And now some inspiration from our team ...
(in no particular order)
My gorgeous dog, Jess. I took inspiration from the mix of colours (even included a splash of purple!) and the black outlines.
I liked the orange tones and the stripes in the painting so I decided to add them to my layout too.
I loved the bright colours this month so chose Photo Play "Wiskers" paper range. I challenged myself further to use lots of "older" items from my stash such as flat flowers and brads. The chipboard circles represent string or wool which my cat loved to play with. This month marks a year since she went to kitty heaven.
Here is my page with a very cute puppy who is not so small now.
Astro - British Blue Shorthair (waiting for family on the other side of the rainbow bridge!) R.I.P beautiful Boy!
Kimba - Snow Bengal. Sleeping is his favourite sport!
The eyes of the cats really stood out to me in the inspiration painting so I've gone with that.
Jane Howden - (Australia)
Inspired by the bright happy colours and the cats (of course).
