I checked the National Day Calendar for today and found that today is National Vision Board Day. I thought the Vision Board theme would make a cool inspiration for us today so I googled it but didn't really find a site that was tailored to just Vision Boards. While I was surfing for "Vision Board" I landed at Paper Source which is a pretty site with many pretty things. ThePaper Source has all things paper plus some fun gifts so I hope you will enjoy the site today!
If you don't care to browse the entire site or you are unable to connect to the site, I have included photos at the end of this post which you can use as inspiration for your project. Click on the images below to see them bigger and to get their links on SCS.
How to Play ~ View the attached images. You may be inspired to recreate the pieces ~ but that isn't necessary ... get your inspiration from the colors, layout, style or 'theme'. Just enjoy wherever your inspired creative journey takes you. Remember, if you are inspired by the creation of another artist, please do not use print-outs of the art in your creation or directly copy their work. Make the inspiration piece your own. Don't worry ~ no card is 'wrong' and there is no time limit for uploading your card for the challenge. There are no rules, so let your creative juices run wild ~ be *inspired* and go get stamping!
Don't forget about No Upload Sunday - Let's give the gallery moderators a day off and not upload on Sunday (unless, of course, you are a Fan Club member - yet another reason to spend a little money on your favorite site). Also, remember to link to your SCS gallery on this thread. Thank you for joining me on this inspiration journey.

Inspired by the Gold Fireworks on Coral Handmade Paper - I used a vintage style patriotic stamp set, adding some texture and richness with an embossed and inked fireworks background. Machine stitched my central blue panel for more of a folk art look. Here's I love America

Swoon.... early and then long day of stamping with friends... I just sat down to veg with my laptop while DH watches football...and then I check out today's inspiration..no way can I leave this one alone. I love to look at Paper Source papers! ...(gets up to go dig her way down to the stamp table).
When I saw this picture , I immediately thought of the Pick a Pennant stamp set that I won at an SU event that I have never used. Decided to stick with my Valentine making theme this week. Thanks for looking!
