Vacation Inspiration

Sometimes when it seems my creative juices have stopped flowing, a vacation helps to jump start it again.  I just spent some time at the coast, and it was a wonderful time to get away from all the challenges of life and renew my spirit.  A mini-vacation can inspire me just simply because of the renewal I experience.  However, the place you go can also inspire you -- for instance, a beach themed card after time spent at the beach.  This card showcases some paper piecing from patterns by Hot Off The Press, and a butterfly made from a flower, described here.
