just inspirational challenge

Heyyyyyy 4th July,

Wish I was in America celebrating!!!! So this week we are being sponsored by Beccy's place. We also have a picture for inspiration to use and it has fireworks for the celebration of this day.

I had a lovely image from Beccy of a shoe!, well girls who don't like shoes?????

I decided to make my card using water colour pencils which I then edged with a navy promarker. The rose and leaves I used promarker too as I like to mix different mediums. I glittered the areas where I thought I should put some shading onto the shoe. The rose was then glazed and left over night to dry, as I know I would make a mess because I would be too tempted to touch!

This morning I decorated the shoe with pearls and then started on my background. I wanted a look to imitate the American flag. I know it's not correct but it does have stars and stripes!!!

I roughly cut some strips of red card and I punched out some stars, which I then filled in with white stars.

This was all placed onto navy card and then light blue card.

I finished the card with some ribbon on the edge and I drew some running stitches and some crosses.

So please pop over to our blog and enter our challenge as Beccy is giving away some digi stamps.

Thank you for reading my blog and I hope you enter are challenge.
