{PIN}spirational Challenge # 60

Hello Friends! I am back with another {PIN}spirational Challenge!  In case you don't know what the {PIN}spirational Challenge is all about, well let me share with you.  Each week you are given a picture for inspiration.  All you have to do is create based on that picture.  So here is this weeks picture: Our Sponsors: When you see my card, you will likely think, what does this have to do with mermaids?  Well, it doesn't.  Instead I focused on the browns and golds for my card.  I embossed in gold, a clock background.  Then a brown tree.  I distressed the edges and added a ribbon and brad.  The base is kraft.   For the inside, I used more gold and distress inks. Supplies used: Tim Holtz:  Clear Embossing Ink, Distress Embossing Powder (Vintage Photo), Enchanted Gold Embossing Powder, Faded Jeans, Stormy Sky and Walnut Stain distress ink. Stamps:  Penny Black - Fantasy & Clock Face Background. I have to say, it is a bit of a sad day for me, as it will be my last post with {PIN}spirational Challenge.   I have made the decision to step down and reduced some stress in my life.  But I am sure I will be back to play along with the fabulous design team challenges in the future.  A special thanks to our great leader Deanne! Be sure to come over to {PIN}spirational Challenge and play along with us!   Thank you for stopping by.  Don't for get to scroll for the other two posts for today. Blessings until next time.... Athina
