What's inspiring now is the potential for change in my life ... I'm exploring some new avenues and options (both personally and professionally), and just the journey is very inspiring! Thanks for the giveaway chance Ali!

A deadline is inspiring me right now. I only have the rest of today and tomorrow until I go back to school for the fall. Desperation is a great motivator. I have finished a mini album and one 12 X 12 page. I have lots more to do, but I'm confident that I will get a few more finished before my deadline.

Inspiration lately? I guess the riot of color in our garden is truly an inspiration to me! The flowers are in full bloom and the colors are very deep (thanks to the rain we've had) and the blooms prolific!

My latest inspiration is the trip to the art store last week. Whenever my son has to go for an eye doctor visit in Toronto it means I get to stop at my favourite fine art store...It makes me so happy to walk amongst the art supplies...I want to buy buy buy and go straight home to create!
Thank you for the awsome giveaways!

Taking pictures with my old camera has been an inspiration. After attending CPR and learning so many things from all the wonderful teachers has taken my picture taking to the next level.

The birth of my son has been the most inspiring experience of my life. I am in awe of how delicate and miraculous the creation of life is. I am so lucky to have the opportunity to document and partake of such a sweet spirit! (This giveaway entry actually inspired a page for his album).

Something inspiring me lately is magazines. I hadn't read any in awhile, and now I'm finding inspiration on every page!

Lately, I have been inspired by artist Sabrina Ward Harrison...her books/artwork are so amazing...the colors and words that she uses throughout her work can be so simple yet incredibly beautiful..check her out if you've never looked at her work.

Color and paint are inspiring me right now. I'm working on a canvas/art piece that I'm so very excited about, because I'm rediscovering a passion that I forgot I had.

My husband is inspiring me right now. He's been unemployed for 6+ months, and no one is interviewing him. Yet he is still delighting in every moment he gets to spend at home with our two girls getting to know them better. I know their lives and memories will be so much better for this time that he has had with them. It's been great having him home, but through it all he knows that God is going to provide a job and hopefully will soon.
