Inspired By....

my big box of SU goodies that arrived on my doorstep yesterday!! When I saw Beate's weekend sketch challenge, I automatically thought of my new Inspired By Nature stamp set. Unfortunately, I miscalculated and had to flip the sketch, but I think it still works, don't you?? (Just nod and smile, Kay??!!) Anyway, I used markers to color my image and then used the "huffing" technique to re-moisten what had dried. I stamped it on a piece of white card stock and layered it with Ruby Red, Pumpkin Pie and Chocolate Chip. I added some big silver brads that Jackie sent me, and adhered it to my base. The DP on the base is from the Summer Picnic DSP pack and it is layered with Ruby Red and Chocolate Chip. I added some of my new Chocolate ribbon and some pumpkin gingham(Offray). The sentiment is from the Sweet Serendipity set and it was punched out with my designer label punch. The hardware is from the SU stylized silver hardware. I pierced a border around the edge of the base, and down the main panel by the ribbon and it was done. I have to say, I LOVE this new set...SO PRETTY!!
Well, that is it for me now, thank you for stopping by and have an awesome day(or night)!!!
