I was inspired by.. TOMO this week

I have been particulary inspired this week by Tomo, who lives in Japan. If you click on her name you will find her blog.

This card gave me instant inspiration:

(TOMO'S CARD)

I have this background stamp and it had been lying idle in the cupboard, but received new life just by inspiration. That is what I love about inspiration, it can bring stamps to life! I am so happy with all the blogs out there with inspiration, sometimes a card or image or even colors can just trigger what you need to birth an idea.



As you know, I love using images. This one is from The Graphics Fairy which is hosted by Karen. Thanks Tomo for your inspiration! It can be found here.

  15. As you know, this is a stamp I also own, and I haven't used it since last spring. Thanks, Jacqueline, for the nudge! I'm a fan of Tomo's work, too, and your card shows her inspiration, but with your signature touches. Love them both!
