Inspired By All The Little Things #86 - Featuring Erica A-b

     Hello, Veronica here and welcome to Inspired By All The Little Things! This is a bi-weekly inspiration challenge blog and each month we feature a wonderful designer who inspires us as an artist! 

This week I have invited...

Erica A-B

I adore Erica's style, and her attention to detail. I'm so excited that she is our May guest designer!

(In case you missed challenge #85)

I asked Erica to share a bit about herself...

1. My blog is called CaCaCraft and is a play on my name and my love of cookies. In my native Swedish cookie is ‘kaka’ and it sounds the same as ‘caca’. Some of my friends started calling me Ca-Ca and it just stuck I started it in Nov last year when I was asked to be a guest designer for Altenew. Seemed like a good time, not to mention great incentive, to start a blog as I had been thinking about it for a while.


2. I love making cards with textures, layers and colours but I don’t really have just one style. It really depends on my mood and what I decide to use that day.


3. Florals are always inspiring to me. I used to work as a florist and I loved it! The inspiration Photo is so pretty and feminine with fantastic colours and textures, what’s not to love??


4. A little something about me that you might not know? Hmm, toughie... many years ago I lived in Nashville and developed a love for country music, strawberry Twizzlers and White Fudge covered Flipz! Still to this day, I love all three

  

Here is Erica's card using this week's inspiration!

The different colours in the inspiration photo inspired me to think beyond the glass in each feather, almost back to the melting pot so to say. I tried conveying that in my card by using alcohol inks for a fluid background.

                           
                                   This is the card I created for the challenge:

I was inspired by the beautiful stained glass feathers. 

The challenge designers have also created a card for this week's inspiration! These ladies just inspire me SO much!!! I hope you will play along with us this week! We would love to have you join us!
