Welcome! At Inspired By, we believe creativity can spark from the simplest things—a cozy photo, a fun sketch, or a seasonal theme. Each week we share a fresh inspiration image and a coordinating sketch to get your ideas flowing. Whether you’re into cardmaking, scrapbooking, mixed media, or any type of project, you’re invited to interpret the challenge your way. There’s no right or wrong—just inspiration and creativity. We can’t wait to see what you create!

You’re the Berry Best with MarDi

My card for this week’s Inspired By challenge was inspired by the sketch, the bright pinks, and of course, berries. I used “You’re the Berry Best” stamp set from Colorado Craft Company, which I’ve had for a while but this is the first time I’ve played with it.

I tried watercolor at first and didn’t like the result so I almost threw this out. Before tossing it, I thought I’d try colored pencil over top, and then became too invested to bail on it. In the end, I’m satisfied with the result.

I really wanted to add some water droplets but ran out of time. I might go back in later and add them.

Do you have berry stamps or dies that are begging to be brought out and played with? Or, does the sketch or bright pinks inspire you? We would love to see what you come up with. ~MarDi
