SAF 2016: COLOR BLOCKING WITH LEXI DALY

Our current beverages inspired my card.  And of course, so did Andy :) We loved the video on him....I have always been a fan of his art, but it was interesting to hear the perspective of how his art was originally viewed!!

I LOVE this card :)

SAF 2016: MASTERPIECE INSPIRATIONS WITH THE TEAM

This was the easiest, quickest one of the day!  We got rid of the 2nd and 3rd graders - they are enjoying Ice Age 4 with Dad.  My au pair, Jannette, participated in this challenge with us.  She was a bit overwhelmed with all my weird tools :)

We all chose the same inspiration!!  Here are my cards....I was inspired to make 2 :)
