Bella Blvd Studio Blog: Pinterest Inspired

It's always been fun to browse thru Pinterest, looking at the endless ideas and inspirational images that are out there. Our designers always enjoy taking whatever image we provide them, and using it in whatever way inspires them the most as they work on their projects. It's amazing to see how many different ideas and designs can be inspired by just one image.

"True Happiness", by Kay Rogers.

This is my Pinterest-inspired layout. I loved the circles, and decided to make them the background on my layout. I got this shape from the Silhouette store, and backed the circles with papers, die-cuts, stickers, and chipboard.

Supplies:
Hello Autumn: Falling into Fall, Gatherings, Day Dream, Autumn Floral, Time to Rake, Borders, Treasures & Text, Trinkets, Paper Pieces, Chipboard Icons

“Thankful” card, by Ashley Marcu.

I love the Pinterest picture and was inspired by the vertical lines. On my first card I die cut the leaves from various Scattered Sprinkles papers and lined them up vertically next to a journaling card.

Supplies:
Scattered Sprinkles: Peep Sprinkles, McIntosh Sprinkles, Bell Pepper Sprinkles; Hello Autumn: Gatherings, Daily Details, Treasures & Texts, Trinkets; Designer Tape: Chevron Combo Pack

“UR Cute” card, by Ashley Marcu.

I took the inspiration up a notch on this card and die cut several circles and made a fun scene just like the Pinterest picture. The fun colors in Tiny Tots are super fun and perfect for making a sweet background.

Supplies:
Tiny Tots: Watch Me Grow, Toy Chest, Daily Details, Love to Learn, Trinkets; Amorie Chipboard Alphas: White

“Sunshine” card, by Sheri Feypel.

As you can tell from the cards that I created, I shapes in the inspiration stood out more than the colors. I started with a white base and punched out a bunch of circles to create my background. I wanted to keep it soft, so I added feathers and layered some punched clouds along with my sentiment.

Supplies:
Summer Squeeze: Wildflower, Summer Breeze; Sand & Surf: Cling Stamps; Feathers: Saltwater, White

“Friends” card, by Sheri Feypel.

I continued with the circles for this card as well. I started with a piece of the Scattered Sprinkles paper that already had some "built in" circles! I added more circles, layering some on the scattered sprinkles and others randomly on the paper. I stamped my sentiment and added a bunch of gold stars.
