Today I am joining in with the Inspired By Challenge as a Guestie invited by my blogging buddy, Lisa Elton! How fun is that?! I sure thought so :).
There are many choices for the challenge. You can be inspired by the photos, or the sketch, or mix it all up. While I didn't use the sketch, I was inspired by the bottom photo. I loved the color combo, along with the fun plaid ribbon.
I also used another Sizzix Leaves Die and layered those under the cage. Lastly, I cut the bird out of a water colored panel in my stash. [He came in handy to cover up the stems of the leaves] The sentiment is from Simon Says Sentiment Strips.
That was really fun! I have always enjoyed inspiration challenges. Thanks so much Lisa for inviting me to play along! Now my Followers, it's your turn! How do the photos inspire you? Come on over to Inspired By Challenge and join in the fun!
Thanks for stopping by~
