Inspiration is everywhere

So last night I pulled out my inspiration notebook last night in search of some, well, inspiration! I had saved this ad from the newspaper in there - I love the color of the flowers against the black and white. So I pulled out some stamps and attempted to replicate it. I think I captured the idea, though I am not happy about the brads at the top left corner. I thought the corner needed something, but that didn't really work as well as I'd hoped. Oh, well. I defintely love the red/green black color combination! The flower stamp is from SU's Heartfelt Thanks set, one of my all-time faves. The sentiment is a Michael's $1 stamp. Colors are real red, always artichoke and basic black. Now off to find some more inspiration!

Wonderful work, Michelle!! Your blog is coming along nicely. I try to check it out a couple of times a week, at least.

Keep up the good work!!
