4 Crafty Chicks # 78 Inspiration Picture

Happy Thursday crafty friends! Sadly today is my last day as guest designer for 4 Crafty Chicks. Fortunately I will be back in April! This week we had a beautiful picture to draw inspiration from:

I had a great time with this challenge, inspiration photos are always fun. I wanted to do a layout, here it is:

I immediately thought of the Sophisticated cart for this project. It has very elegant images. Every cut on this layout is from Sophisticated, including the title.

I considered adding some gems to the chandelier, but ultimately decided to go with some liquid pearls to jazz it up. I think both are equally elegant.

I did add some gems to the flower centers, though! I used the chandelier and chair cuts since the inspiration picture was in an elegant room. I didn't think I would ever use this cut, so I love when inspiration just strikes and you find a way to stretch and utilize the tools you have in new and unique ways.

So there's my project! I want to thank the 4 Crafty Chicks: Lori, Leanne, Tamie and Melissa for having me. It's been great creating with these talented ladies!  I really hope you will head over to 4 Crafty Chicks and show us your take on that inspirational photo. Until April! :)
