Oh my I can't believe that for me summer is finally going to start!  School is out for the students today and I have to go in tomorrow but then 'School's Out for Summer!'  I can't wait!

When I saw this inspiration photo I new I had to use it for today's challenge.

So I wonder where it is going to take you?  A picnic theme? the colors? the flowers? Can't wait to see.

For my project I used my Fresh Goods paper by Pebbles (that I have hoarded since I got it).  I just love the fun, fresh colors and patterns in this collection.  When I saw these photos in my daughter's folder I knew immediately I had to scrap them with this collection.  I used my Cricut to cut the title, tags and pennants.  The 'milk cap' embellishment is from Pretty Little Studio but all else is from the Pebbles collection.



I can't wait to see what you do!

I am glad that you have stopped by for another Inspired By Challenge.  With the official start to summer I was inspired by this sunburst quilt.



How will you take the inspiration? The colors? The sunshine? A sunburst?  The sketch?  

Funny thing is, I was actually going to do a sunburst just like this with these colors even.  Somehow, I stuck with the sketch and the sunburst (I have been wanting to do one on a layout for awhile now - finally pushed myself to do it)... but you will see I did not stick with the colors!

I used my Amy Tangerine Sketchbook collection and the stamps are from the Oh Snap! set by There She Goes.  I am really happy with how this turned out.


I can't wait to see what you do!

Inspired By #28

Welcome to another Inspired By challenge.  Since Father's Day is this Sunday, I thought I would go with a masculine feeling inspiration photo.


So how will you take the inspiration? The colors, woodgrain, wreath, distressed, a circular element? I can't wait to see what you do.

For my project I made a card and I pulled out the colors of the inspiration piece.  I used the Note to Self collection by Echo Park along with some twine to finish it off. 

I used this week's sketch from 2Peas:

Inspired By #27

Another fun inspiration challenge for you this week.


I wonder where this will take you? The colors, the limes, cakes, sweet things, the sketch? 

For my project I used my Coconut Lime Soup Collection by Jillibean Soup and scrapped these fun photos I took one evening when we got together with hubby's family.  My SIL and her family are always snapping photos of themselves, I tend to like the non posed ones that really tell the story. Laughter really is the best medicine and we always have a lot when we are together.  I have also used a bit of twine and the brown letters are from Amy Tangerine.  I cut the pennants with my Cricut Art Philosophy.


Last weekend Creative Scrappers had an online crop, I didn't have time to take part but I really like the sketches so I used one of them for this layout.



Now this is the first challenge of the month so I have a prize up for grabs, some 6 X 6 pads of Jillibean Soup.


Now I can't wait to see what you do!
