Tuesday is also the day the new {PIN}spirational Challenge is released and this week Deanne has selected a great picture for inspiration:
Isn't this a great picture? Not only can you be inspired by the coffee, but by scrabble, the word "rain", the pretzel, look inside the cup - birds, and then there is always the brown color palette. So many directions to go!!!
We have 2 sponsors this week with great prizes:
(Prize: $15.00)
...and...
(Prize: 3 Digis)
Both companies have so many great images! I was able to chose an image from Fred She Said Designs. I took my inspiration from the inside of the cup and went for the word "bird". I found some great hummingbird images to use! While I love the traditional colors of a hummingbird, I wanted to go a little bit outside the box so I searched online about hummingbirds. The neat thing I learned is that there are so many different varities of those little creatures! I never realized how many different colors there were of hummingbirds! One that I found is here in Ohio and it's actually the only common breed here in Ohio. It's called the Ruby throated hummingbird. So since they are the only common Ohio breed, I had to an orange card:
So now it's your turn. How are you inspired by the picture? I can't wait to see your creation! Oh, and while you're at it - there is a Birthday Celebration going on at {PIN}spirational Challenges that you'll want to check out too. Have a blessed day!!!! And thanks for stopping by!!!
