Markus and I have a new game that we play. It’s called “magazines.” We love to play magazines. The game goes a little like this: I hold him in my lap and hold a magazine in my hands. He grabs, rips and crumples up the pages. Riveting stuff people. He loves it so bad. The game will go on for as long as I let it. Magazines is the awesomest. There is just one rule. We do not play magazines with momma’s free catalogs. You know? Those catalogs that show up in the mail for absolutely no reason, because you haven’t bought anything at that store in years…and there are some places you’ve never shopped at in your life. Well, I love those catalogs. They are the best. First, they are free and free is my favorite. Next, they are full of inspiration, cool color combinations, great home decor ideas. And did I mention they are free? We don’t play magazine with those treasures. We mostly play magazine with GQ and ESPN. Those are daddy’s magazines. He won’t miss em.
Free catalogs aren’t my only source of inspiration but instead of telling you, just watch…
I’m not sure there could be a better proof of how easy “inspiration to creation” really is. I literally pulled up the cupcake image while I was looking at the mural. Love that!
I’d love to hear about where you find your creative inspiration…and then head over HERE to enter today’s contest where the prize in an iPad mini! What?! What?! I told you that the prizes were major. Today’s contest will open at noon MST and end tomorrow, Friday, April 24 at noon MST.
Wow! This came out soooo cah-ute! My only whoa is not being able to Design On the Go! No mula for Ipad 🙁 …soon the universe will answer my whoa or constantly get annoyed by me. lol
I’ve got my fingers crossed that you win an iPad! And in other news (completely unrelated) do people love to say “Bye, Felicia” to you!?
Wowza, awesome creations, Amber!
thanks, Sharon!!
I get inspiration from everywhere.
There are many things around me that inspire me but to name a few, I find inspiration on pinterest, Domino Magazine and craft blogs. The tote is too cute!
I LOVE Domino Mag! Did you know that last year, Domino named Damask Love one of the Top 17 DIY blogs on the web! Woooohooo!
the camera loves you. let me know when you have your own show…. 🙂
HA! You are the best and so so kind. Let me tell you – two months after having a baby – the LAST thing I was prepared for was getting on camera! Thanks for all your encouragement. You are so awesome.
Super CUTE, Amber! Love the short videos! 😉
I’m kind of on the same lines of you…I find tons of inspiration from interior design books/magazines, clothing/fabrics, nature, etc. The list could go on and on, but I’ll spare you from all that! lol 😉 Thanks for sharing!
YAY! So glad you loved the videos. Looks like you and I have something in common when it comes to being inspired.
Hi. Oh my gosh, I too have a spinning head when I go to lay down thinking of what I’m going to make next. I have a 45 minute (sometimes longer if it’s snowing) drive to and from work, and during that drive my eyes are constantly looking for inspiration, whether it’s a new house being built and the colors they have chosen or someone repainting their house, I never know what I’ll see.
Love to read your blog!
I tell my husband that I need to take more naps so I can have more ideas! I don’t know if he’s buying it!
I am a casino player and I want to get good information about casino
This is an outstanding piece of work. I’m going to explain The 20 Most Commonly Used Casino Slang Terms to you. For additional information, go to https://www.phrasemix.com/blog2/the-20-most-commonly-used-casino-slang-terms. It’s more vital to know a gambling lingo than it is to play without it. One of the most common causes of recurrent losses is a lack of understanding of casino lingo.
I’ve always been inspired to run my own betting business, but I only reached the realization of the idea now when I found out about Digitain, which provides a wide range of gaming content, including the bet on games opportunity. Growing my online business, I try to provide only the best content to players and customers, so I’m glad I found this partnership to integrate content and conditions for players.
