ETSY Inspired #92

I am back as the Guest Designer for the second ETSY Inspired Challenge for June challenge #92!!! Are you ready?

This week's shop is My Zoetrope . Ok- because I was curious, and you might be too, I looked up the meaning of Zoetrope. The origin of the word is from the Greek and "wheel of life". According to Dictionary.com

 /ˈzoʊiˌtroʊp/ Show Spelled[zoh-ee-trohp]
–noun
a device for giving an illusion of motion, consisting of a slitted drum that, when whirled, shows a succession of images placed opposite the slits within the drum as one moving image.

Don't let anyone tell you crafting isn't educational.

So- I spent some time looking around the store and I have to share this hysterical print with you.
Seriously! How could you look at that and not giggle just a tiny bit? LOVE it!!!
However, for my inspiration today I selected THIS print (go look!). I just loved all the greens used. This is what I came up with.

This sweet dragon is drawn by Lisa Victoria for Sweet Pea Stamps. It is fun and easy to color. I think another time I will put a saying in the heart. There is certainly room for it and I can think of several different things that would work well. After coloring the image I used Basic Grey for my background and was able to use all sorts of cheerful bright colors. The flower center is actually a gorgeous bright green glitter bobble I made with my Viva Decor Glitter Liner in Peridot. I am loving these- they are soooooo versatile. Get just one and you will be hooked so just order all of them to start with :)

Don't forget that when you play along with the ETSY Inspired Challenges you have the opportunity to win a prize. This week there are TWO prizes!
