Tuesday's Take 3

Cath Edvalson has started a blog and she's loaded it with inspiration, just like back in the day with her Moxie Fab column!  She has a challenge that she's calling Tuesday's Take, and it was just what I needed to get back into the groove after a 2 1/2 week vacation!

As soon as I saw her inspiration photo, I couldn't wait to play, especially since I just got this new card-sized die, which matches the design she gave us!  Here's my entry:


supplies: white cardstock, and Hero Arts shallows layering paper, Lil Inker Circles and Diamond Stitched Pattern die and coordinating Darling Diamonds stamp set, Simon's Smile Circle die, Spellbinder's circles dies

I thought the circle smile die would work nicely as a sentiment with the design, as it adds another circle to the design, yet it allows the background stamping to be seen.  

Here's Cath's inspiration piece:

Astral Slingshot Wall Clock | Heather Dutton via Society 6

ETA: I just realized that this is perfect for Virginia's current challenge: Geometric Patterns!  So I'm adding it to that challenge, also.

    Lin, I didn't know that Cath was back - I was ready to throw in the towel with crafting, and that just inspired me to hang on and have hope! Your take on the inspiration is absolutely amazing!
