Essentials by Ellen Pinsights Challenge

I couldn't even begin to say how many ways Essentials by Ellen October Pinsight Challenge inspiration photo could take me to card-making nirvana!  Check it out:

There could [probably] be more, but here is one for today:
 
Essentials by Ellen Julie Ebersole's Bohemian Garden bloom,
and Hello sentiment from Julie's Mondo Magnolia.
I think it might be pretty clear which photo from the collage stirred me today, right?  My little embossing folder stepped up to provide the perfect platform for my little bloom.  I'd love to jump into that photo, and grab that sweater!! wouldn't you?
 
Have a great Monday, everyone!  Thanks for sharing a bit of it with me...

    Enjoying a cup of tea at the moment, I would go for some of the yummy looking eats to go with it!!! And I have to agree, that sweater is stunning - maybe I should get the yarn and needles out!!! Love the houndstooth paper and that lovely flower you've got on your beautiful card!!! Everything put together so perfectly!!
    Have a lovely day!!!!
