IB167 Hello Fall

Hi everyone!  It's Thursday and that means a new Inspired By!  Here are our two choices this week, aren't they gorgeous?

 


Great sketch as well!!!


My stampin' mojo has gone missing lately, and I feel like I struggled a bit with my card today; the inspiration photos are gorgeous, I just haven't been focused enough, I guess!  Anyway, I actually used the FMS sketch this week but my foliage is so "lush" that it's hard to see, so I'll not enter it,   but my friends said I should enter it!!!  So here we go:


And here's the FMS sketch:


I used the top photo as my inspiration, diecutting three woodgrain squares, then sponging some white craft ink, then Seaside Spray on them to tone them down a little.  I used Forever Flourishing dies for the greenery, sponging the Sage Shadow ones with some white craft ink as well, then adding some Evening Evergreen ones poking out from behind.  The yellow berries are from the Poinsettia dies, and I added some Metallic pearls and a wee bit of Lost Lagoon ribbon to "tie" it all together:


A sentiment from my trusty Wreath for All Seasons from Papertrey provided my sentiment.  The main panel is Naturals White, diecut with a Wonky Stitched die and it was mounted on an Early Espresso card base:


I hope you'll find some inspiration in either of these photos, or the sketch, or both!  Hope to see you in the Inspired By gallery with whatever you create!  Thanks for popping in today!  

I am pretty sure I forgot to post this picture -- the family went to a monster truck race...that thing IS a monster!  Oh, and she got her boot off Monday!  YAY!


Enjoy your day and be blessed!
