Time for another challenge over at
Photo Inspiration
Morning folks, hope you are having a good day today :) It is week two of the IKEsWORLD challenge, Photo Inspiration and still plenty of time for you to enter. Just remember, you must use and
IKEsART image to be eligible for the prize. Why not pop on over to the store, Ike produces the most amazing digs, everything from off the wall to cute and fluffy :) :) :)
Here is the inspiration photo we are using for the challenge (sorry I don't know the name of the artist, if you do please enlighten me) :)
To begin with I printed my work sheet with the digis I am using
Cracker Cat and
Bauble Cat, along with my basket outline, a bowl of what will hopefully be baubles to represent the bowl of fruit, part of my background paper and the photo for colour matching. I am terrible with a theme like this, I know a photo inspiration challenge means you can you the layout, the colour etc. but I just love the challenge of trying to copy the original image :)
Next I airbrushed the top part of my card to match the back wall on the photo.
The bowl of fruit (now baubles) was such fun using lots of Stickles hahaha
Next I used a snowflake stamp and clear embossing powder on the red background. I did not really want this to show more just to catch a glimpse of the texture when the light caught it.
Promarkers were used to colour the pussy cats using colours from the image.
What a silly basket thing, but I was trying to get the effect of the basket in the image, one of those soft sisel types. For this I used brown crepe paper ruffled up.
The carpet was a dilemma, I had thought of material and also embossing some paper but when I saw in front of me a roll of embossed kitchen towel I thought I would give that a go instead. I airbrushed it with Promarkers and later drew a sort of squared pattern on it with my black Promarker.
These are the Promarkes I have used in this creation.
So here we have the finished composition. I did change the green part, from the dark green I had printed to this embossed paper. The card needed more texture and lightening and I think this works better.
I do hope the original artist of the painting won't be offended by my interpretation hahahaha
