My inspiration came from myself though. Our Ms stef always tells me it's how we interpret what we see. Given this, I've tossed that concept of 'cheating' out of my vocabulary. I no longer cheat; I just see things differently. That's exactly what happened today:
I was so excited to receive the most wonderful of all papers from RobinRingTail, who just happens to create most of her own papers! In keeping, sort of, with today's colors, I opted to use this fabulous asian influenced paper that's been beautifully embossed in silver. Gorgeous paper, Glenda. Thanks ever so much. Plus, I added some Martha stewart black pearls from Peggy's RAK. Thanks peggy.
Thanks for looking everyone.

Hello Anne, how lovely is this card now. You have a way of making minimalist look warm and not to mention gorgeous. Glad you could use those pearls, they are a fine addition.
By the way, we are neighbor's today. I uploaded mine right after. TFS, your card is unique!
Hey there Anne - I just came back from my mailbox and DANG Woman, I almost fell over. Smiling, smiling! My photographer (he is a lot better than me!) isn't here right now but boy do I have a lot to show the world when he gets home - gonna show off tomorrow! Anyway, back to your card - GORGEOUS!!! Warm, elegant and visually satisfying. I think the Anne Ryan way of looking at things is just right.

Gosh, those black pearls are jsut gorgeous. I think I would have wanted to make them into something to wear for myself, but I've got to say they look great on your fabulous Asian-look card.
