Wallpaper Inspiration


Good Monday morning everyone!!! I hope you had a wonderful weekend!!!  Ours was a little stressful....my hubby spent many sleepless standing guard over the chicken coop because a critter killed nine chickens in the last few days. He shot a possum that actually chewed through the wire...I had no idea they could do that!! I guess that's because I'm a city girl married to a country boy...LOL!!! Anyway.... I'm off in a few minutes to work in the yard before the temp climbs to 100 degrees but first I want to share a card I made Saturday for the Inspiration Challenge on Splitcoast. 

I decided to take my inspiration from this awesome wallpaper called Plume from the NYC store of  Michele Varian. 
   
The Reverse Confetti feather from their Peacock Pretties set was embossed with white ep on black card stock. The round sentiment from the same set was stamped with black ink on white card stock and the Happy Birthday sentiment from their Celebrate Cake set was stamped with black on craft for the banner. The ball fringe and twine finish it off.

Thanks for stopping by....have a great day and I hope you stay cool!!!
