One lucky reader will receive Yume Design'sLIVE, LAUGH, LOVE hand-stamped necklace. Three pendants in varying sizes are hand-stamped and embellished with a simple pink bead charm hanging from an 18" sterling silver bead ball chain necklace. This prize is valued at $44.
Artist Diana Egusa started metal stamping simply as a grounding, creative outlet to balance her life in the hectic corporate world. After friends and family took notice of her creative designs and started requesting custom pieces for themselves, Diana discovered that her casual hobby had quickly turned into a successful fledgling business.
Yume Design features personalized hand-stamped sterling silver jewelry. Diana works with her clients' inspirations to create custom, unique pieces; each creation is one-of-a kind, made with high-quality, heavy gauge, 100% Sterling Silver to withstand everyday use.

I'm inspired by Canon EOS Digital Photography Photo Workshop (Paperback)(http://www.amazon.com/Canon-Digital-Photography-Photo-Workshop/dp/0470114347/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1249788908&sr=8-1). This book has gotten me working on my photography tech skills which is almost as important as having an artist vision. At least, I think so.

Lately I've been inspired by paintchips! Learning to let go of perfectionism, my summer has been filled with daring colors that are not only changing the walls but changing me. This week's color: Teal Zeal for the schoolroom!

I am inspired by all the creative people around me as I try to develop an idea that encompasses my skills and creativity to be made into a little business so I can continue to be a stay at home Mum to my kids, 2 and 4.
On another note I am totally inspired by my close friends as we all rally to help one of us who had been diagnosed with a terminal brain tumor. I am amazed at how quickly we have come together to help them and created a foundation to look after her 4 year old son into the future, people are amazing! I should mention would love to give her the necklace with some inspired words and her husband and son's names.

As cliche as it may sound, I am totally inspired by my kids and the things they do and say and how they think and process things. What can I say,... I'm totally smitten!

I am completely inspired by my blog roll. I have a list of blogs that I've bookmarked that I check daily. I'm not only in awe at their design ideas, but the lifestyles they lead and how most of the women manage to create, eat organically, raise children, and do everything else that they do! Molly Irwin is a favorite right now - - her blog is so clean and comforting and full of such simple, yet creative ideas. Love my blogs : )

I am so inspired watching my granddaughters, Abbi(2) and Lilli(1 month) as they grow and change each time that I see them (even though that may be more than once a week). I want to capture their innocence and wonder so that I can always look back and remember this wonderful time. This goes hand in hand with the inspiration that comes from not feeling old enough to be a grandma and feeling young enough to play with them!

Hmm...what is inspiring me? Positive attitudes have been inspiring me. Instead of maybe, I use when I go, or I will. That is inspiring.
