Love your cake! the cuttled bg looks wonderful and love the little pearls frosting!

What inspires me? I commute to work on the subway so I see lots of people - and their clothes often inspire me (but I usually forget unless I do a quick sketch or it or write down colors! - I also get tons of catalogues (do I order too much?!?!?!) and I love the home/gifty ones - they often have inspiring pictures for sale or rugs or sets of dishes!

Gorgeous card, Holly. Love your interpretation of Jenn’s inspiration piece. Love all the white space to soften it up.

What inspires me??……the beach and nature mainly, but I also get a lot of inspiration from the SCS galleries…from people like YOU!

Wow! Beautiful card! I am inspired by colors in art work and abstract things generally. I love funky kind of stuff to look at. Like today’s cake is not the “norm.” I like those kinds of pics for inspiration. Your card is fantastic! I hope I like Kiwi as much as you do!!

OH MY Holly!!! This is unbelievably stunning!!! I couldn’t believe it when I saw this challenge — not at all my style and I still haven’t figured out what I’m going to do -but whatever it is, it won’t be this good!! I just totally love everything you do!!!

I’m not a green girl either, and as for inspiration, I have a few blogs I visit every day, I get ideas from there, and I love to try challenges - I’ve only been making cards for 2yrs, Fan Club member for about 6mths, I need as much inspiration as I can get!! I think the thing that’s helped the most is making cards for the church fundraiser, I always have to come up with something new - gets the grey matter working.

Love the cake and the trim of pearls on it!! You are going to use up all those half pearls in not time Great job on the inspiration piece!

You lucky girl to have two brains - just like my DD - I’m green with envy as I have a lot of the analytical side but not so much on the other side. What inspires me…well, you for one Love your layouts and perfectly balanced cards. I also get inspiration from nature - flowers in particular. They come in so many wonderful colours and combinations of colours. Also like looking at sales flyers - clothing colour combos and bed spread combos - the pros put them together so it must work together or people wouldn’t but them.
