Be Inspired

April 20th, 2008

It’s time for another Dirty Dozen Alumni Gallery reunion and this month we have an Inpsiration Challenge.

This photo from Better Homes And Gardens 100 decorating ideas under $100 magazine is our inspiration piece.

Required Element:  Create a Journal

Restricted Element:  No markers of any kind – SU, Copic, etc.

Obviously it’s been a crazy busy week and I’m setting this post a couple of days in advance.  Can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with!  Although it may take me a day or so to have a chance to even look!

Here’s my Inspiration Journal – I decided to have some fun with punches – I just played around until I came up with some flowers I liked.  I added some of those tiny little rhinestones from the nail art pack I shared awhile back along with some liquid pearls.  I took this inpsiration piece a bit more literally than I normally do, but for some reason I was really drawn to the vertical lines of the curtains and the pop of the color from the bouquet.

I had a composition book with a chocolate brown spine, so that worked perfectly without needing to cover the spine with anything.  Please forgive me for not giving all the recipe details…it’s all I can do at this point to just get this post up at all.  *frazzle*   I’ll be back later today or tomorrow to share more from StampMania.  Thanks for stopping by.

    This is so cute, Jami! Love your creative flowers. I didn’t get a chance to play this month so it’s really fun to see what everyone has come up with. Love yours.

    What an uber-cool journal, Jami! It’s fun to look back & forth from photo to creation to follow the inspiration!

    Please come by to pick up your new Arte y Pico award when you get a chance! Thanks for being such an inspiration!
