I haven't had a whole lot of time for extra challenges lately but I'm excited to be back to playing with Marina at her Library Craft Challenge blog. She has selected a trio of paperback books to serve as our inspiration.
I've never read Girl, Woman, Other however I really liked Eleanor Oliphant and absolutely LOVED Where the Crawdads Sing. It's currently my all time favorite book and I cannot recommend it enough. It will come as no surprise that I chose it's cover as my card inspiration.
Supplies:
Taylored Expressions - Build a Background Waves stamp set
Your Next Stamp - Tall Grass stamp set
Altenew - Fresh Freesia stamp set (sentiment)
If you're a reader, do check out both Marina's card challenge as well as her book selections this week. I'm so happy I had the nudge to create a card based on my favorite read. (I've both read and listened to Crawdads and both versions are fabulous.)
Stay safe and healthy my friends!

I love your blending here, Julie! Really very beautiful, and yes, quite wonderful for a sympathy card.
ReplyDeleteI have put that book on my list! I thought sure I'd read it, but it's no longer on my Kindle - so maybe not?

This is absolutely gorgeous! And very reminiscent of the book cover. Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteThose waves look dimensional - very cleverly done and the whole card is absolutely stunning. Thanks for joining The Library and so glad you could find the time - I thought of you went I chose Crawdads.
