I DID IT CREATIONS CHALLENGE #87

SUNDAY'S CHALLENGE FOR I DID IT CREATIONS

Hello Everyone!! Yes I can honestly say that it is not Sunday but this challenge is still going on. I am late on posting this challenge. Over the holiday's was hectic and I had that lovely flu that my Grandson decided to share with Grandma. It's amazing how he bounced back and I'm still suffering from it. I hope everyone had a Happy Holiday weekend. Mine was nice but I broke my very expensive camera. I will be borrowing one until I can get mine fixed so I can still post my projects. I didn't cry but I couldn't take anymore pictures for the rest of the day and so on. I missed some cute photo's of my Grandson. I could go on and on but let's get to the project that I did have done for you.

The designer that we used for this challenge was Robyn's Fetish. I know you have all heard of her and her awesome digital stamps. The theme was Gingerbread Christmas. I used Gingerbread Cookies. They do look like sugar cookies but I can honestly say they can be either one. I'm sure you would love to know the prize you would win.

The prize is 1 image

of the winner’s choice from the Robyn's Fetish Store

or 2 images if the winner

has used a Robyn’s Fetish image.

Remember to go to the I DID IT CREATIONS CHALLENGE BLOGget all the rules for you to enter your project. Remember, you still have time to enter this challenge.

Here's my card for the Gingerbread Christmas using a Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamp.

I do hope that you enjoy the card. I was trying to use the background paper as a cookie sheet but I don't know if it looks that way. The Design Team has worked very hard on these cards so I hope that you give them a visit and let them know how their hard work turned out. I hope you enjoy the rest of the week.

MONDAY'S MY GRAFICO'S CHALLENGE #118



Welcome to this weeks Monday Challenge with My Grafico. Hope you all had a great week. Now you have to start over again. This week will be a busy one but I'm going to enjoy it.

Well to break the news. This will be the last challenge for this year. We are going to take a break and come back at the first of the year. There is a challenge that you can enter through the holiday's. It is sad not to have one but I could use the two week vacation. I will still try and post things but don't be upset if you don't see anything on Monday's. I still have a challenge feature on Sunday's that you are more then welcome to enter.

This week we worked with Dreamloft Designs. The set that we used was Tropical Cocktails. This really reminded me of the summer and Pina Colada's. (I hope I spelled that right). There are different shaped cocktail glasses that is in this set. It was hard to figure which one that I want to use. I'm not much of a cocktail person but every once in awhile it's nice to enjoy one.Let me show you the set so you know what I'm talking about.

If you would like to see this set closer just go to Dreamloft Designs and you can enlarge the image and see it up close. You can also see more of what Dreamloft Designs has to offer. If you would like to see more about other designers just go to My Grafico Arts & Crafts Community.

I DID IT CREATIONS SUNDAY CHALLENGE

I DID IT CREATIONS (IDIC) CHALLENGE #86

Good Morning!! Hope you had a Wonderful Week. I can honestly say that my weekend has been the greatest. I'm usually so busy but this weekend I relaxed with my Grandson Hayden. He spent the night and my face hurts from all the laughing that I did. He's talking so much and some of the stuff he says is so funny. I get to keep him today until his Dad comes to get him. I'm sure it will be sooner then I want but he needs time with him also. You would think we have little kids with all the toys he has out. We can hardly walk in the living room. I don't mind. He can play with every toy he has. Grandchildren are great. I'm going to have a Granddaughter in April. How exciting.

Stitchy Bear Digital Stamps is the designer that we worked with this week. I chose a picture of a little girl writing letters. I am thinking she is writing Thank You Cards. I love little girls that wear cute little dresses. She was fun to work with. Here is the prize that you can win for this weeks challenge.

1 image of the winner’s choice from

FEATURE WEEK AT MY GRAFICO

TODAY'S MONDAY FEATURE AT MY GRAFICO

Thanks for joining me for another feature week at My Grafico. I'm sure you will love what we have for you. Is everyone getting ready for the holiday's?  I can say that I have been busier then normal. I attempted to go shopping this past weekend and the lines were so long. My husband and I took turns standing in line just so the other could take a break. Even the grocery stores were very busy. I came home and crashed for the rest of the day.

Let me get to this week's Feature.(I hope you are still working on those projects for the challenge that's going on now.) The designer that we are featuring this week is Dreamloft Designs. We used her clipart called Christmas Friends. These little friends are adorable. There are bears, snowmen and more that I would love to show you on her page. So let's get to her adorable friends.

These friends are so adorable and the colors are very bright and inviting. These would make a great purchase for cards and even scrapbooking layouts with pictures of the kids. I would love to make a layout with the bear and my grandson. Visit Dreamloft Designs and see the great price on these Christmas friends. She has many other designs that you can look at also.

You still have until December 16th to get your projects done for the Masks Challenge. I hope you are having fun with this one. Remember all you have to do is go to My Grafico's Challenge Blog and see all the rules you need to participate.

I didn't make a card for this feature. I decided to make a decorations that hangs on the front door or any other door you would like. I thing my grandson will love this one. Remember I used Dreamlofts Designs Christmas Friends.

There is glitter glue on all of the hats but it didn't show up that great. I think I needed a white door to take the picture but I hope you get my idea. I hope you loved the feature this week that we used with Dreamloft Designs. Don't forget that the reat of the Design Team made things from this set. Leave them some love when you see them. Next week will be our last week until the first of January. Don't forget to come here though and see what's going on. have a Wonderful Week and see you soon.



I DID IT CREATIONS SUNDAY CHALLENGE #85

GOOD MORNING!! WELCOME TO A NEW CHALLENGE FROM I DID IT CREATIONS (IDIC)

Wow, it's another Sunday Challenge. Time flies when you have kids in all kinds of after school activities. Why they do more this month then any other amazes me. Do they think we have nothing else to do? I love that my kids are doing activities instead of getting in trouble though. My son had finals all week and was a little bit unbearable to be around. I remember those finals but I don't remember being hard to live with. I'm glad they are done. I will say he did do very good on them. So did my husband. He is in college also at the same college with his son. They have two classes next semester with each other. Can't wait to see how that goes. LOL

Gingerloft Digi Designs was our designer this week and our theme is "Santa's Getting Ready"

I think I'm always getting ready for something. The digi that I used this week was a penguin. They are the cutest things. They live in the cold like it's nothing but it's been real cold here and I'm trying to get used to it. Here's the prize for this week's challenge.

It's 3 digi's of

your choice from

Gingerloft Digi Stamps.

What a great prize for this challenge!!

You can find her link there for her store where you can look at Gingerloft's Digi Designs. There are also more designs there to view. Take a little bit of time and see the great stuff there.

I told you that I used a penguin. He's helping to get the toys in the big toy bag. That's what the kids want to see. You can see that he's going over the list to see who will be getting those toys. Wonder who is on the list? Here's the card that I designed for you this week.

I hope you like it and get some inspiration from it. It was fun making it. The only thing I have trouble with is when to stop adding things. I still think it turned out OK.

Good Morning!! Hope you are enjoying your weekend. I have been cleaning so I can put my Christmas Tree up. My house is little so I have to rearrange everything to get it in the living room. It's been hard doing this since my back has been hurting a lot lately. I'm not suppose to lift that much but how are you suppose to get anything done when no one is ever home. Deer season isn't helping me out at all. All my lifting buddies are in the woods.I hope everyone is getting their stuff done for the holiday.

MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY FEATURE

MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY FEATURE WEEK

Welcome to our Monday Feature Week. Hope you all had a Wonderful Thanksgiving and an awesome weekend. I can honestly say that I had a Giving Weekend. This is something I said I would always do if my hair was long enough. Give it to the Locks Of Love. I had hair that was clear down to my behind. (Embarrassing Word) I had 16 inches cut off my hair. It felt so good to have that hair off of me. When I told the lady what I wanted it cut off, you should have seen her face. She asked me twice before she cut the pony tail off. Their are a lot of things that I really believe in and if I can help in any way I will. It feels great to donate that hair to help someone else. I didn't do it for the attention. Just to be happy doing it. You never know how great the feeling is to give.

Thanks for listening. Now let's get to the feature the Design Team and I had made this week. We used stamps from the designer Dilek Design Studio and the stamps were called Christmas Accessories Stamps. These are great accessories to use for anything. Scrapbooking Layouts, Cards, Altered Art and so much more. I was grateful for working with these. Do you know that at this time you can not find much of anything for Christmas Crafts. It's horrible. These stamps are going to come in great use for me. Let me show you the stamps so you can see how great they are.

I hope you like them as much as I do. I love the candle but couldn't figure out how to make a card. I know there are alot of saying with candles for the Holidays but I couldn't think of any of them. I guess I was having a creative block. LOL Here is the link that will take you straight to the page to purchase these. Also take a look at the other designer's stamps while you are there. They would love for you to see their work. Here you go:

http://www.mygrafico.com/1-00-dollar-sets/dilek-christmas-accessories-stamps/prod_1554.html

Also, you still have time to enter the challenge for this two weeks. The theme is Dinner/Cleaning and you have until Midnight December 2nd. It's a great challenge and I would love to see you all take a chance and enter.

Well now is the time to show you the card that I made this week with the Christmas Stamps from Dilek Design Studio. I love the holidays so this is going to be cute for one of my Christmas Cards.

I actually found this paper in my stash. See it's good to be a paper hoarder. I hope the card gives you some inspiration. I do hope that you go and look at what the other Designs did with these accessories. We all have different ideas so see what they are. I wish you luck in that challenge that's still open. Have a wonderful week and I wil see you next week where is will be another challenge week.

MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY CHALLENGE #116

MONDAY'S CHALLENGE WEEK AT MY GRAFICO

Good Morning. Today is the start of a new challenge for My Grafico. We will get into more detail about that in just a few minutes. I want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. If you read my blog yesterday I said the same thing and gave you a little insight of what my family does for Thanksgiving. You are more then welcome to go and see that post. This year has just gone to fast for me. I remember in high school it seemed like the days lasted forever but the older you get the shorter the days are. Sounds crazy but I know the older you get the more responsibilities we all have.

Well lets start with who the designer the Design Team worked with this week. The designer is Zenware Designs and the Digital Stamps that we worked with was Vintage Appliance Stamps. These reminded me of the comedy shows back in the 70's. It also shows how technology has made everything so much easier these days then back then. Here's a picture of the Digital Stamps. I'm sure you will love them and have great memories to make them scrapbook layouts or cards.

These are pretty vintage. I remember having a blow dryer like that for my barbie. There are so many different things that you will remember from these vintage appliances. Zenware has many different Digital Stamps that you can see at My Grafico's Store. You can begin here by going to the direct link to the Digital Stamps you see above at:

http://www.mygrafico.com/1-00-dollar-sets/vintage-appliance-stamps/prod_1181.html

Now this is our challenge week that will last for two weeks. The theme is going to be Dinner/Cleaning. The end date for the entries is December 2nd at midnight. The prize will be this wonderful stamp set. Who wouldn't want to get free Digital Stamps. You can never have enough. Ask me, I know. For more information about the challenge you can go to http://www.mygraficocrafts.blogspot.com/. Take a look at the entries and see what everyone comes up with. You are more then welcome to tell your friends about these challenges. The more the merrier.

Well I made a card this week with the Digital Stamps from Zenware. I have different sayings for all the stamps but decide to go with the one I'm about to show you. I was surprised at how many sayings you could come up with about appliances. Let's not make you wait. Here is my card.

I think it's cute. The paper in the bake was about making chocolate chip cookies so I thought this all went well together. Please visit the other Design Teams Blogs and let thee know how you love their projects. You may get some ideas to make a card for out challenge. Good Luck to all those who enter. See you next Monday



I DID IT CREATIONS SUNDAY CHALLENGE

SUNDAY'S I DID IT CREATIONS (IDIC) CHALLENGE #82

Wow, it's another Sunday for a great challenge from I Did It Creations. I'm sure you are looking forward to this one this week. It's a great one. Before I get started to tell you about the challenge I would like to say Happy Thanksgiving!! I was shocked when my Husband told me I need to start getting things for the dinner. I still thought I had another week. Another shocker, my Husband was the one that reminded me. That doesn't happen to many times. I was really not going to have a dinner in the beginning when we talked about it three weeks ago. Everyone has other places to go at different times that I didn't want to bother. I guess that's probably why I forgot all about it. I guess he decided who comes, comes and who doesn't it's their loss. We should still do it for the kids that are at home. Enough of my rambling. Lets get to the real reason we are here. The great Sunday Challenge.

First let me tell you that our designer this week is Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamps and More and the challenge has to do with Snowmen. I hear Snowmen and I automatically think of snow. I love the snow and ask for a blizzard every year. Makes my Dad mad since he works for our Township and has to clear those roads. I don't say it around him no more. LOL.

The prize this week is one image from Robyn's Fetish Store. Now, if you use her image you will win two images. She has a great big store so you could find almost everything that you like and more. Her store is at: http://robynsfetish.com/shop/ More of the rules for the challenge is at this URL also. If you have any questions let me know or Susan's e-mail will be on that page to.

I picked out a Snowman that is happy with his There is Snow Place like Snow Home. He's so cute. I just couldn't fit the name on the card by time I finished with the embellishments. I had the sign made with the saying above but I couldn't make it fit. I still think the card turned out very cute. Remember you can make a snowman for our challenge. You could turn around and send it to someone for a Christmas Card. Well let's show you my card.

I hope you can see the snowflakes. There are also birds eating feed. Can't wait to make one myself this year. LOL Pleas visit our wonderful Design Team's blog and leave them comments on their creations. My list is on the sidebar of my blog. Good Luck to everyone that enter's and I will see you next Sunday for a new challenge. Have a Wonderful Week and Happy Turkey Day.

She has a great variety of new Christmas Digital Stamps that are included in this sale. The sale is 35% off on all their stamps.

MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY FEATURE

MONDAY'S FEATURE WEEK FOR MY GRAFICO

Welcome to another Feature Week with My Grafico. This week we will show you a Digital Stamp set that the Design Team worked with. I will let you know about the challenge later on in the post. This is a little bit late being posted and I do apologize. Everyone forgets to do things here and there. As I said before, I need a big planner to keep all my commitments right there in front of me in the morning.

This week we worked with Dream Loft. The Digital Clip Art we worked with were called Love Bus Clip Art Collection. I thought of the 60's immediately and couldn't wait to see what it was we were working with. Of course, several things came to mind but some I just couldn't do. I was wanting a picture of one of my family members from the 60's but didn't find any. Not many people took pictures back then to show their future family anything that they lived through. Stories are great but having a picture with it makes it so much more to say. Well let's show you a picture of these Digital Clip Art from Dream Loft.

Pretty Groovy!! LOL Had to put that in there. If you would like to go and see more or Dream Loft's clip art I will give you the link for you. I will give you the link and then from there go to the rest of the store and see all the designer's work.

http://www.mygrafico.com/illustrations-cliparts/love-bus-clip-art/prod_5155.html 

Now, this is our feature week and not our challenge week. Last week we started the Challenge theme Autumn. You still have a chance to get in on that challenge. You have until the 18th of November at Midnight. For more of the rules of this change just go to http://www.mygraficocrafts.blogspot.com/. Feel free to share these challenges with your friends.

Well let me show you what I made from this clip art. I made a card. I have been trying to think outside of the box but everything I came up with was a card or a scrapbook layout. I do think the card came out great. I love the gemstones.

I hope you all like it. This was a little time consuming but well worth it. Please look at the other Design Team Members Blogs and leave them some LOVE. Have a wonderful week and I will see you next week with a new challenge. Good Luck.

SUNDAY'S I DID IT CREATIONS CHALLENGE #81

I DID IT CREATIONS SUNDAY CHALLENGE #81

Welcome to another Sunday's challenge. This week went by really quick and I can't believe we are here again. But that's a good thing. More challenges more prizes. These prizes are great and you don't have to do much to enter.

Nothing new here. It's the same old same old here. The only thing that is stressing me is seeing the count down of the days of Christmas. I don't know why people want to rush it. It will come in it's own time. I do have to admit that I have three gifts already. Way more then last year. This year is going to be more about family then the gifts. Economy is not helping me out any. I live in a state that doesn't have many jobs available. I hope that changes soon. That would be nice for Santa to bring us. LOL

Enough of my babbling and straight to our challenge. I think you will love it this week. I know I do. Our designer this week is JLJ Designs and our theme is Everybody Loves a Teddy. Yes, Teddy Bears. As you may know I love to work with teddy bears. They are so cute.

This is one prize that you are going to want to win this week. The prize is a $10.00 certificate to JLJ Designs. What a great prize!! Definately enter for this great certificate. I'm sure after you see our projects that you would want to win just to get some of the images that our Design Team made this week.

I picked out a dancing teddy bear. She is called Sugarplum Fairy. I did get a better picture this week with the stickles. I started using stickles and I just love them. I know I can't put them on every card but they are working great for the ones I have been making lately. So, here is my card for inspiration.

I hope you love the card. I love the little tutu that I made and these flowers our great. Please visit the other Design Teams blogs and leave them some love. I wish you all good luck and I will be back next week with another great image and designer. Have a Wonderful Week.

MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY CHALLENGE

MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY CHALLENGE #115

Good Morning!! Hope your Monday is starting out to be a good one. Mine so far hasn't been to bad. I found out that I will have a little bit more time this week for crafting. That's always a good thing. I'm sure alot of you understand about finding time for crafting. The only thing that I'm trying to adjust to is this time change. I'm usually not a morning person and I have been getting up at 5:00am. That is really not me. OK, let's get to the good stuff.

This week we worked with Dilek Design Studio Digital Stamps that are called Autumn Elements. The leaves at this time are so beautiful. Had to throw that in there. LOL There are different stamps with different Autumn things you see. If you have kids pictures with leaves or anything to do with this season, this is the stamp set for you. I had fun with this one and I can say that the projects you can make with these are endless. Here is a picture of the Digital Stamps that I made my project from.

I'm going to give you the link so if you would like to buy these digital stamps you can go straight to them. You can also see more of Dilek Design Studio's stamps and other Designer stamps that are sold at My Grafico's Store. Here's the link:

http://www.mygrafico.com/1-00-dollar-sets/autumn-elements-stamps/prod_1070.html

This week I decided to do something different. I made a seating name card. Some families have names on certain places for people to sit. Growing up we had the kid table and the adult table. That was simple enough for us. So here is what I came up with:

I hope you enjoyed the pictures that you seen. I think it turned out really cute. Please visit the other Design Team's blogs and see the great projects that they made with this stamp set. I wish you luck in your challenge and have a Wonderful Week.

1 image from STITCHY STAMPS and 2 images if the winner

has used a Stitchy Stamps image.

Here is the card that I made for my Winter Card. It's actually a Christmas card with letters to Santa. I used stickles and I always have a hard time taking pictures with them. They alway's show up to bright. So when you see something sparkle it's the stickles.

Don't forget to look at the other Design Team Blog's and see their creations they made for out theme. Good Luck with the challenge and I will have another challenge next Sunday. Have a Wonderful Week.

MY GRAFICO'S FEATURE PROJECT FOR THIS WEEK

FEATURE PROJECT THIS MONDAY FOR MY GRAFICO

Happy Halloween!! For those of you that do not like or celebrate the holiday Happy Monday. I didn't realize that there were many people that do not celebrate this holiday. You learn a lot about people when you are on this Internet. I have to admit that this is one of my favorite holidays. We decorate the whole outside and inside. We always have great compliments on our house. Unfortunately, this year we did not decorate. I had been very ill and my son didn't get to have his son this year for the holiday. Joint custody really stinks. Without having my Grandson it was just not the same. Being a Grandma is harder then I thought. I wish someone would have warned me.

This week we worked with Revidevi and the Digital Stamps called Build Your Own Farm. These stamps have all the things to make your own farm. All the pieces are separate so that's how you make the farm you want. I will show you the digital stamps so you know what I am talking about. I had pictures of my dad and daughter with cows but I could not find the pictures so I had to go with my second idea. Well let me show you the stamps right now.



If you would like to take a closer look I will post the link below. You can also see the rest of the digital stamps and I'm sure you will be absolutely amazed at the stamps. Just take a look for the sake of looking. Here's the link

Now this week is not a challenge week but you still have time to enter the challenge by going to mygraficocrafts.blogspot.com and read the rules. You have until Sunday at midnight to get your project in.

Well here is my project. I did a scrapbook layout instead. I think I may make a book with this for my Grandson. You will see what I'm talking about.

Well I hope you like it. If you can't read it, it's Old McDonald had a farm. I would love to make a scrapbook for my Grandson for us to go and read through that is homemade. Please visit the other Design Team Blogs that's on my sidebar to see what they came up with. Hope everyone has a Wonderful Week.

MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY CHALLENGE

MONDAY'S MY GRAFICO CHALLENGE #114

Hello again!! I'm catching up and now I'm going to tell you about My Grafico's preview for this week. I don't want to bore you with all the things that I said in the last post that was posted earlier today. Kids are in school and I'm getting a little bit caught up. I'm so glad. So, here is the project that My Grafico's Design Team worked on this week.

This week we worked with DreAm Loft and the set called Little Monster SVG. These monsters are very cute and not scary to the little ones that you decorate for. I had started one project, threw it away and started a new one which I will show you here in a minute. I decided to use all the monsters because you can't just pick one out of this bunch. Here is the SVGs for you to look at:

So if you would like to take a closer look at these stamps here is the link that will take you right to them. When you are there look at the rest of DreAm Loft's Design's. I'm positive you will find more that you will want. Here is your link:

Now here is the project that I made for the little monsters. This was an easy thing to make but was just time consuming. I still think it turned out great.

Well I hope you liked the card and also visit all the other DT blogs and see what they made of the same stamps. Have a Wonderful week.

SUNDAY'S I DID IT CREATIONS CHALLENGE

I DID IT CREATIONS (IDIC) SUNDAY'S CHALLENGE #77

Hello everyone. I know today is not Sunday but I still wanted to post the challenge and my project for you to see. You still have time to put your project in the challenge for this week. I feel like I am running behind for the last couple of months. I wonder if I will ever get ahead with all the holidays coming up. I know having my daughter home all last week added to my reasoning of being behind. We are from a small town where alot of the students here are in 4H. So there are many that participate in the fair so the district just gives the students the whole week off. It was fun when I was in school but being a parent it does add some confusion in my schedule. I can say that I did get to spend time with her and the crafts had to be set aside until she went to bed which was late every night.

This week's sponsor is Robyn's Fetish and our theme for this week is If I Could Talk To The Animals. Since I could choose the animal I wanted is when I decided to choose another bear. A very cute bear that had a pumkin outfit on. This put two things together, a bear and the holiday Halloween.

Robyn's Fetish will provide a FREEBIE for any participant that wants to use it for their entry.

All you have to do is email me at

 susan_paulson@verizon.net

 put CHALLENGE # 77 FREEBIE in the SUBJECT LINE

Don't forget to tell me the name of the DT member.

I will send you that image and you will be able to craft away!

The PRIZE for this challenge is 1 Robyn's Fetish image of your choice.

If the winner has used a Robyn's Fetish image for the entry,

the prize is 2 images from Robyn!

Now I will show you the card that I made with my bear. I hope that you get some inspiration from the project that I did.

Don't forget to visit the other Design Team Blogs to see the creations that they made this week. Good Luck with the challenge. It will be nice to see what you create.

MONDAY'S MY GRAFICO CHALLENGE

MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY CHALLENGE # 116

Happy Monday!! Getting ready for another work week. The weekends are just not long enough anymore. We try to do something on the weekends with the kids. Even if it's a board game called Sorry. My daughter's favorite game right now. If we would let her we would be playing all night. It's nice spending time with them because when they move out who knows when you will see them. My son is 22 and I still hate when he leaves here. You can't keep them at home but you still miss them the same. I worry more then I thought I would after he left. I now know why my parents were always saying they never see their grandkids. You don't realize what they are saying until you go through it. Well enough about me this week. I don't think you would like to read a book about my life. I have thought about writing a book though. I just don't know how to start it off. Any suggestions just let me know.

This week we worked with Designer Olillia Illustrations and the Digital Stamps are called Mom To Be Shopping. Once I seen the credit card in her hand I knew what I wanted to do. You can do anything with a credit card. Although I do not have one. They are to much trouble. The stamps are very lovely women with their cute little belly's. Well lets show you the stamp that I was able to use this week:

So if you would like to take a closer look at these stamps here is the link that will take you right to them. When you are there look at the rest of Olillia Illustrations. I'm positive you will find more that you will want. Here is your link:

Well here's my creation for the week. I made a shopping list for baby. I wanted to do something different then a card this week. Hope it gives you some inspiration.
