Do you know Kara's Friday Inspiration File on Pinterest? I've been following it for a long time now. Every week Kara finds some of the very best cards to be found out in blogland and pins them for us on Friday. Instant inspiration! If you don't follow this board, you're missing out. ;-)
Anyway, Kara is celebrating the 200th Friday Inspiration File with a little challenge. Because I really appreciate the inspiration every week, and I really like Kara, I just had to join in the fun! The challenge is to find a past pin and use it as inspiration for our own card. I found about 100 pins, and made cards using two of them as inspiration.
My first card is inspired by Marybeth from week 180. I loved this card when Marybeth first posted it, and I still love it.
My second card is inspired by Laura from week 184. When I first saw this card, I fell in love with it. All of those tiny stamps making such a pretty design! I've been itching to CASE it ever since and this is my chance!
My blog is getting quite a bit of love this week. Don't worry, I'm back to work and my old routine next week, so it will be back to regular (slow) programming. ;-)
Thanks for coming to visit me!

Two absolutely gorgeous cards. Way to let the stamping shine Kara.
Both cards are gorgeous one layer cards.
Both are gorgeous cards ,Michelle! Makes me happy to know you were inspired by one of my cards. Thank you!
Both are beautiful!
I love the originals and your CASEs are beautiful!
Gorgeous cards, Michelle!
This is so pretty! I loved this challenge - I am glad I found it!
Michelle...both cards are just so beautiful. I love them both but your second card with all the sequins and bling, so so sweet.
Kara's board is filled with such wonderful cards, I ended up by casing two cards as well!!! I love you using floral stamps, you do it so beautifully and I can understand why you wanted to CASE Laura's card. Love the colours you used with the sequin stamps. Enjoy your time at home before returning to the grind next week. Dave went back to work on Monday and is so jealous of the kids and I sleeping in and going to the pool each day. Might have to stop telling him about our days.......
Two beauties - like how your sentiment font matches your blog header!
Love them both, but your 1st one stole my heart. You are killing me with your WPlus9 floral cards--thank goodness I already have all those stamps. You have inspired me to pull them out. I know exactly which card of Marybeth's you cased, because I cased it too. she came over this summer and brought her stamps--that card was the one I cased (actually just replicated!)
