TCP TUESDAY #36 - INSPIRATION

This week's TCP Tuesday challenge is to use this photo as your inspiration. So it's open to all kinds of interpretation...color, composition, content...we'd love to see what you come up with too!

Jen del Muro is this week's Hipster Hostess with the Mostess. Click HERE to head over to her blog and leave the link for your card. Don't forget that new Cat's Cash and the Swanky Stamper title is up for grabs. Entries are due by the end of the day on Saturday, December 6th. Please use keyword TCPTUES36 if you're uploading to Splitcoast. Grab your Cat's Pajamas stamps and get goin'!

I was more inpired by the snowflakes in the photo and the "kraft" color. I decided to combine this challenge with one of the new techniques in the latest Technique Junkie newsletter - Faux Designer Paper. I love the layered look of the ink and stamps.

Supplies: Stamps - Elegant Christmas from The Cat's Pajamas; Paper - SU! Kraft, White, Burgundy; Ink - SUINK Burgundy, Colorbox Dark Brown Chalk, Versamark, Ranger Distress ink in Walnut Stain and Tea Dye, VersaMagic chalk inks in Malted Mauve, Perfect Plumeria, Gingerbread, and Jumbo Java; Other - Ranger sponge tool, Clear EP, Martha Stewart Seam Binding ribbon, SU! Irridescent Ice EP, buttons by Westrim, brads by American Crafts, Scor-Pal
