Inspired By... #47

Pink is my favorite color, especially a nice soft pastel pink.  October is Breast Cancer Awareness month so I couldn't let October go by without some pink inspiration now could I?

How will it inspire you? color, typewriter, letter, roses, vintage, sketch?  I can't wait to see.

I was inspired by a few things, obviously the pink but also the vintage, the letters and my sketch is somewhat based on the sketch or layout of the photo.  I used my Crate Paper Little Bo Peep collection and some May Arts Jute Twine.

I am also playing along with the 365 Cards Challenge - B - mine is: bow, bird, blossom)

I really love where this inspiration took her!

Thank you Jody for joining me this week. 

I went with the colors... I seem to always do that don't I ? ;) I pulled out my Random Crate Paper Collection.  I tied it off with some May Arts Jute twine.

Don't forget to play along in this week's Milk Carton Inspiration Challenge.

Inspired By...#45

I was really drawn to these milk containers and thought they would make such a great inspiration.

I love the retro feel, the text, the colors and the pennants on these... which way will you go?  

I had a lot of ideas when I first pinned the picture but in the end I went with the pennant with a single word.  I used my cricut to cut out the word and backed it with some Country Pumpkin Chower by Jillibean Soup.  I then used a bit of May Arts Woven burlap ribbon, which I stretched out, along with a stamp from Technique Tuesday, some Jute twine and of course the buttons are from PTI.  The main panel is mounted of foam squares for dimension.

I am playing along with the following challenges:

The Pink Elephant - Fall inspiration

Die Cuttin Divas: Fall colors (for me orange, brown and kraft)

CASology: Leaf

Little Red Wagon: Fall

I can't wait to see what you come up with.

Happy October! I am loving the neutral color palette that has been popping up for Halloween lately so when I saw this photo I was all over it ;)  

(source)

How will this inspire you?  Halloween, pumpkins, neutral colors, the texture or what about the black and white checked plate?  

I immediately thought of my All Hallow's Eve collection by Carta Bella and went with the Halloween theme and the neutral colors.  I upcycled a garage sale plastic frame, an empty plastic spice jar and a glass whiskey bottle with some spray paint and some of the papers and stickers.  The witch silhoutte was cut with my Chic & Scary Cricut cartridge.  Such a quick, easy and inexpensive project for adding some more of the 'spooky' feel around our house.  

Some close ups:

It is the first challenge of the month so I have a prize up for grabs:

I can't wait to see what you come up with.
