Amazing Inspiration with Elena Roussakis!

Hey everyone, today we are featuring some pretty awesome cards by Elena Roussakis. Elena was one of the challenge winners last month. I've also been following her work for some time now and one thing is for sure, this girl consistently pounds out beautiful, whimsical cards that have a certain charm to them. 

I hope you'll visit her blog HERE to see so much more wonderful creations! In the meantime, we're so lucky to have her here today to share her ME creations with us! take it away, Elena!

I'm thrilled to be able to show off the cards I made using Mama Elephant's Bling set.

First up, I had to use my fave gal with this sentiment - they are such a perfect match:

my world is brighter

I layered some patterned papers and tried my best to fussy-cut around her for a fun focal banner.  Coloring in the dots of the word "brighter" is a great way to accent it!

Next up, a much softer take on the set:

wish you were here

I used some of the same notebook-style patterned paper on the left, and brought in a frame  and added some twinkle in the night sky.  I added a luggage tag behind the frame - it doesn't move or anything (although that would be cool) but I think it still adds to that "wish you were here" feeling.

I colored in only the lights in the building where I pointed the speech bubble.

I hope you like my ME projects today - thanks for stopping by!

  1. Damn, these are cute! Hehehe.I am in love, love, LOVE with the fussy cut little gal--it really does bring unique visual interest to the banner and she works so perfectly with the sentiment. The dimension on your second card is lovely, subtle and it goes well with the soft night sky. Beautiful!
