Inspired

After several days of wanting to create something and being totally uninspired I finally got my inspiration back thanks to Ali Edwards(www.aliedwards.typepad.com) and another blog I linked from Ali's site called LollyChops(www.lollychops.com). There was a cute little 3D art thing done with different size butterfly punches. I wanted to try it but don't have any butterfly punches, though I did briefly think about braving the snow to go find some. But living in the middle of nowhere who knows how far I would have had to go so I decided it was better to stay home and use different size heart punches. The different size punches made me think sprinkled with love which made me think cupcakes. I don't know why but I think it works! So here is my take on the idea:

The hearts were punched out of a magazine picture of cherry blossoms and the rest is just cardstock. These pictures don't really do it justice but I really like the way it came out and am looking forward to making more.

OMG!!! Cyndi, this is soooooo cute! I absolutely love it! I will have to check out those sites.

And I'm working on getting a new blog together a la Signs of Life...I'm not quite as good as you at getting pix taken every day (maybe getting my new camera in two weeks will help!) but I'll be sure to send you a link once I get it all set up:)
