Inspired!




I can't take credit for the layout design of this card. I pulled out a bunch of papers last night and just sat there looking at them waiting for the inspiration to hit me. But after about 10 min I got bored and grabbed the most recent special issue of STAMP IT! cards magazine put out by Papercrafts Magazine. I found this ADORABLE mushroom card made by Laura Williams.

I have an adorable mushroom stamp from AMUSE so I thought I'd try this out for something simpler than what I've been doing lately. Well...you know how the idea comes together in your head but doesn't translate onto the paper so well??? Ya...that's what was happening. My mushrooms didn't look NEARLY as cute as Laura's did so I bagged the idea but kept the general layout and added my own touches.

But I do thank Laura for the great inspiration!!!

I hope that everyone is having a fabulously creative almost end of the week!!!
