impressionistic

In my previous post I mentioned some backgrounds that my husband has created using his camera and photoshop. This card incorporates another of his pieces. We were at Butchart Gardens in Victoria to view the amazing tulip beds and we both loved this particular bed for the colour combinations. He did the photo and then used Photoshop to make it look like an impression era painting. It is so soft and pretty. I added a black border to the floral strip to make it pop a bit more before adding it to the card front. I had a few previously inked Memory Box flowers left so I added them along with a cut apart sentiment strip from Paper Rose. I added some pops of color dots to the flower centers and to the sentiment for added interest.

The challenge at Just Add Ink #701…Inspiration! has some pretty florals in the photo and I thought this card fit so I’m entering it there.

Thanks for stopping by, I appreciate it. I’m off to the garden in a minute as the day is glorious and it’s warm outside.
