What inspires YOU?

While drinking my morning coffee, I was watching the program "Hidden Potential" on HGTV (my most-watched channel). They were doing make-overs to an old house and totally changed the front facade. I looked at it and thought, "Mmmm....there's a great design for a card there", and promptly went into my craft room. I always check out Google Reader for the latest entries in the blogs I follow and up came Color Throwdown #56. Loved the colours and knew just what I wanted to do with these colours, and I was fortunate enough to have the SU cardstock, too. I didn't have an appropriate stamp for a house, so I went to The Quote Garden to find a suitable verse. So, now that you've got the background on how this card came to be....here it is.



Thanks for stopping by, please come back again.

Supplies:
Cardstock: Dusty Durango, Bermuda Bay, Soft Suede
Verse: Quote Garden
Embellies: SU Brads, Making Memories Brads, Primas
