Inspiration Revealed - Cherry Blossoms

"Inspiration revealed" is a new feature on the blog. I will utilize a collage and/or photos to show the inspiration and the end product. If you have a photo of something that inspired you and the piece of art you created from that inspiration, please send me some photos and I will post them in this feature. It's great way to share and get some free promo as well. If you have an online store, I will be happy to link to it!

Here's my first Inspiration revealed:

All those cherry blossom pictures I took this Spring were not for nothing. Their inspiration led to this lovely little addition to my "Out on a Limb" Series . The necklace and the inspiration below!

My creation

I love the idea of showing the inspiration behind the work. It's like showing the before and after of a makeover, instead of just the after!

great job on capturing the essence of the flowers! I really like this one. You should do a tutorial on carving the stamp because your lines are so neat and deep. I Want to know how you do it because mine aren't that clean. :o)

My first visit to your blog, and this is the kind of thing I love--seeing the inspiration and the finished product!

Thanks everyone! ODD - No real secret to it, it's just a steady hand and a sharp linoleum cutter. Welcome Karen!
