HAPPY DAY!!!!!!! *edited*

YAY! it's mothers day... so all of you who are mommies... be blessed! And we are also celebrating Scrap in Style TV's launch Monday midnight. So, most of the girls on the design team is having some blog parties!

<span class=I am giving away a fabulous Making Memories product package. It will include the new SHOW and TELL book and a few other yummy thingies.

This is how this works: Tell me (by leaving a comment) a few things that inspire you! I love anais-anais purfume, rain, my girl's smiles, my husbands sweet words. I appreciate life tremendously at this stage in my life. I appreciate Proverbs that I am reading too... it's really settling a lot of issues for me.

After you have posted your comment, please visit the other fashionista's blogs (see my side bar) and see what's happening there- RAK wise. You might want to give a little time for everyone to do their posts... I am going out now, so I am early! Not all of them are doing it, but most are. Then MONDAY midnight, SIS tv is opening up! This is another sneak peek for a page I did this past week. Being Mother's day and all, I thought to post my family on here. Please check in here again as I might be adding some prizes and announcements - depending on how sweet you are in leaving some comments. And if you have never visited my blog: HELLO!!!! and please play along!!!!

Love and a kiss
Wilna

Wilna,
Great read!
What inspires me are cute smiles, funny giggles, emotion-stirring songs, stories of strength and compassion and oftentimes chocolate!
Anything that can strike up my emotions can inspire me to create!

Jen Harrison said...

I just did a layout on a little boy who inspires me to be a happier person, the journaling reads:When I am driving into base from the housing I pass the elementary school. There is some swings in the playground area. Every day around 5p.m. there is a autistic boy swinging there. He waves to all the cars and smiles at the people. I could be in the worst mood and right then, when I see him, my whole attitude changes. He makes me smile and so happy. I feel so carefree, nothing bothers me. He makes my day! I have never met him, but I hope he knows that he makes a difference in at least one person-just with a wave and smile.

You can see the layout on my blog.

What inspires me...powerful stories of faith. Rainy days. Beautiful scrapbook pages. My kids. Worship music.

Hey Wilna! SO excited for SIStv! Can't wait to see what's up! I am inspired by my new candy jar of gummy patch kids - so colorful! I'm inspired by old pictures - so many memories. And I'm inspired by my wonderful stamps - loving them right now. Thanks for the RAK Wilna!

Totally love your blog. I check it out just about every night. Things that inspire me: Reading the Word...and Christian authors like Max Lucado.

But mostly the hugs and smiles of my children...they inspire me to be a better mother and a better person.

Children in general inspire me, but my sister's children (I do not have my own...yet) have definitely inspired me the most...They surely inspired me in my decision to become a teacher, as does the idea that children are our future, and we must teach them well so that they can lead the way one day...Congrats on SIS!!!

I'm inspired by my son - he's only 6 and has already survived childhood cancer - he's an inspiration to my everyday living. I'm also very inspired by music - i love to look into the lyrics and see what the artist may have meant and what it means to me. I'm currently obsessed with Kenny Chesney. His Be As You Are album came out right when my son was diagnosed with cancer and it was my escape - it gave me somewhere else to be - it gave me hope for a brighter future when the present was really dim. That's what inspires me!

THANKS for offering up blog candy!
Inspiration comes in different forms every day....You inspire me, Ali Edwards inspire me, the robins in the back yard digging for worms inspire me, the way the tulips spring open in sunlight and then in the evening close - they inspire, my niece's faith thru thick & thin has inspired me to re-read the bible which has been sitting for a long time.

Well, a few things that inspire me are:

2. fabric - I love the texture and I love using it on my cards and layouts.

3. music - There is such great music out there that makes me want to create and dance.

4. words - I love reading other people's journaling and books with such touching sentiments. It makes me want to write.

5. product - There is some great product that I have to get in my hands just so I can use it. :) I love looking at it and seeing what others have done with it. But I definitely want to put out my take on it.

I also get inspiration from believe it or not magazines. Not scrapbooking magazines but any. The other day I was flipping through a Rachael Ray magazine and got an idea for a layout!

Music also inspires me. I love to have something on to get my creative juices flowing!! I also must mention, my sister Jen is one of my biggest inspirations. She is a great scrapper but also a great friend :)

I'm with the person who said music inspires! Listening to music I love makes me want to create, dance and sing! Also, watching old movies on DVD or TCM will find me scrapping for hours without realizing it! Best of luck with tmrw - see you there!

I am driven by forces beyond my control, giving my control to drive those forces..
I create because I can
I create because I am
I create for ability
I create for stability
I am inspired and inspiring, adapting and adaptable.
I am defined in my art, yet art does not define me.

What inspires me is looking at other peoples work. Also looking at stash helps. Sometimes just looking at catalouges will help.

Good luck with the site

My family and friends are what inspire me. Without them, I wouldn't be the person I am today.
