Inspired By #32

Welcome to another Inspired By Challenge.  The photo I chose today is not really me at all, hehehe.  I am not much of a girly girl, and don't wear a lot of color but I was really drawn to this photo.


So many ways to take this: the colors, the metal, buckle, pearls, purse, fashion... Can't wait to see what you do!

I decided to use my Heidi Swapp Sugar  Chic papers.  Usually when I think of doing baby girl cards I think of the pastel colors, but for some reason when I saw this Sugar Chic paper by Heidi Swapp I had to try it.  Negative die cuts are the trend right now so I used my Cricut to cut out the letters from the cardstock and let the pattern paper show through.  I also used my Cricut to create the little outfit hanging on the clothes pins.  




Don't forget to check out StopAndScrap for some great deals and to see some of the new stuff that is arriving!

Can't wait to see how you take this fun inspiration picture!

Inspired By #31

I am still away on my vacation and most likely having a great 
time ;)

I love the coziness of this inspiration photo.  I would love to have a cottage with a kitchen like this.  


I wonder what elements you are going to pull from this photo?  colors, kitchen, flowers, stripes?  Can't wait to see.

I pulled out the colors and the country feel of the photo by using my Lily Bee Handmade papers.  The stamps are Kitchen Gadgets and Kitchen Gadgets 2 from The Alley Way Stamps, and I cut the sentiment with my cricut - From My Kitchen cartridge.

This is the first challenge of the month so I will have a prize. So be sure to play along!
