Yeah, sometimes us papercrafters find inspiration in the oddest places.... like this Kleenex box, for example:

(Ok, so it's Puffs, not Kleenex. Whatever!) |
As soon as I saw it, I automatically started thinking of
PTI's Aqua Mist, Hawaiian Shores & Simply Chartreuse, paired with their Turning a New Leaf stamp set & coordinating Die set, and after an hour, this is what came out of it:

Fun; one of those cards that just makes me smile! What you can't really tell from the picture is how some of the die-cut leaves are popped up for some dimension... looks pretty fun in real life, I think. Where have you been finding your inspiration lately? Leave me a link in the comments if you've got an oddly-inspired creation to share!

Cute... not that I'm biased or anything... (ha!) |

Hey, Steph! I found you from the forum, and have to say I love this card! It really looks like the box of tissues! I have bought some kleenex boxes because I liked the pattern so well, but never made a card from that inspiration...thinking I'll have to give that a try! Thanks for sharing and the inspiration!
