Weekend color inspiration

I got these flowers this past week and have been inspired! I probably wouldn't have put these colors together on my own, but now I can't wait to in a project of my own. The photo isn't a perfect representation, there is a deep red, bright yellow, gold and accents of warm purple.

This is my weekend project. I'll show you when it's done! If you have been inspired too, please share!

Calendar Inspiration

Calendar ideas using the Date It Calendar Super Bundle and the new 2010 Calendar Brushes.

This calendar uses DB Chill Out to make the main top image, the 2010 Calendar brushes for the blank month template and the little months in the bottom right corner (Dec 2009 and Feb 2010), DoodleBats for Holidays and a birthday, and LD Demure for the name of the month and the numbers on the dates.
This calendar uses DB Calendar Doodles for the Pumpkin (colored in separately) and the Calendar Brushes for the month of October.

This calendar uses DB Circles - Be Mine for the circle stamp and the calendar brushes for the February month.

A scrappy quilt

Check out this fabulous baby quilt I received as a gift from my sister-in-law.

Is that not one of the cutest blankets you've ever seen? The fabrics are adorable and the quilt is a work of art.

I've noticed there are a lot of similarities in trends for quilt fabric and craft paper. It inspired me to try to blur the lines a little with a layout inspired by this quilt. It was really fun and I used the fonts from the new Jillustration Sweet Nothings bundle.

The title font, LDJ Mac n Cheese, is really neat! Have you ever seen an outline script font like that? Jill, the artist behind Jillustration, really takes the cake with that font. The lowercase letters are the connecting ones, the capital letters are capped on the left side so they can start the word, and you need to type the right bracket ] to cap off the end of the word. So to type the title, I had to type: No], Thanks]. But seriously, it's such a cool result!

Other credits: "I prefer my fingers" in LDJ Jillberish, journaling around the outside in Scrap Casual, Papers from Lettering Delights Denim and Blue Jeans Paper Pack.

Where do you find inspiration for your scrapbook pages and cards?
