Scrapbook Circle is celebrating it's 4th year in business. So we wanted to do a special blog hop to celebrate.
So, welcome to my blog! If you have come from Jill's blog you are on the right track! If your not sure the order, scroll down and you can see where you are to go.
I wanted to share with you a layout I did using the *just released* May kit
I'm usually inspired by layouts done by others. But I was watching a movie and they happened to have bead garland as a decoration. Ya know, it hangs from the door frame and you walk through it? I had just cleaned my kids rooms and found these sequins that matched perfectly. It seemed to match the age of the picture--taken in the 70's when macrame was HUGE! :) --wonder if that will come back too? ANYWAY, my layout came together!
Alright here comes the RAK part. I know you have been patiently waiting... Answer my question and your name will be put in a drawing. (it's good I promise--it's got GLITZ) The winner will be announced on Wednesday.
Where does your inspiration come from?
In case you started with me and aren't sure where to start here is the list of blogs you need to hop to:

My inspiration comes from great LO's like yours. I look at books, magazines and blogs. I also am a member of a couple of groups that share their work.
I love how you've done your sequins, what a great idea. My inspiration tends to come from other scrapbookers - I love having a good blog hop and bookmarking LOs that I love. fmatth4731@aol.com
yeah, seriously LOVE the sequins, and what a fabby vintage-esque page!
i'm inspired by just about anything - some funky ad on tv, a bold pattern i see on a piece of furniture, colors and patterns on clothing and bags, whatever... sometimes it's just a matter of looking outside and seeing some awesome swirly colors in the sky or the clouds. EVERYTHING inspires me! it's just a matter of finding uninterrupted crafty time, and sitting down and getting to it! :) (so, ultimately, there's loads of inspiration out there, but i just hope like crazy that when i'm able to play, i can muster up some of those ideas!)
LOVE your page, and such a fabby blog! (new follower here!)

My inspiration started with the loss of a dear friend years ago. Now my insiration is my kids and documenting life for them to have.
I love that you got inspiration from a movie and made it come to life in your LO with the sequins! Beautiful Lo!!
My inspiration comes from the scrappy products that I can't help but buy! I love the product lines out there and when I see something I get an idea and jot it down in my journal! I love to surf the net for great Lo's like yours and get ideas!
I love this LO! That sequin work is so gorgeous!!
I take insiration from everything! Other's work, mag ads, even patterns in dishes LOL.
Amazing layout Diana! I just love the added rhinestones! Great idea! You don't have to enter me in the RAK, I just wanted to leave you some scrappy luv! :)

My inspiration comes from visiting many blogs, magazines, and You Tube.
Love your layout! My inspiration comes from blogs and kits.
Oh Gosh that strip of sequins-I soo soo love that! Okay to answer your question well honestly my inspriration comes from all the glorious creations I find online. I tend to see something and then my mind leads me elsewhere-needless to say its an adventure and I dont even have to leave the house-LOL!
That sequin garland is amazing!! Love that idea so much...I obvisouly get inspo from others' blogs and flickr, and books and life....
Love, Jess
Wonderful layout. Don't you love it when they just come together on their own! I'm inspired by sketches, web site gallerys and magazines.
I love the sequins and the Crate paper. My inspiration comes from my grandkids, kids and blogs that I follow.
And now I'm on the hunt for sequins!!... (as if I didn't have enough ribbon already!) Thanks for introducing a new way to use an embellishment.
Love what you did with those sequins! I get my inspiration from everything around! Either it be a magazine, a big advertisement sign, or even something crazy my kids have said.
I think my biggest inspirations are other scrappers and color! Sometimes I'll see a book or candy bar wrapper and think what a good LO that would make! :)
Love the sequins!!! My inspiration primarily comes from my children..the funny, quirky, silly things they do and say each day keeps me in stitiches and provides a ton of inspiration. I always have a notebook with me to jot down their antics and ideas for layouts! And I also get tons of inspiration from blog hopping and sketch challenge sites!!! Thanks for adding to my inspo. today!
what a great layout!! My inspiration comes from life, scrappy blogs & magazines.
Ooh love the vintage look you got on your LO! My inspiration usually comes from my daily surroundings but most of the time is from the photo I'm about to scrap. I love to connect the picture with elements that evoke the emotion of the pic. Sounds cheesy but it makes me scrap more! Thanks for the chance to win!
nice work.
Love the page, girl! My inspo comes from all of the wonderful ladies out there that make this craft so much fun!
Love this layout! I can't imagine sewing all those sequins down though...but it inspires me to maybe try it with small buttons. I get my inspiration from numerous sources. Hoppin' on...
This lo is so adorable...my dd is a smiler also. My inspiration comes from my dd, dh, my mom, my mil, blogs, magazines. I started scrapping my dd when my mil got me into the cricut. I just love that little machine in a big way! Thanks for the hop! My blog is http://scrappinlilscreativeside.blogspot.com/ ...come take a look if you like.
Love your sequins, they turned out really cute. I, too, am inspired by others. I love to look at layouts online, in magazines, and in my scrapbook buddies albums. Other times, I just go off a sketch. I love to ceate a page off a sketch and than look at what others have come up with. It's so fun to see the many different ideas all from one sketch.
What a fabulous layout! I get inspiration lots of different ways: I'm an avid blog surfer, magazine reader, magazine ads, nature, etc.
My inspiration come from my kids and blogs like the ones I have just hopped from!! LOL :) That LO is fab!!!
Thx for a chance to win!
First I wanted to say Love Wonder Woman and the sequin! Inspiration comes from the picture. What I feel about the picture usually comes out in the lo.
My inspiration comes from sketch websites, like Sketchy Thursday and of course from all you designers at Scrapbook Circle...just love ya'll! thanks for all you do!
