Finding Inspiration in a Layout Challenge

The other night I was browsing for some inspiration, since I had worked all day and just REALLY wanted to sit down and craft ;) so I went to Moxie Fab!! I found this challenge, to find inspiration in a Layout to makea card! I remember reading this in the lastest issue of Papercrafts....so it was fun to get to play along !!! Here is the Layout I was challenged to find inspiration in:



And here is what I came up with:

Friends Forever

I used the pattern of the horizontal stripes of paper in the Layout, and chose a CTHM paper that had a similar pattern. I also placed the clouds in similar places to where the semi-circles are on the layout, and then added ribbon in the same way. I know the card doesn't look much like the layout, but it is my take on it!!! All supplies used are CTMH!
