Our inspiration piece for this round of the challenge was the room from
Pottery Barn. I love this room. It reminds me of my family room, or more accurately, it reminds me of what my family room could look like if I had any talent for decorating!
Anyway, I love red, and I especially like the way it pops against the neutrals in this room, so I kept the colors for my card. The rooster pillow on the sofa also caught my eye for a couple of reasons. First, I have roosters in my kitchen, which is next to the family room, so that pillow would be a perfect accent on my own sofa. Second, I actually had a rooster stamp that would work!
The stamps I used on my card are from
smARTworks. I stamped the rooster with Adirondack Pitch Black ink onto white cardstock and colored it with Copic markers. The white was really stark white, so I went over that part with a very pale warm grey, which toned it down just enough. That pretty paper is a digital download available from
The Angel Company. It's meant to be black and white, but I printed it on kraft cardstock instead. The flowers are Hero Arts, and the layout is from CPS142 over at
Card Positioning Systems.

This is fabulous, Donna! Love the rooster and until now, I didn't even see him, lol. I think I need a new monitor. Love the printed kraft bg and flower embellie.
ReplyDeleteI love your rooster, Donna! I searched high and low thinking I had a rooster stamp, but couldn't find one. Yours looks fabulous!
