Welcome to our Create with Stamping Friends Inspiration Monday challenges. This week’s inspiration challenge is a pretty, lacy window panel!

FLOWERS OF BEAUTY
I kind of struggled with this inspiration piece. I did know I wanted to use the Eyelet Embossing Folder, though! And white on white seemed appropriate! It’s funny…Azure Afternoon was one of the colors that initially I thought I’d use a LOT, but I’ve found that I’ve probably only used it a handful of time since they introduced the new colors last year!

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Thick Basic White cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- Next, I embossed a 3-3/4 x 5 piece of Basic White cardstock with the Eyelet Embossing Folder and added it on top.
- Then I added a 1 x 3-1/2 strip of Lighter Than Air DSP (Online Exclusive) towards the bottom with the ends cut at an angle.
- I stamped the stem and outline stems from Flowers of Beauty on Basic White cardstock with Shaded Spruce Ink and cut with the Flowers of Beauty Dies.
- And I stamped the flowers on Basic White cardstock with stamped off Azure Afternoon Ink and the centers full strength. They were cut with the Flowers of Beauty Dies and adhered to the stems. I popped them up with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The greeting from Unbounded Love Stamp Set was stamped with Azure Afternoon Ink on 1/2 x 2-1/2 strip of Balmy Blue cardstock and popped up on the DSP.
- Finally, I added a trio of blue In Color Opaque Sparkle Dots to the background.

I think I captured the inspiration photo pretty well! OK, check out Debbie’s Inspiration Monday card over on Create with Stamping Friends!
