After spending this past week with Hero Arts "Kickstart" classes, I was challenged to look for new avenues of inspiration. Since I often CASE cards I find online, this gave me the opportunity to start coming up with my own ideas instead of borrowing from other sources.
Today when I walked into my "tower" the first thing I thought of was this die I hadn't tried using yet. Instead of coloring in the trees, I cut a strip of green dsp along with the white and glued the green trees over the white ones. I then added a chimney and red door on one of the houses by attaching a tiny piece of red underneath so that a corner of it would stick up beyond the roof. I added the smoke with a black marker. It didn't take long, either.
If you haven't signed up for one of the online classes at Hero Arts, it's not to late to try one. I can tell you it definitely is worth the cost!
