Inspired By A Song --- Creata Challenge #34

Morning Folks, well that's another fortnight over and a new challenge begins over at Creata. Our theme is :- 'Inspired by a song'. The song I chose was an old Sinatra song but with a modern twist by one of my favourite singers Michael Buble......'Come Fly With Me' and here is what I created:-

My Sample 

Close Ups 



For my base I used Creata Kraft card, on top of this I placed Creata mirror card and Joycraft travel backing paper. I die cut the mountain range using Joycraft embossing die and mirror card, I gave it a distressed look by rubbing a nail file over it. I die cut the Joycraft suitcase using Kraft card and again I distressed this too. I added the aeroplane die cut using Joycraft die and Creat mirror card. For my finishing touches, I used crochet flower, resin flowers, pearl gems from my stash, flourishes were die cut from Joycraft die and Creata backing paper card! I hope that you like my creation....and that it has inspired you to have a go and join us on this fab challenge!
Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving such lovely comments

My Sample 
I coloured in image using Promarkers, Almond, Blush, Vanilla, Tan, Gold, Lemon, Rose Pink, Baby Pink, Pink Carnation, Cerise, Antique Pink, Moss Green, Bright Green, Leaf Green, Cool Aqua, China Blue and Orchid. I cut out image and placed on top of Creata patterned mirror card, die cut using Spellbinders decorative labels 8. For the base I have used a Creata white scalloped card blank, topped it with Creata mirror card and then I embossed Creata silky card with Cuttlebug Swirls folder and cut in to 4 equal squares and placed as shown.....I made up flowers using Creative Expression Delicate Daisies dies by Sue Wilson and felt that I had in my stash and finished with brads too. I added flourishes using Joycraft dies and glitter paper from my stash, finishing off with pearls and gems.
