Three Clover Thursday - Dare to be Inspired

Welcome to another installment of Three Clover Thursday Challenge. This week Kerry gave us an Inspiration Challenge. Our Inspiration had to come from this cake. Talk about a "challenge!" - Those colors are so bright you almost need sunglasses to look at the cake and my card(s) - Yep, I did 2 cards for this challenge.

My first card is based on a card that I saw here: by the talented Sharon L. Johnson. I loved the layout so I based my card around that. I also was inspired by the colors of the inspiration piece and the flowers and circles. I chose papers that had circular patterns and used floral stamps/embellishments to tie it all in. My next card is totally different but still inspired by the colors and flowers of the inspiration cake.
