All of these cards are lovely, but I particularly like how the rabbit stands proud of the top of the card, I must give that a go.
I am always totally inspired by Kim Hughes' ability to layer images - love her style!!

The colours in Anabelle's card are totally awesome, just love the right but subtle blue with the yellow... and this from someone who isn't fond of blue!!
Gorgeous cards. My two thoughts were - what a variety!, and I LOVE the torn note page card. thanks for the opportunity !
Wow all these cards are beautiful. What stands out the most for me is all the different styles the these ladies bring to their creations.
How can you not be inspired by these cards?!? They are all beautiful. If I get my inspiration from them, I cannot imagine where they must get there inspiration. Talk about talent!
Oh my! The creativity in all the cards inspires me. However, the color combinations alone make me want to find those colors and start stamping! Thank you for the inspiration this week and all the chances to win!
I love the simplicity of Julie Ebersole's card!
All of the cards are inspiring as we've come so far with our papercrafting options in this world! When I first started stamping 13 years ago, it was just paper and ink and my washable crayola markers...look at our options now!
I love Kimberly Crawford's card - the colouring in, the design, the colour scheme.....all beautiful!
I really like the Wishing you Luck card. It is adorable and I love the message!
Holy stamps, Batman! You guys are rockin' the giveaways in the Moxie Fab World! For sure the flowers are giving me some inspiration to start some spring stamping. Especially since I turned the furnace off cause it was warm during the day and then forgot to turn it back on at night. Froze my buns off last night. Only in Il...
Beautiful cards! I just lovey Kim Hughes...one of my all time favorite artists! Thanks for a chance to win!
All of these cards are gorgeous! I esp love Lisa Johnson's. I love the colors, layout and use of buttons.
I love that she made her own "patterned paper" with stamps.
Lately I'm drawn to the clean simple lines of cards like those featured on the Amuse site and the beautiful flower card posted by Julie - I've been trying my hand at using more white space lately! I also LOVE the bunny card with the stand up portion of the mama bunny - which reminds me of an Easter bunny card I was thinking I should make! Excuse me ... I've gotta go play!
All of the cards are gorgeous!! I am most inspired by all of the dimension of For You by Kimberly Crawford
I love all the cards, they are gorgeous but my favorite is Tanis Giesbrecht's card. The design and the colors are amazing!
Gorgeous cards! I am most inspired by their use of color and the way elements are layered and combined.
I love the way Lisa Johnson uses the PTI stamps to create her own, gorgeous background paper. I've been dying to try that, I just need the stamps!
I really like all the cards, but Lisa Johnson's strikes me the most, love the colors!!
I love the card: captured my fancy. The colors are delicious and I love the simplicity of the card but how it still looks well designed and executed. Plus, I have been looking for card designs to use up some buttons!
I love the simplicity of Julie Ebersol's card. It inspires me to let the stamps be the star of the show and not the paper. They are all just beautiful!
It's been a great week here. I love the simplicity of Julie's card. Lovely.
All gorgeous! I have to pick "You Are the Friend" by Julie Ebersole though because I LOVE LOVE LOVE that flower. It looks like the Basic Grey set I've been coveting.
The cards with stitching on them inspire me. I've been meaning to do this because it's been so long but I never pull the sewing machine out. Today IS the day! Thank you for the great inspiration.
They are all so amazing - and all inspire me in one way or another. Julie's clean and simple look were very striking to me. Then I read her post - and she made that gorgeous flower with a small little flower stamped many, many times. So artsy!
Love the cards!! I am inspired most by the colour combos. I am so ready for spring and these colours make me itch to get outside!!!!
oh those cards are ALL gorgeous! they make me want to get stampy!
What a great BANG!! I'm particularly inspired by the layouts and colors used in a project. And boy, are these cards inspirational!!!
What lovely cards! The Hi There card is inspiring for its use of layered stamping and use of texture.
I just love the Springlilke pastel colors used on the Easter cards-makes me want to start stamping right now!
I love the spring-like feel to all of these cards! I am still waiting for the snow to melt, so the color combos are so inspiring for me!!
oooooh wow! i love them all, but i think i'm about to go copy the colours and dimension and layering in the card by kimberly crawford...
The very first card in line, Hi there by Lisa Johnson, reminds me of how easily you can create interesting silhouettes on cards by using different shaped edges and layering them. I love it.
What inspires me about the cards featured is the difference in styles. Some are stamped with one ink and very simple yet elegant, others are whimisical and fun and colored in, they offer backgrounds, sentiments, scenes, patterns, and more which gives lots of ideas. Thanks for sharing these beauties!
The Hi There card by Lisa Johnson is just adorable. I love this stamp set from Papertrey. So much you can do.
You showcased my faves!!! I love how Kim layers, stamps right onto the patterned paper, and angles objects! That's inspiration for a gal who always tends to place something on the card crooked:D!!
Thanks for a great week, Cath!!!
Creativity! That's what inspires me...I would never think to do some things the way I've seen! I need all the help I can get!!
All the cards are just beautiful. My favorite of this group is Julie Ebersole. I just love that simple elegant look.
Janet
I love Annabelle O'Malley's card. So elegant! Love that emellishment!
Michelle Boyer's card is my favorite among each of these beautiful creations. I'm not sure, but it looks as if she made one piece of her dp and I like the black and white colors, too.
These cards are just beautiful. Each and everyone inspire me in a different way. I am just a hopeless card maker and still in awe by the beauty of these cards everytime I look at them.
Wow great inspiration! I loved Laura O'Donnell's card, ingenious. Loved how she cut around the tall bunny then folded over the card but continued the card design in the back. Gottta look at my stamps and see what I can come up. Have a great weekend :)
Annabelle's 'Congratulations' card has a wonderful, fresh, new color combo that inspires me to try out new ones! Thanks, Cath.
Wow! Beautiful cards! I love the "captured my fancy" card by Tanis Giesbrecht. I love its colors and how the top of the card is 'empty'. Hey! It has just given me an idea for a card I want to try! :) Hope to try is soon! :)
Thanks, Tanis, for the inspiration and thanks MFW for the chance to win such a prize!
Efrat K.
I love the simplicity and genuinity (is there such a word?? :P) of the messages the cards convey. :)
I am always amazed at stampers fabulous coloring of images, and blending, it always catches my eye, wish I had an inkling of that ability!
thanks for the inspiration stampers, and MFW!!
"Hope" by Kim is inspiring me to use my new border punch.
These cards are beautiful this just inspires me to cut out my images and make them 3d so they really stand out from my cards
Gorgeous cards...all of them...what I think inspires me is all the soft spring colors...soooo pretty!!
Hooray is certainly right! You guys are awesome!!! Thanks for the fun opportunity to have a chance at so much wonderful stuff! I draw inspiration from each and every one of these amazing cards. When people ask me, "How do you come up with your ideas?" I always tell them that looking through magazines and idea books fuels my creativity. Tiny parts of each sample I see is stored in my brain (and heart.) And even though I may not actually CASE a particular card, every element of my card HAD to be inspired by some other fantastic paper crafter (or God Himself.)
The cards are beautiful. They all make me excited for spring. I love the one by Lisa Johnson.
I absolutely love Julie Ebersole's card! I have a tendency to think that cards have to have tons of layers, and embellishments and...stuff. This card is beautiful, and so simple it is stunning!
All of these cards are so beautiful! I am always inspired by Julie Ebersole. She has such a simple, classic...and fun...look to her cards. Using that tiny little flower to create the larger flower is genious!
All the cards are, indeed, fabulous. I'm especially inspired by the color combinations the designers used.
Several of these cards have amazing layers of different papers. I always feel challenged to add different patterns and textures and love to gain inspiration from others on how to accomplish this!
I love the Hi There card. I can't wait to get my hands on this Paper Trey set.
I love the simplicity of the Julie Ebersole card. The blue flower against the white background looks so spingy!
Every card is beautiful. The first card by Lisa Johnson using a stamp for the background is very inspiring to me. I can see so many uses for that stampset.
Mary M.
These are GORGEOUS!! I love Kim Crawford's card with the individually trimmed and mounted flowers - and those butterflies are a perfect finishing touch
You're like Emeril, but instead of BAM, you're going out with a BANG! You're too funny Cath!
WOW, Moxie Fab cards! I love Kim Hughes, and I admire her work VERY much (interview her for the Moxie Fab blog . . . please!), and I love how her cards are so fun and the cute factor is always off the charts!
I'm not familiar with Tanis Giesbrecht, but WOW, her card is wonderful! I love how she built a scene, and left a bunch of negative open space on her card! CUTE!
This has been a great week on the blog! Thanks for all of the amazing posts! I've enjoyed looking at EVERYTHING!!
I love the simplicity of Julie's friend card. I would love to receive a card like that in the mail and it reminds me that simple can be very effective.
Thanks for a great week!
all the cards are so wonderful. I have to say I love most everything from Betsy Veldman though-her use of color just makes me happy. Everything she creates is just bright and cheerful.
We must surf the same blogs! But I hadn't seen the card by Laura O'Donnell, Easter Greetings. What a great idea...love it, love it, love it! Thanks for the inspiring week and another chance to win!
Amazing cards. I'm inspired my the colors, layouts, and details that are on each one of them. Thanks
"Hi There" by Lisa Johnson is adorable. I love all the layers and the inked edges. Excellent use of stamping as well as other techniques. Thanks for all the fun this week!
I just love all the cards. How can one NOT be inspired. Their use of papers, stamps, and embellies has me in awe.
I LOVE Julie's card, so simple but SO elegant. Sometimes simple just gets lost with all these fabulous supplies that we have to use. Thanks for the chance to win.
I love how simple the cards here look - but you know they took so much time! They are beautiful!
Those cards are fantastic. What inspires me most about them is the color. I have a hard time putting colors together so when I see a color pallete I like I imedietely jot it down for future cards and layout.
Thanks so much for the chance to win.
OH!!!!!! wow, definately the spring colours inspire me, my mojo has been on a hiatus the last few days so this will give a swift kick in the pants!!
What wonderful inspiration that you found in the blogosphere! I am really inspired by Michele's card as she didn't do a whole lot of layering, but created a lot of interest with the two panels of dp and stitching behind her floral image. I find myself inspired by Betsy's ribbon. It's not the traditional tied around the card in a nice little bow! Thanks for the wonderful eye candy and the chance to win!
I love Julie Ebersole's clean and simple and beautiful card. We need more clean and simple cards that we can pop in the mail. I don't want to worry about my card getting torn in the mail because of a button or bow or some other bulky embellishment.
The color combinations are beautiful. I'm always inspired by those Papertrey girls and the others are all incredible too.
The "You've Captured My Fancy" card really inspired me. It made me think about using stamps and colors to tell a story or create a mood.
I am bookmarking this post so I can refere back whwen looking for a card idea. Oh heck I think I just go whip a few up right now, and I ususally dont make a lot of cards!!
Stunning, from the simple clean look, to fun and ornate. Thanks for sharing!
I love the For You Card...the butterflies, the flowers, the dimension...beautiful!
Beautiful cards, wonderful giveaways! What a great week this has been. Thanks for all the chances to win!
These cards are goregous I love the spring colors and all the different designs, So much eye candy! Thanks for the chance to win!
How Rebecca tapered the ribbon into her buttons inspires me. I love the look and have never seen anyone do that before. Keepin my fingers crossed to hit the jackpot here. I have not been able to get my hands on Stamp it! yet.
This has been a bang up week! I am loving all the looks with Kraft paper. It is a new neutral medium to me and I am loving it.
It's a good life!
Terri E.
Beautiful cards.I had fun time this week during Stamp it week. Thanks for a chance to win some more fab prizes.
Wow, these are awesome! I have to say the soft almost country feel Kisa Johnson was able to achieve with the bold PTI tuplip images and the handmade background... inspire me to come out of my box! :)
How can anyone not be inspired by such creativity and beauty! I love what each of these designers bring to their creations. Some of them I am familiar with and some are new to me! Thanks for giving me some new blogs to check out!
The cards are all so lovely. I like the colors schemes, I'll have to try some colors which I would never thought to put together, like the Betsy's and Anabelle's.
I love Lisa Johnson's card as I just got the PTI Guidelines 2 set and can use the inspiration. They're all beautiful cards though!
I think I get the most inspiration from those that are colored with COPICs. I love to see the beautiful shading. Thank you so much for making this a fun and inspirational week!
Gorgeousness!!
They are all wonderful!
But I do have to say, Laura O'Donnell's is my favorite... I just love her short card, and that adorable bunny family and her wonderful coloring job! It is a perfect example of a 'you don't need to go overboard' to make a beautiful card... And, the image reminds me of the Beatrix Potter stories.... sweetness!
WOW! Too may FAVES to pick just one! =) Love the line up you have here. Thanks for a chance to win such a great bundle! =)
What inspires me most about these is not a specific card. It is the fact that they are all so very different yet so very beautiful. It is inspiring to know that you can make a fabulous card in a clean and simple way or glitzed up with all of the extras and all of the different techniques. Gotta love this hobby!
Wow wow wow! What a wonderful selection of cards - they're so pretty! I love the innovative design of the bunny card from Laura. Thanks so much for the chance to win!
Wow, these are all fresh, fun, interesting, use cool elements, have fun folds....what else can I say but that they all ROCK! I could not pick out one favorite inspiration if I HAD to! But I do have to say I love the colors in the first one--love Kraft! Thanks for the chance to win!
LeAnne
I love the handmade look to Tanis's card! I love the paper piecing and the wonderful colors!! The rest are great too!
wow, Julie Ebersole's card is so simple, but so elegant and amazing! I think its really hard to accomplish simple, but so striking at the same time!
I am often inspired by color. All of these cards are inspiring to me! I can't pick just one.
Chris
I'm inspired by Kim Hughes' combination of stamps for a background. Looks fresh and fun! I have to give that a try!
I love Lisa Johnson's Hi There card. Stamping backgrounds is something I love. All the cards are great inspiration pieces!
These cards are inspiration overload! I appears I may not get much house work done this weekend! GREAT cards!
can i just saw i love ALL the cards?? such great inspiration! i'm a big fan of lisa johnson :)
These are all so great. I really like Wishing You Luck by Rebecca Oehlers! I love the bright colors and graphic images.
Such GORGEOUS samples. I think what inspires me is the colors -- I tend to go safe and I love how bright and colorful and fun these cards are!
I love the You Are the Friend by Julie Ebersole card. It is so pretty and so simple.
Thank you.
Wow! These are all gorgeous! I love the way Kim Hughes added layers without adding bulk by stamping several images on top of one another. I also love Laura O'Donnell's little pop up surprise!
The cards are all awesome! I really like the tulip cards ... time to make spring cards!
Oh what a fun surprise to wake up to today! I think I have all of these girls on my blog roll (so of course, I'm a big fan!) :) Congrats to all of you for being featured!!! I LOVE each and every one of these cards! And... the girls behind them are fabulous people!
Everything so beautiful!!
They are all fabulous, but I like the whimsy of the "captured my fancy" card.
These cards are gorgeous! What inspires me the most is that I look and them, and even though they are stunning, I can make them. Or a reasonable likeness or them. Maybe not quite as beautiful, but the people I give them to won't see the original. Thanks for sharing them with us! Cathy
All these cards are so beautiful, I was inspired by the use of buttons on alot of the cards. Makes me want to use buttons more often on my cards!
Man, that "Congratulations" card is amazing! I love the colors used! I'm on the look out for color combinations I really like for when I get to put together my Baby Shower invites.
Great job to all!
They are all beautiful cards, but I love Captured My Fancy by Tanis Giesbrecht. I love the stiching and 3-d look by cutting out the images.
I love the earthy look of "hi there" and "i'm here for you." thanks so much for the chance to win such great stuff!!
All of the cards are beautiful and inspiring in their own way. I think the one I'm most inspired by today is the Congratulations card by Anabelle O'Malley. I am such a pink girl, and I'm trying to step out of my comfort zone. I'd love to make a project with the soft yellow, teal and white after seeing the color combo. Thanks for the inspiration and the chance to win!
I love Annabelle Omalleys card.. Im not shabby chic, but hers inspires me to give it a try.. how gorgeous is that card?
I just love that cute bunny card....
The cards are great. I am inspired to get out my buttons and some black cardstock! so many of the cards used buttons and I have tons and don't think to use them often enough. The pretty light colors on the card really pop when she put it on the black card. Love it. Thanks for so many great ideas and the chance to WIN!!
The Guidelines Two backgrounds on "Hi There" are simply gorgeous, but I also love the simplicity and elegance of the stamped image on "For You". The latter is more my style but I want to be able to do the first one much better than I do right now! Thanks for the beautiful "lessons"!
I am inspired by the colors used in Lisa Johnson's card. They are beautiful together. I also love how here stamping created the pattern on the paper. : )
This is my favorite one Congratulations by Anabelle O'Malley... love the colors! So perfect for the first day of SPRING!
Awesome! I think I'm most inspired by how different they all are.
Thanks for a great week of inspiration! Good luck to all entrants!
I am blown away by "you are the friend, because it is stunning and sooooo simple. I have yet to master tha art.
I love the simplicity of some of these cards. Very nice!!
WOW, there is so much about these cards that are inspiring but I would have to say i love that they are all simple in there many focus. Sometimes the main images get lost under all the embellies. These are fab!!!
I love the 'you are the friend' card...what a great example of simple is beautiful.
Kelly
Every one is So beautiful and wonderfully executed. It inspires me to kick it up a notch in my own crafting. To be better at my layouts and try for more crisp design ideas. I love these designers!!!
I'm planning on making cards this weekend and will be lifting the big round stamped circle with a cluster of sweet buttons.
Thanks for the inspiration :)
These cards speak SPRING which is the most inspiring time of the year. A great time to clean up the craft pile and get some new projects going!!
They are all beautiful, but I especially love Julie's- Clean and simple, just one layer- and I think today, it really appeals to me to try to be the friend everyone wishes they had. So it is therefore the perfect sentiment too!
Thanks for this.
Tracy
Wow, where do these people find the time to make such beautifully detailed cards?! My favorite has to be Easter Wishes by Betsy Veldman, the stiching and the buttons are so cute. The colors are bright and springy too. Way to go Becky!
Jennifer - Calgary AB
The cards are gorgeous. People who can make a well done card inspire me! Thanks for the chance at a win
All of these cards are inspiring in their own way, but I am especially inspired by how Julie Ebersole is able to stamp on a plain white card and make it look so pretty!
definitely the palettes in each one, they work color brilliantly! Happy Spring!
Each one is very special they all imspire me to get moving and grab a stamp and ink and get to stamping.. What is the love put in each card.. So today I will put love into my creation :)
TGIF... HERE IS TO INKY LOVIN FINGERS!
ALL these cards are so inspiring! I love Julie's CAS style and such a pretty flower stamp. Tanis' card is super cute and Annabelle O'Malley always wows me with her colors and pretty embellishments.
I just love Becky O's card, her creations always inspire!
These cards are all beautiful! My fav is the Bunny card.
I love how this card was colored. So pretty and also the 3D effect with the larger bunny cut out.
Well, I love all of the cards; but if I had to pick one: right now I am really loving 'clean and simple' cards, so I would have to say I love the card Julie Ebersole made.
They are all beautiful. But, what I find most inspiring about these ladies (and other designers) is their willingness to share their ideas and creations with all of us.They really keep me motivated. Thanks. :)
I love love love Anabelle's soft damask look with the resin on it. Gorgeous!
I love the stamping techniques used on these cards. It makes me want to go upstairs to my little craft desk and play around! I think my favorite is "For You" by Kimberly Crawford. What a beautiful card!
Love these cards! I especially like Lisa Johnson's card - I love how she used 2 colours to create the elegant background.
I love Lisa's Hi There card, the feel is kind of vintage but the buttons bring it right up to date and make it fun!
All the spring images inspire me to stamp with bright colours and flowers!! And it's the first day of spring!! (although you can't really tell here in B.C. where there is snow in my front yard still LOL).
These cards are amazing!! I am just inspired about all of the talent out there!
All the cards are simply fantastic, but I would say Annabelle O'Malley's really inspires me with its old world charm and elegance. I have a weakness for a card the evokes a sense of a by-gone era while still being modern.
I am so in awe of Julie Ebersole's blue hydrangea card! It is so "simple," but it is stunning! And then when I read that she shaped the large flower herself, out of a tiny single flower stamp, I was really in awe! The white gel pen is the perfect extra touch also.
I love Lisa's style and the colors and the buttons...all the cards are beautiful!
The Michele Boyer card is absolutely beautiful. All the colors & details work together so well. I love it!
You Are the Friend by Julie Ebersole inspires me today! It's so simple and absolutely beautiful. Any friend would love that card. Thanks for the chance to win. steph
Oh, wow! Julie Ebersole's card is EXCELLENT! Sometimes, as a stamper, I forget that simplicity can speak volumes in a design. What a great idea for a huge volume of cards for Christmas or other holiday! I also loved the soothing colors and elegance of Anabelle O'Malley's card. Gorgeous!
Kim's 'Hope' card is so inspiring to me. I love how she's stamped on top of another stamp. And added jewels to her butterfly and finished it off with a simple piece of tied jute.
I have been leaning towards the clean and simple style lately so I find Julie Ebersole's card fresh and inspiring. Of course I love all of them, but that one would be quick and easy to reproduce--a set of that style of card would make a fast and lovely gift.
I really love Julie E's card.. it is a great reminder that not all cards need to be layered and embellished to be completely beautiful!!
WOW! I am totally inspired by all this Spring/Easter goodness. But that white, vintage doorknocker thingy on the last card (annabelle) is making me think I should go through my old stuff and see what I can find to put on a card! I love what she did...
All of these cards are great and show a wide variety of styles. My favorite would have to be Julie Ebersole's for it's simplicity and great message. Love it!
They are all so beautiful. I love the Easter greetings, that baby bunny is too cute.
I soooooooo love the colour combos on each card...perectly compliment each other!
I love how Lisa Johnson's card uses a variety of background papers she created. I want to try doing several backgrounds myself.
Thank you for the chance to win!
wow!! What inspires me? color, design...adorable stamps....wow!! I love the simplicity and sincerity of Julie E's card.....
These card definitely inspire me to make some 'spring' type cards. Start using my brighter papers and buttons! Love buttons!
Kimberly Crawford's card is so stunning. The way she uses color really inspires me to learn marker techniques. Love this card
I am really drawn to the "Captured My Fancy" card by Tanis Giesbrecht. I really like how she has the "y" dangling over the paper. Very well thought out card that doesn't look like everything else out there!
I love Julie's clean and simple style. I love that the flower just pops out in all its glory.
Jeanette
Beautiful cards.
I particularly love the card by Julie Ebersole. The flower is so beautiful, and the simplicity of the card allows the beauty of the image and the words to really shine.
Wow! I just love all these cards. Lisa Johnson's stands out because I have this stamp set and the versatility that this set offers is amazing. Love the buttons, wonderful colors.
I am really inspired by Kim Hughes card. Her new stamp sets are a bold step forward from her adorable creations. I think it serves as a good reminder that once you find your style it's still okay to get out there and expirement and try new things. Styles do evolve, just like you.
I am particularly inspired by the Hope card by Kim Hughes. I am really drawn to the images on top of the text. Gorgeous!
All the cards are beautiful, especially the rabbit card, love the colors used!
with all the craziness going on in the world I find inspiration and comfort from the art that these wonderful ladies have shared with us it inspires me to stop take a breath and enjoy recreating these designs with my own twist, thanks for letting the world slow down long enough for me to enjoy!
I love the little hedgehog card, too cute and great colors!
the most inspiring thing to me is how julie ebersole can make a 1 layer card that is so simple, elegant and happy. i want to make cards like that without having to always use all the extras.
beautiful cards - feeling inspired to sit down and whip out a few myself!
all of these cards are fantastic! I think what inspires me most are the clean, crisp, stamped images! my stamping never looks that good!
I just love the card with the bunnies....I have 2 little girls and that card reminds me of us taking a walk. Great card!
the sentiments and details are fantastic on these cards
What grabs me about cards first is the colors. I love great color combinations and I think the right combo can make or break the card. These are wonderful colors and the cards are gorgeous!
I love Tanis' card because it is fun and kind of corky looking! The colors are awesome. These are all AMAZING cards!! :) Thanks for the chance!
I love all the cards! But the Congratulations by Annabelle O'Malley is my favorite! The colors used and the elegance of it is just fabulous!!
The color choices and the sentiments on the cards are what has been really inspiring for me!! I've totally loved this week!!
Julie Ebersole's card reminds me how effective and beautiful a simple card can be. Cards don't have to be adorned with layers of paper and embellishments to be striking and gorgeous. Thanks Julie, simplicity at it's best.
All the cards are great. I am inspired most by the cards that have a lot of little, unusual touches - the stacked layers on Lisa's card, the fancy cut ends on the ribbons on the Easter card, etc.
I really love the damask on the last card and the metal embellishment. The color combo is really great too.
p.s. I also love the new blog banner, Happy Spring!
wow! I couldn't pick one! I am inspired by every one of them--the details, stitching, ribbon accents, colors, quotes, the simplicity or elaborateness of them. They are all uplifting and beautiful! Thanks for posting so many lovely cards!
I love the cut whimsey of Easter Greetings- the cut out is what caught my eye!
I love them all! I'm really drawn to Lisa Johnson's card- the background paper she made is dee-lish! I love the colors & textures she's put together- as always! Inspires me to make my own background paper!
They are all inspiring in one way or another, but I especially like Lisa's card using the stamps to make her own DP. Very pretty.
I like "hi there" by Lisa b/c it looks so adaptable to different color schemes & themes.
Beautiful, creative cards! I was especially inspired by Laura's Easter Greeting and the cut out mom rabbit! Clever! Also, Anabelle's Congratulations card is lovely, the color combination is just so pleasing to the eye. Thank you for all the inspiration you find and share and for the great prizes! BANG!
The colors and flowers speak so strongly of the hope of Spring. And, those bunnies are just stinkin' cute!
The cards are all wonderful and spark inspiration to try different styles.
Julie is a master of the clean style, which is so much harder than it looks. (at least for me).
Thanks for a fun week!
They are all beautiful and give different types of inspiration. I have to say that I am always impressed with how fantastic Julie Ebersole's single layer cards are.
These cards are all so beautiful! I think it's the beauty in each of them that inspires me most! Thanks for the chance to win!
