For today's Inspiration Challenge - we had the site Unsplash to look through.
I got rather overwhelmed looking through all the photos so I ended up being inspired by the string of leaves Amy choose as a sample.
It reminded me that I had just purchased the Sizzix cut out leaves on sale and was happy to get them out and use them!
I sponged 4 different colors of Distress ink on a panel of watercolor paper. Then I die cut 5 of the leaves out of another panel of watercolor paper and laid it over the inked panel.
I tied a piece of twine around the card and added the strip sentiment on foam dots.
Hope everyone is having a nice weekend - the weather in MA is lovely today - but I think rain is coming back tomorrow.

I can't decide what I like more about this card . . .The vibrant sponged autumn coloring in the bg panel of those fabulous die cut leaf skeletons. Wonderful CAS design.
