Here is our first inspiration card from Barb:
Isn't Barb's coloring to die for?! I love those springy daisies and the distressed background is so bold! The vibrant colors are extremely happy and energetic! And the striped background is the perfect amount of pattern behind Barb's dimensional center panel.Here is my take. After seeing Barbs BOLD flowers with the distressed background I just had to create a BIG bold flower, too! And her distressing inspired me to bring out one of my new Hero Arts cling stamps-Aged Pring Frame (CG154).

Is that not cuteness overload!!?? To start with, Sarah's son is ADORABLE! And that little frog- so fun! I really love the bright bold colors and mix of patterns. The grid style is perfect for this layout. Sarah was able to fit so many fun pictures and her journaling on this page- what a great way to document this priceless story. Oh- and she even created the perfect matching card!! Dang, girl, you're GOOD!
Thanks everyone for stopping by this week and BIG thanks and BIG hugs to 
I love how Sarah has inked up this gorgeous die cut! The colors are blended to perfection and the mist of perfect pearls adds to its charm. The layered die cut background adds even more elegance, as does the dark card base. This card is the PERFECT example of simplicity and beauty!!
Thanks again for stopping by! See you tomorrow with our last day with Sarah!
Sarah is just so creative-- those fun flowers and sequins were from one of her daughter's tops! She has perfectly arranged them creating a visual triangle which is so pleasing to the eye. The polka dot background adds to the playful feeling of this card. And finally, the bright white strip of cardstrock immediately draws your attention to the sentiment!
Where do I begin??!! First of all, the red is striking against the warm golden background. Sarah has created the perfectly distressed backdrop to go with her perfectly colored flower. The text stamped diagonally on the background adds to the elegance of this card. Finally, the butterfly in the center of the flower brings this card to life with another layer of stamping and gorgeous color!
