Retro Inspiration!!

Hello there.... are you a Pinterest Fan and do you love Lawn Fawn??? If the answer to both of these is yes then I have just the challenge for you :0)

It's my second and last time joining the girls at Lawnscaping this month and todays new challenge is great fun..... to be inspired by something you've found on Pinterest....
I have just a few boards on Pinterest with good intentions of using them to inspire me, I just never get round to doing just that, so this challenge was the kick up the bum I needed!! I love this retro Christmas print I pinned on my Inspiration board and thought the Lawn Fawn baubles in Ornate Ornaments lended themselves perfectly for a time-travelling design :0)
                                                        awesome retro design by penny choo

I love the "out of line" printing and angular colour blocking which was quite easy to reproduce with some masking and distress inks. Add a bit of bling with some silver thread, glittery dots and embossed sentiment across the polaroid style frame and I think the retro feel is definitely there.... love the colours too :0)

I can't wait to see what the DT girls have come up with, don't forget to hop over to the Lawnscaping blog and check them out for yourself, this weeks sponsor is the one and only.... Lawn Fawn.
I want to say thanks again to Laurel and the crew for letting me join them this month, it's been great fun and a real honour :0)

Thanks for stopping by
