thursday thoughts

i have been really inspired by darker colors lately. i guess it has to do with my thoughts of upcoming fall. i had to share this top image from donna hay magazine {issue 33}.

i love the little mini apple and cinnamon pies. i also love the use of the contrasting black & white photo on the opposite page. the art direction in donna hay, particularly in this issue, is amazing. i love the autumn and winter issues because they tend to experiment more and venure away from their traditional white backgrounds {although they are beautiful too}.

the bottom photo is from a series i am working on for some wedding/gift related cards for a boutique.

i have added a new section to my side bar, featured favorites. this will include my current favorite blog reads.

i am currently:

loving these photos.

listening to this music.

hungry for this meal.

smitten with this photo.

have a wonderful thursday!

p.s. does anyone have any idea how to get the spacing to work correctly in blogger? i keep editing it and even editing the html, but it just seems to do whatever it wants when i publish it.
