Hello again my lovely Pinkfresh friends!  I'm excited to be sharing a new layout with you today that is a little different from the LOs I usually share.  I have a spot on the wall in my craft room where I hang my latest/favorite layout of the moment and for the past few months I've had a layout there which outlined my personal goals for the year. It was awesome having that reminder hanging there and it would always get me pumped to keep going and do better.   Well, that layout has been added to the books, so I thought I would use all the fabulously inspirational tidbits in the Life Noted and Felicity Collections to make a new motivational layout to hang on my wall.

I began by choosing a photo of a flower that I snapped in the spring and just adore. Next I took to the internet to find a lovely flower quote to inspire me and finally I set about filling the page with all kinds of  color and motivation.  Please excuse the typo in the quote above, I'm not as sure on the typewriter as would like to be.  

Finding inspiration in the two latest Pinkfresh collections was crazy simple!  There are so many great quotes and phrases that speak to me.  It's very obvious that a lot of thought was put into making the words in both collections, unique and meaningful.  

My last step was to add some fun stitching around the layout.  It had become such a straight and graphic project that I needed  a way to soften it and add interest, which I think was achieved beautifully with the stitching.   If you're itching to create and don't have a specific story to tell, I urge you to give a purely motivational layout a try, and then don't be afraid to display it proudly!  Have a great week friends!
