Blue Skies Ahead

BB1 This week's SCS Inspiration Challenge comes from the Etsy Store Birdhouse Blessings.  

Steve & Kate (S&K Creations) have been building birdhouses together for 20 years.  They try very hard to make sure that each birdhouse has it's own personality with a whimsical, yet usable design.  My card is inspired by the Flowery Tear Drop Trailer.

I began with a scrap of Basic Grey turquoise DP and added several layers of Washi Paper tape to the bottom for my landscape.  Next I stamped the Tear Drop Trailer from Inkadinkado's Road Trip set in the base.  I stamped the trailer three times more on white cardstock, as well as blue & yellow DP scraps and paper pieced my trailer together.

To bring in more of the yellow and orange from the birdhouse design, I added some yellow plaid clouds using my Die-Namics Cloud die cut and a paper pieced orange kite from the a muse vintage clear set.

I finished with a few touches of Silver Sharpie for the metal elements on the trailer, some red glitter pen for the tail light and kite tail, and a sentiment from the
Inkadinkado set.

I hope you find inspiration.
