Inspired By #36 ... fall picnic


I am beyond happy to tell you that we have Reverse Confetti as our sponsor this week!  Add this Autumnal scene, and you are sure to be Inspired By #36 … fall picnic:


I chose this darling little stamp set to use: Cotton & Thistle, available very soon in the latest Reverse Confetti release September 9th!


There are a few things in this photo that inspired me... a few you might not have noticed:  that wonderful yellow sweater, the plaid of the blanket, and the soft blue of the cup I've used to color the cotton bolls!

I may be Inspired to create second helpings … thanks Reverse Confetti!!
