365 Cards Day 263 - Ad Inspired

Take inspiration from the ad to produce a card

Gorgeous ad and I felt I could find something straight away

 

All papers are scraps and mag freebies the stamped flower is Hero Arts and embossed with clear emb. powder over Adirondack Stonewashed Ink

I handstitched the piece of folded Kraft paper to look like a Roman blind

Rub-on letters are Doodlebug

365 Cards Day 216 - Ad Inspired
Always another toughy for me as when I look at an ad, I literally just see what is there. What I see does not evolve artistically. I do envy (naughty, I know) some people's ability to do that.
Soooooooo I have just taken the colours and the birds and played my hand.
The chick and sentiment stamps are Snag 'em Stamps by Imaginisce
Ink - Versafine
A small piece of Kay & co cream paper was used to stamp the birds on and I made the flowers stripey with my drawing pen to match one of the papers.
Flat backed pearls from my stash in turquoise added to the blooms to match the piece of DCWV off cut.
Offcuts of tan Bazzill and HOTP b & W dotty paper finish it off.
Large Woodware scallop punch used to punch around the sentiment.

365 Card Day 186 - Ad. Inspired

Another grey matter stirrer, and had to think long and hard over this.
I felt the shoes in the ad. were made from a lovely grey/black wool tweed material or something with that look about it.
The only paper I could find that came anywhere near was this piece I used which had a hammered texture and a sort of gunmetal sheen and when I ripped it it had a lovely black core, so that was my starting point.
The red rose stickers are by Anna Griffin and the shoe stamp by Hero Arts.
I wanted to use black lace, but noticed another girl had used that idea so chose to use instead the black daisy trimming.
The sentiment to finish it off is by Inkadinkadoo
Both stamps stamped with Versafine Onyx Black
