Inspiration comes from everywhere...

Woke up this morning, like every other day..., well no, not exactly... I received a handpainted birthday card from a very talented munchkin ... Yep, another birthday.   Then I read some absolutely lovely comments from blog friends who visited overnight (you know the whole day/night hemisphere thing)... and it just made my day I have to say- totally unsolicited!  My phone beeped all day with birthday greetings from friends near and far (Gracias, Obrigato, Merci, Grazie!) and then I sat down and had a lovely catch up (yadda, yadda, yadda...) over a delicious latte and absolutely divine cupcake with my sister (there are 4 left in the fridge... not for long I say!)  Okay, so the rest of the day was standard stuff, but hey... what's a girl gonna do... look for inspiration I say!

So I flicked through some magazines, searched pinterest and rummaged through a really, really old folio of mine... and this is what I got.  A montage of birthday wishes and inspiration for my year ahead.   

Mwah, mwah to you all... may inspiration abound for you.

As Sir Paul Smith said ... "You can find inspiration in everything; and if you can't look again."  xx
