DDIC10 "Leave"ing you Inspiration

Good Morning!!! I hope your week is going well. Today is the Divine Diva Inspiration Challenge. Lori sent us this picture of bedding for our inspiration.

The photo really made me think of fall, hence the leaves and the browns and golds on my card. I used one of the Mojo 100 Anniversary sketches. The leaves are from the God's Beauty hostess set. I embossed the leaves in gold. I had hope to use some different leaves but I just have toooooooooo many stamps and I could not find it. I spent hours looking! I know, that when I am not looking for it, I will find it.

Card Recipe:
Stamps: God's Beauty
Paper: SEI, SU Thoroughly Modern, Chocolate Chip
Accessories: Pearls, Ribbon Bowtizue Ribbon, Textile Embossing folder, Top Note Die

The Divine Diva has lots of inspiration for you this week. I am so excited to be welcoming our newest team member Anne Harmon (aka jdmommy) of Inking in Red. Anne is such a sweetheart and has so many awesome creations. Her blog is a real treat and I always enjoy visiting her. Welcome Anne!!!! Please click on over to her blog as well as the divine divas to see their awesome creations.

Thanks for stopping by today. I hope I have inspired you to create. Should you use this photo as an inspiration for a card or project, please a direct link here. Should you upload it to SC or PCP, please use the keyword DDIC10.

Have a great day!!
