Art Attack Blog Candy!!!......

I dare you to make a card inspired by a work of art.


Oooh very clever dare Rhi!!! I have a terrible migraine today but wanted to get this card made before the light was too bad to photograph it. (sorry it's not a great photo!!)

This is inspired by a piece of work called 'Geometric Flowers 'and is created by an Artist of the Art Deco era.

That's all I am going to tell you!! I will put together a little blog candy package(sorry no photo yet!) leave a comment with the Artist name and I will pick one correct answer randomely out of a pot(sorry no hats!!) next Wednesday 11 April.

One last clue - the colours are typical of this artist.

Very quick simple card made with cardstock, buttons and embroidery thread from stash.

Good Luck!!!!!

Beautiful, I would have said Clarice Cliff too, and it seems to be the general concensus!

A fantastic interpretation, so glad you enjoyed the dare,

Oh this is nice - I love all the attention you've given to the details, how the "frame" sets off the rest of the card perfectly.
