Inspired By #38 ... fall foliage


Could there be anything more beautiful than the colors of Fall?  Okay, those Springtime greens are pretty hard to beat!  But, when you live in the land of Maple trees, shades of orange abound! 

The muted, grayed-down shades of this week's Inspired By photo make my heart go pitter-patter!  and so does white china!


TCP This Could be Vodka dies, and Altenew Beautiful Day stamps and dies
 

Rusty Hinge, and Hickory Smoke distress inks imperfectly smooshed onto a panel of water color cardstock set a wonderful table-scape for my little cups, and bowl.  The same inks were used to water color those little sprigs of fall foliage.

What will you be Inspired By this week?

    Fantastic take on the inspiration photo with elegance, Michele! The white cups beautifully pop against Rusty Hinge & Hickory Smoke smooshed background! I love that you used vellum for the die-cut flower design cup. It's so pretty and adds so much interest. Hideko xx

    What a stunner, Michele ... in every little detailed way! I'm thinking that tiny floral bowl must be porcelaine rather than china, given it's wonderful translucence! Hugs, Anita :)

    This has to be one of my favorites, Michele. Your smooshing is flabbergasting. (I'm trying out some new adjectives LOL)
