Saturday Card: where to get inspiration?

My card for today is inspired by a card I found on the 

Splitcoaststampers Gallery.

Here you see the card that inspired me:

People very often ask me where do you get all your ideas?

Well browsing the internet is one of them

and I just love to go looking at the Splitcoast

Stampers Gallery. Thanks everyone for your artworks there.

The moment when i saw this card I knew what I was going

to do! Michael Strong's owl in the tree.

First i made a background for this card

with aquarel paper, the Michael Strong

coffee steam stamp and some distress markers.

I stamped with stazon azure blue on the aquarel paper.

I colored with the markers and a water pen to

give the background a look of the sky with clouds.

Here a picture of my finished background.

If you like you can use it for your card

by saving it wih the right mouse click to your computer.

A close up of the center part of the card.

The owl was stamped on shrink plastic

and colored also with distress markers. 

After the owl was shrunk a little glitter glue

was added on top.

The sentiment is a gift by my friend Joanne, who makes

these stamps herself. You might want to visit her

ebay shop HERE.

Here you can see all the different layers

on top of each other.

Thank you Melissa ( Monster) on SCS

for inspiring my card.

Have a creative day!
