CUTplorations June

Howdy friends! It's time for a new challenge over at STAMPlorations CUTplorations! Here's the inspiration for the month of June.

I just love the summer feel of the graphic. I hope there is something in this photo that makes you want to join us - sunshine, clouds, blue sky, picnic, family, red/white checks, heck even cake...

I did not go literal this time, but rather pulled out a cover plate and some patterned paper from my stash. Yay for using up PP!

I was inspired by the sky and the picnic blanket. So I decided to add some red/white PP to the bottom area of the cover plate and to back the upper portion of the die cut with some cloud PP.

To bring in more of the primary color scheme I colored some portions of the butterfly with greens and blues and also that upper right corner with yellow to mimic the sun. Added a clear sticker sentiment on a strip of vellum and Voila!

I cannot wait to see what inspires you this month! 

Create a project based on the inspiration using at least one die cut and at least one STAMPlorations product. Your project might be chosen as the winner of a $15 GC to the shop. Check out how the CUTplorations DT was inspired by this month's photo here.
