Sponsor Giveaways: Digital Scrapbook Memories, The Vintage Pearl, & Blueberry Freckles

All of these give-a-ways are great! My mom is inspiring me lately. She did pretty good with scrapbooking while we were younger but the busy life with four kids and working as a labor and delivery nurse got the best of her and she got behind. She had surgery a few months ago and hasn't been able to work. Since she has been stuck at home she has completed all of our family scrapbooks from 1981-2006. That is amazing!! She works so hard at scrapbooking, organizing, labeling pictures, recording memories she can remember, printing pictures, and putting them in chronological order. She really has worked so hard! Since I am still young and only have two little girls she has inspired me to try and stay on top of my scrapbooking and stay organized. Thanks mom, you inspire me everyday!

I'm due with a little girl soon & this mobile has definately inspired me with a direction for the nursery.
I can't wait to do some hand sewing & make this.

What's inspiring me? Kelly green and all of the colourful spring fashions!

My dear friend, Sue, has been inspiring me on her blog http://urbanlittlehouse.blogspot.com/
She has done a color focus for lent and a fun photo meme project.
Wow, what great giveaways, a retreat sounds fabulous and I drool over the lovelies at The Vintage Pearl frequently. Now to head over to the other sites!

Spring is inspiring me today! It is in the 40's and sunny in Mn. The air is fresh and I can see the snow melting! It's time to open up the windows and bring in the outside!

Lately I have been very inspired by a Flickr group I am a part of:
Oklahoma Strobist
Lots of talented people on there and I got to meet several of them this past weekend. It is nice to meet people behind the camera and pick their brains for ideas. Really keeps me going!

I'm inspired by my happy-go-lucky, positive and upbeat coworker. She makes happiness contagious. Its a good feeling. :)

People inspire me everyday.. kindness, thoughtfulness... just wow!

I have been wanting to learn more about Photoshop Elements and how to properly Edit my pictures so I have been inspired by Jessica Spagues( www.jessicasprague.com )new photo editing class. Something about this time of year makes me want to start a new fun project and take time to play.

scrapbook inspiration has been coming from back issues of CK - not very original but I've been flipping through and then scrapbooking every night. a rare thing for me.
life inspiration has been coming from the Word and all the promises in there. that we are loved.

I'm inspired by the work others share with me. Most people are shy about sharing their work so I really appreciate it when they do. I can always get SOME type of inspiration out of someone else's creation. Thank you.

I'm inspired by the change in the weather that is hinting that Spring will be here soon. We all have cabin fever and can't wait to get outside and enjoy some warm fresh air!

I've been in a funk these last few days, but the thought of spring and getting everything fresh and organized is inspiring to me.

Being outside with my little boys - jumping in puddles, sliding in mud, climbing "mountains" and seeing God's creation through their eyes.

I haven't been scrapping for quite a few weeks, but last night the March kit from Nook landed on my doorstep and all of a sudden all of my creativity has come back! http://www.myscrapbooknook.com/club.shtml

I stay with a 47 year old lady that has life threating problems and she inspires me everyday because if she can get out of bed and go on then I sure can

i'm not too inspired today. i got layed off from my job yesterday, so i'm pretty bummed. :(

I hope I'm not too late, I'm not sure of the time difference! I'm finding that _everything_ is inspiring me at the moment. I'm carrying a camera around so I can take snapshots of the inspiration from nature, clothes people are wearing, shop window displays... My 'favourites' are overflowing because I keep stumbling across websites and thinking, 'Ooh, I must come back to that!' And I'm keeping a journal of quotations I hear, things the kids say, things I've read, etc, etc. I know it'll all be so useful when I next have a 'dry' period!

I've been inspired by my four kids...the things they do, the patterns and textiles they wear, they're spunky personalities, their love for each other, and the footprints they leave in our home each day. My 5 year olds creations and little notes and books she reads are a great source of inspiration all through the day.
