Nature Inspiration - Autumn Colors

Hi crafty friends,
the time is right for a new theme on OCC - Nature Inspiration, this month we have an very inspiring mood board with so many beautiful nature textures and structures.


Die Natur beginnt sich zur Ruhe zu setzen, es wird kühler, regnet häufiger und der Wind pfeift mächtig ums Haus. Der Herbst zieht ins Land. Erntezeit, aber auch wunderbare Zeit, um wieder in den Wald zu ziehen, durch's fallende Herbstlaub zu rascheln, Pilze zu suchen und verborgene Geheimnisse im Wald zu entdecken, wenn der Morgennebel von den Wiesen aufsteigt.
Das war meine Idee zu diesem Mixed Media Projekt.

Nature begins up to the rest to put, it is cool, raining more frequently, and the wind blows mightily around the House. The autumn draws in the country. Harvest time, but also wonderful time, to pull back into the forest, to rustle through falling autumn leaves, to find mushrooms and uncover hidden secrets in the forest, when the morning mist of the meadows rises.
This was my idea for this mixed media project.

 Enjoy the moments




Inspiriert von den detailverliebten Naturaufnahmen unserer Claudia habe ich verschiedene Blatt-, Ast- und Blütenmotive ausgesucht und diese zunächst aufgeklebt, mit weißem Gesso grundiert und mit warmen
Herbstfarben - braun grün kupfer - (Sprühfarben) coloriert.


Inspired by our Claudia from the detailed nature shots, I have chosen different leaf, twigs and flower motifs and first glued them, with white gesso primed and warm
autumn colors - Brown - evergreen - gray - copper - (spray paints) colored.



Dieses alte Türmotiv stammt von einem Scrapbookpapier (BoBunny)

für den Hintergrund wurden auch Schablonen genutzt, Rays Tim Holtz und Spiderweb + Wire Dutch Doobadoo

This month it is Claudia's turn to be the Challenge Host and she has provided us with a wonderful challenge! She would like us all to use this photo collage to inspire us!
It is an "anything goes" challenge - as long as there are visible influences from the inspirational image!
You can use only one or few of the images from the collage as inspirational source. You can go for a colour scheme you saw, a texture or shape, a theme you associate with the collage (in whole or partially). As long as you explain in your posts how your creation is linked to the inspirational image you can go for whatever it sparks in you.

  3. Das raschelnde Herbstlaub und die Vorahnung der ersten Fröste seh ich in deinem herrlichen Projekt, liebe Kerstin!

    Alles, was ich am Herbst so mag, ist da zu finden - jede Menge Strukturen - wie die von welken Blättern, abgestorbener Rinde, Raureif auf Zweigen... eine sehr gefühlvolle Interpretation der Challenge, die mir sagt, da hört und sieht eine genau hin, was die Poesie des Herbstes ausmacht!

    Sorry für den verspäteten Kommentar!
    Liebe Grüße,

    Claudia x
