Finding inspiration from different sources for layouts is a must to keep the creativity flowing. On the computer screen is a website called Webkinz that my kids love!! You buy a stuffed animal called a Webkinz which has a code on it that gives you access to their website for a year. I was looking at this screen the other day and noticed the way the layout draws your eye to the title. I also like how the little boxes at the bottom of the screen would be an ideal way to add some journaling to make it look interesting on your page. Sometimes I scrapbook just a picture with a title and date, but usually I love to journal because I want to remember the memories and be able to pass it on. I see magazine ad layouts too and get inspiration from them as well and there are even digital scrapbooking sites that have challenges based on the designs of ads. I think this is a really cool thing to be able to do to keep your work looking fresh and to not allow yourself to get too tangled up in - now how would this picture look best scrapped? Like I said, for me it is saving memories not just cutesy-pie art. So tell me - what types of things give you inspiration?

I love this blog. I've got friends who are really into scrapbooking. They have some beautiful books. I am very interesting in doing this myself someday. My daughter is 23 and married and I have wonderful pictures of her that need to be displayed. I'm hoping that your blog will inspire me.
