour gems, and leaves coloured with Stampin' Blends (Shaded Spruce, Summer Splash)
  • Sentiments (front and inside) - Wanted to Say die set and Round We Go stamp set
  • Background, towel and scarf - Full of Life patterned paper, and 

So what do you think? Can you see the challenge inspiration photo in my card? I hope you liked the idea and that it gives you some ideas to try on your own project. Head to the Just Add Ink blog to see lots more inspiration for the challenge and to add your own project.
