The photo inspiration is the first attachment of all the yummy ice cream toppings! Interpret it how you like!! Tessaduck saw a pattern in the photo, you can check out her sample, I saw circles, you can check out mine too. I haven't had a chance to see what everyone else has created yet but enjoy the photo and let's see where the inspiration takes you!
HERE is a link to the gallery to get some ideas!!!
Yes, I saw patterns and squares. That's just how my brain works! Friends get short with me when I try to explain the patterns I see. Phone numbers. Bathroom tile floors. Seating arrangements.
In Misti's photo, I also saw calories. Guess who's making a habit of eating healthy?! (I refuse to admit that I'm dieting.)
Some folks see colors or theme for inspiration as well.

There is something wonky going on with the site tonight guys, sorry. Misti has gone out of her home in search of better internet connections.
for me the photo is the first one on the left at the bottom of her post. (it is a collection of bowls holding ice cream toppings, so one bowl has raspberries, one has M & M's etc. )
(and edits in the gallery are eating some of the info on mine when i edit so, it may be that I "see" the photo because, I have seen it in staging) I dunno.

I see smiles in odd places. The inside of my toaster openings, my razor, etc. LOL Smiles are what I collect!
When I saw the inspiration photo, the browns and reds instantly stuck out in my brain. I found this scrap of brown DSP and decided to try a masculine card.
Here is my card:
Here is my first ever card for the VSN challenges. I thought I would have more time to do these challenges today, but life keeps interferring. The cards I have finished so far are rather quick and simple.
I feel like I need to redo my layout but aside from that, this was so fun. I was thinking about our last trip to a local place that’s been here since the 40s.
