Hi Mousescrappers!

I'm Susan and I'm hosting the challenge this week.

Spring is in full bloom where I live. I just love Spring! It's my favorite time of year and also my favorite time to go to Disney World. We went to Disney over Spring Break in March and were able to see the beautiful flowers and topiaries at Epcot for the International Flower & Garden Festival. Your challenge this week is to create a layout that is inspired in some way by the Flower & Garden Festival photos below:

It may be that you are inspired to create a layout with some of the bright colors or maybe it makes you want to use flowers or leaves on your layout. Maybe there are shapes that inspire you. Whatever it is, just tell us what inspired you to create your layout!

Rules:

- Your page must be in some way Disney related (vacations, parks, costumes, toys, Disney on Ice, etc).
- Tell us what inspired your layout.
- Post your LO in this thread (including credits or a link to credits).
- Post your LO in the corresponding attraction thread as to what your LO is about.

All layouts must be posted in this thread by midnight PST. A winner will be chosen at random to win a $5 gift certificate to Scrapmatters, my favorite shop.

I can't wait to see how you are inspired! Check back later here to see what inspired me. Thanks for playing!

Have to do these right away or I will forget! I went literal on your theme and scrapped the F&GF! I'll come back and leave loves after someone else posts.

i was inspired by the bright colours and the festival reminded me that we were there for the food and wine festival

I'm so jealous you got to go to Disney for Spring Break!! It's our SB here in Ca and everyone is sick. Plus it is unusually winter-like as far as weather goes. Brrr!
Oh well, I'll get my creative hat on and figure out how to incorporate your theme. Hope everyone takes long naps early and I don't have to clean up any "sick messes".

What a fun challenge!! I LOVE the pictures you're using for inspiration!!! Great challenge!

Well, I was originally going to use a ton of flowers on this layout. Then I went with the little heart string thing. So I was initially inspired by all the orange flowers.

P.S. This photo is from the Disney cruise.

Woohooo, we're off to a wonderful start with these gorgeous layouts!

Fran, Gill, and Amber ... thanks so much for playing! When you participate in these challenges, not only do you get a layout done, you inspire all of us!

Fran - Love the composition and all the flowers and leaves! Great title work, too!

Gill - Love all the colors and pictures! Great journaling and love the paper blocking with stitches.

Amber - Love the single photo with the quote above it. It really is an elegant layout. Such a gorgeous photo, too!

I was inspired by all the bright colors in those photos ... and the last photo with the large mickey shape .... perfect idea to frame out these three photos.

Thanks Susan for a great challenge !!!
