You might say I have a slight obsession with Pinterest lately. I can't seem to stop pinning ideas for Christmas, scrapbooking, home decor, or recipes. Some might say it is a huge time waster, BUT if you are actually taking those ideas and using them, then it isn't such a waste, is it?
I made a couple layouts last week that were inspired by things I found on Pinterest and when I saw my friend, Kimberly, post about her Pinterest obsession too, I couldn't help but leave her a comment. She replied with a fun abstract piece she found and asked me if I wanted to join in and create something inspired by it. I am not one to turn down a fun scrappy challenge with friends, so I was in!
Here is the inspiration piece...
I was a little stumped by the piece but I think I did a good job making it me and I really like how the layout turned out.
I played along with some other super talented ladies. Make sure you go check out what Kimberly, Mandie, Sasha and Emily did with the inspiration piece too.
I'll be posting more inspiration and fun things from Pinterest this week so make sure you check back in. Ok, I'm off to see what they made, have a fabulous Monday!
Oh I LOVE this and how you turned it! Soooo AWESOME! I LOVE this layout! Every detail! xx
Thanks for playing with me on this too! I've totally enjoyed the fun we've been having getting to know each other more too! YOU are an AMAZING woman!

This is so great! LOVE your take on the challenge. I agree on the Pinterest as well- I pin everything I love in hopes I may be able to go back to it someday- so far it I haven't scrap jacked anything from it directly but the quotes and the techniques give me ideas to jump off from- that's a very good thing. ;)
