Fusion #13

(Please scroll down for my CFC post earlier today)


For anyone who's been holding out on the Fusion Challenge, now is the perfect time to play! You've got a whole month (yep, a MONTH) to come up with your take on the sketch, the photo, and/or a fusion of both. This challenge stays open until July 23rd. 


For my take on the sketch, I replicated the objects at the top of the panel, the banner on each side of the panel, and the sentiment on the panel. The sentiment needed a little more pizazz after I stamped it in orange, so I highlighted the secondary sentiment with a yellow marker. If you look closely at the embossed strip, you may notice that it's actually two designs. I did the stripes first, didn't like it because it was too similar to the candles, and then embossed the sunshine impressions over it. Definitely not intended, but I like the look.

Thanks for looking!
