I'm inspired by the "new eye" I've found through the lens of my camera. Everything is new. fresh. There is an appeal to everything- as a whole or in fragments. Life IS beautiful & inspiring- most especially in the unexpected & overlooked at times!

Reading these blogs inspires me. i am amazed at the quality of craft/art that is created by busy moms (and others). Ali and Donna and Cathy inspire me almost daily. Love this craft and that you ladies exist and continue to recreate what we can aspire to.

Love the give-aways! I'm inspired by some of my old scrapbooks...when I first started scrapbooking SO many years ago and just used pictures and words with a few colored papers and stickers. So simple but so special. I need to get back there.

Hi Ali!
Lately I have been inspired by fabric, fabric, and more fabric. It's something new for me, so I'm starting small and trying to incorporate it into my scrapbooking, cards, and small crafts. It's addicting like paper!

I am inspired by my family.
It's a wonderful feeling, knowing your children have come full circle and some of what they are doing is a direct result of how you raised them.

Seeing all of the new hot colors for fall is inspiring me. I'm especially loving the gorgoeus blues and gray-and-yellow combo that is so popular right now. I'm dreaming up all kinds of layouts and home decor projects!

my husband. while he is on "paternity" leave (we have a one and a half week old), he is getting SO much accomplished. it's so encouraging and inspiring to see him be productive and enjoy it.
