Okay, so some of you have already seen this on my photography blog, but I thought I'd share it here too. It just makes me giggle.
I couldn't wait and already scrapped it last night...look for that page in June over at The Story Matters.

I am lovin these new Spring tags frpm ShabbyChicCrafts and how versatile they are! I keep finding myself grabbing for the date/place lace borders! My new fav!

I used them here on my everyday page and I love how these tags go so perfectly with the dear lizzy line! LOVE!

This months gcd studios' theme was to incorporate these fun little dolls...



I started searching for inspiration at one of my favorite spots...etsy.com! I found this perfect little image by kristenpowersink ... and complete with an owl! {So perfect since ella's room is decorated in owls.}



I used photoshop and printed them on the {Sunny Pinwheels paper from the Ava Collection} to create a custom paper for my layout....



So simple and fun...where do you find your inspiration?
