As soon as I read the word inspiration I thought of the release of the American journalists from North Korea. Their families love, support, and determination for justice is inspiring.

What's been inspiring me lately are all these fabulous blogs!! I spend hours jumping from one to another to another ... and my poor little brain is simply overwhelmed by all the wonderful art. But it's a great way to spend a stormy afternoon.
Thanks to Ali and all of the contributors for such fabulous giveaways!!

I am inspired by home. My father passed away last year; I returned home to stay in the house I grew up in. Traveling around the property, taking pictures that represent my favorite memories of home...the beginnings of my new 6x6 project!

I've been walking my puppies earlier in the morning to avoid the scorching August heat. I've been inspired by how peaceful the mornings are before the crazy hustle & bustle of people driving (speeding) around town begins. It's a great time to think and plan creative ventures.

Oh, Ali, how do you keep coming up with new inspiration? I am all dried up lately and don't even feel like creating. What's wrong with me? However (besides all the amazing blogs I regularly visit),it's words that are starting to move me this week and give me the grain of ideas. Small beginnings that can grow into something beautiful!

What a great giveaway thanks so much for the chance to win. I am inspired by the little things that are around me :- the way the sun shines through my window in the morning, watching children's faces as they watch the circus for the first time, walking the empty beach at sunset - I could go on for ages but will stop here.

What a wonderful giveaway! What is inspiring me lately is the recent deaths of some close family and friends. Many of them did not have their memories documented and I know it saddened many of their family members. It really showed me how important scrapbooking our lives really is!
