The hope of spring! It's still most definitely winter here in Iowa, but we're starting to see signs of spring -- brighter sun, longer days, melting ice & snow . . .

24HFitness... i know its unusual, but I work at a hospital full of sick patients. I'm inspired to stay healthy!!

I am inspired by my people at my LSS where I belong to a couple of clubs. The women I meet there are so talented!

Wow, the necklace that Erin made with your names on it is gorgeous, Ali! I recently ordered one for my sister with her three boys' names on it - can't wait for it to arrive in the mail! Lately I've been inspired by things that people post in Etsy. It's such a neat way to see what other artists are out there doing all around the world. :)

the cataloges i have been getting (j.crew, land of nod, etc.) are just to fun.
i appreciate how inspiring your blog is also... total kiss up.

I am inspired by God's wonderful creation every time I look out my windows. I see an awesomely beautiful mountain and brilliant blue skies. I see how well it fits together & know it could not have happened just by accident.

Right now I am all over flickr, looking for fun colorful spring pictures, much like these...http://www.flickr.com/photos/mexycan/2276446204/ because I am SO SO very tired of winter!
I am also inspired by my photography book I have been reading, trying to improve my skill set there. I tried some new settings over the weekend, to my delight, I got some fun and new shots. So I am inspired to keep plugging away at this hobby!

I am inspired by a new batch of photos at the minute. I just got a new camera a few weeks ago and I can't wait to scrap the new photos I just recieved in the post.

My family has been inspiring me along with this gorgeous weather out in AZ! I collaged a large piece of recycled glass yesterday with some of my favorite pictures of the last five years:

It sounds goofy, but the National Geographic magazine I flipped through today in the doctor's office totally inspired me. While I waited for my hubby, I jotted notes for an hour. Every story and picture gave me ideas for new poems (which I desperately needed). Sometimes, all it takes is a look outside of our normal routine to find loads of inspiration. :D

Colour is inspiring. All those pretty colours.
This site cultivates inspiration.

Things that inspire me right now are fabrics!! I can feel an affair with my sewing machine looming on the horizon.

There is so much that I have found inspiring lately, but especially scrapping friends. It never fails, all I have to do is check out my bloglist, and the ideas just flow!

I am currently inspired by the packaging on the makeup I just bought from Benefit. http://www.benefitcosmetics.com/gp/node/n/164953011/185-4046084-6606467?ie=UTF8&bcBrand=core
They have some amazing designers who use fun colors and great fonts.

A new camera has been inspiring me to take not only more photos lately, but to take risks and get some really interesting shots. Can't wait to print and scrap them!

the sunshine peering through the clouds and lighting up a cherry blossom tree on the way into work this morning and my 13-year old daughter's laughter as she teaches me how to "correctly" spell words when sending a text message.

I am inpired by the nice weather outside..time to get the kids outside again and take pictures outside. I love having a change of pace from the inside pictures of the winter. :)

I am inspired, not only lately but always, by SouleMama - http://www.soulemama.com/soulemama/ .

My amazing friends - so many of them strong, independant, creative women that wear many hats in life. Wife, mother, daughter, sister, friend, employee, artist, etc. Love them!

i am inspired by the food network magazine that i recently subscribed to -- to knock myself out of my cooking rut and try new things!
