French Foliage for Foryourinspiration

Hi Everyone. Happy Wednesday. I have a quick post for you tonight. A card and some photos! I found a new challenge site - well, it's new to me anyway. It's a photo inspiration challenge and this photograph is just stunning and really got my creative juices running. As soon as I saw it, I knew exactly what I wanted to do with it. Check out the inspiration photograph and go check out the challenge site. It's a two week challenge, so you have plenty of time to join the fun. Isn't that stunning? I really so was inspired by...

Paris in Pink for casestudy

Hi Everyone. Happy Monday. I have a card inspired by a wonderful creation across at casestudy this week.

It really is.... it uses... Read more →

Grateful and what is really at the end of a rainbow!

Hi Everyone. Happy Thursday. I have a quick post for you tonight - and lots of photographs. I saw this wonderful challenge on a hiterto undiscovered site. It was a photo inspiration. the photo was a kiwi kiss green wall hanging with handwritten sayings on it. On the bed was a fabulous neutral duvet cover with two fabulously graphic cushions in black and white. Now... I was VERY inspired by the site - and very inspired by the photograph and, the reason that I am describing this inspiration (and doing a pretty poor job) is that I cannot find the... Read more →

Just a tad late to celebrate Rita

Hi Everyone. Unfortunately I wasn't able to join the blog hop - surprise blog hop that is - to celebrate Rita. Rita is a very talented member of the Freshly Made Sketches challenge blog, as well as a Paper Players alumni. She's a fabulous lady and she is at a really exciting time in her life right now. Several of her web friends got together to stage a surprise blog hop. I missed it - but wanted to find a way to celebrate her anyway. You can read all about the blog hop - and check out all the fabulous... Read more →
