(5) Inspiration All Around

Hello Ladies,

Do you ever stop and ponder where you draw your inspiration from? I sometimes wonder if everything has not been done.

I am longing for warm weather to get outside with my littles and get my hands dirty. I was at Costco buying groceries and immediately was struck by all the beautiful bulbs and gardening supplies.

It reminded me that spring is just around the corner.

I was doing my usual pinteresting and have been adding some beauties to my "Mon Petit Jardin" board,

when I noticed how many packages of flowers and how many millinery flowers I have purchased over the years.

Ohhh Millinery your delicate nature and your soft velvets call to me!

I have completely destroyed my craft room in the last two weeks and am in the middle of four swaps that are in need of my attention before i can start cleaning.

Lately I wonder if I will ever find a way to organize my things where it will make sense. I envy those who have it all figured out.

I wanted to take this opportunity to share a few projects I am happy to say are complete.

My crafty brain has been in over drive lately and I am happy to report that I am using and not hoarding

 This is Melody Ross Paper made by GCD studios.

Embellished with K& C bird die cut & Flower stickers, Prima Flowers Pearl swirls, vintage lace, Washi  tape and Melody Ross sheers and paper phrases.

Another Melody Ross line ...with Hambly frame rub-on assorted American Crafts sticker letters, Jenni Bowlin Bunting and vintage inspired red button, Maya Road Washi & trim, 

This layout was created with Melody Ross paper as well. I love how this line was both masculine and feminine. I wish more lines had this much versatility. 

I used lots of embellishments on this one. Jenni Bowlin, Maya Road, Glitz Designs, assorted washi tape, and 7 Gypsies fabric tape and stickers... 

OK off to start on another pile of photos for more projects to share...

Hugs, 

Tabitha
