I, like everyone else on the planet, have become a Pinterest addict. It is wonderful! It has quickly become the fourth regular tab open in my Firefox window (the others being Two Peas, Facebook, and Google Reader).
I have a board called Color Combos. It's a combination of color combos and inspiration for cards and/or decorating.
I pinned this photo, which apparently originated at Martha Stewart Weddings:
Which turned into this card:
I cut the patterned paper into a tie shape, put that on a white card base. I folded the kraft paper like a lapel and used a Making Memories pin to attach a Prima flower. I used the Linen and Canvas impression plate on the kraft cardstock to look like fabric. The sentiment is on a piece of white cardstock, like it's coming out of the pocket.
I also made a Smokey Shadow version, with Ocean Tides accents:

I really appreciate the fact that you've created your own blog and have actually posted your thoughts. I love your work and feel I can relate to what you've done. Most people can't even imagine having such talent. I hope that you know how lucky you are. :) Good luck to you in all your objectives. :)
