Etsy Inspiration #73




Good Saturday Morning Everyone!
Welcome to another wonderful Etsy Inspiration day!!!  Our featured store is called Elies Happy Hats and let me tell you.....you'll be totally inspired by all her beautiful crocheted creations & awed by the pictures of those adorable babies!!!  I wondered for a bit before settling on my inspiraton so make sure you do the same!  One lucky winner will receive an awesome prize pack from the shop: Baby Flapper Summer Hat, 1 White/Purple two layer Flower Hat and 1 Teddy Bear Hat.  Our sponsor for this week is Pixie Dust Studio & their offering up another fab prize.  Check out the EtsyInspired Challenge Blog for the details on the prize and for your opportunity to win all you need to do is visit the shop, pick your inspiration, make whatever creation your heart desires & link it to the challenge blog!

I really like the color combo on the picture that I chose so I decided to run with them.  It puts me in the mood for spring on this cold, wintry morning and my layout came from my need to use my new punch & ribbon.  I truly enjoyed making this week's card & I hope you enjoy it along with the rest of the Design Teams' work:

    I like the color combination of olive green and blue. As being synesthete I live a life in colors. Synesthesia means that I see colors when I see words and numbers.I transform this in paintings of names and birthdays.
