Monday's One Stop, Blog Hop!

Hello Stamping Friends,

Today's the day for our hop around the internet to find delightful creations and inspiration

using gorgeous, coordinating Stampin' Up! products!  

I absolutely love it when I see something that a fellow SU fan has created and shared with the world, don't you?

So, let's move on to my favorite project picks for this week.  I hope it spurs you on to create in your craft space too!

As always, if you do not already have a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator that you are working with, I'd love to help you and become your demonstrator.  ;-)

Blessings and Happy Stampin',

Inspiration....It's Everywhere!

Just as the title says, inspiration really is all around us!  Today's card lives up to the name of this blog, too.  It was quick and easy because it was a one layer card, one large background stamp, two ink pad and one marker.   I was very happy because when I showed my photo inspiration and my card to my husband, he immediately got it!  :)  To achieve this effect, I simply inked my background stamp with the crumb cake pad and the accented areas with the basic gray marker.  (Be sure to re-moistened your image before stamping when using this technique.)

Hope you find your inspiration this week and create something beautiful.
