Franziska *Day 4*

Here is our inspiration card by Franziska for today:

Isn't this a fab color scheme? I love the distressed look of the stamping. The geometric patterns are a great contrast to the natural flowers and leaves. Finally, the subtle text in the background really takes this card to the next level!
Here is my take:See you tomorrow!!

Franziska *Day 3*

Today's card by Franziska is another example of her beautiful collage stamping: Franziska always does such a lovely job of combining background colors and images. Her collages are easy on the eyes and always so natural! I love the way she has divided this one into a grid- great design!
Here is my take:Thanks again for stopping by. Hugs!!

Franziska *Day 2*

Check out this unique card by Franziska: The simplicity of Franziska's design speaks volumes. I love the mini scene against the expanse of blue background paper. This card has that great, handmade, homespun quality. And the scene reminds me of driving across the South Dakota plains as a little girl when going to visit my grandparents.

Here is my take:

See you tomorrow, my friends! I hope you are having a FAB week so far!

Inspired by...Franziska

Hi everyone and welcome to another week of "Inspired by..." creations. Our featured artist this week is Franziska (Franziska2010 on flickr). I love Franziska's earthy style and beautiful collage stamping. This is the first card of Franziska's that I saw and I guess you can say the rest is history. :)

The colors and layers on this card are outstanding! I love the rich, golden yellow with the unexpected purple leaf. Wouldn't this make the perfect fall/Thanksgiving card? This card, especially the stamped center panel, is like a mini painting ready to be framed!
Here is my take:Thanks soooo much for stopping by. I can't tell you how much your kindness and encouragement mean to me! HUGS, HUGS, HUGS! :)
