I am pleased as punch to announce that this week's "Inspired by..." artist is none other than the AMAZING Nichol Magouirk. It is such an honor to be sharing her work on my blog as she is truly one of those top-notch stampers whose work is always spectacular. Nichol's BLOG is a treat as well-- always full of videos, Copic tutorials, links, and of course her cards and scrapbook pages. Well, are you ready for our first inspiration card by Nichol? Here you go. :) Too cute; right? To begin with, I love the design of this card- the green and yellow panels in the background, a central panel, and the fun colorful banner at the bottom. Nichol's coloring is out of this world. She is such a pro at shading and blending. I also love the way she has masked the image of the little boy so she could add those soft subtle clouds behind him. Finally, the twine and buttons are the perfect finishing touch!
Here is my take:Thanks soooo much for stopping by! :) See you tomorrow with another FAB card (hhmmm...or maybe a scrapbook page....) by Nichol!
