Inspired?.... You will be!

Here again for a small round up of some inspiration from the internet.

You don't need my to tell you that Christmas is coming. By the time you read this, the German Christmas Markets will be just a few days away from opening and the Christmas playlist will kick into action on my iTunes. How about you?

But with that in mind, I thought I would highlight some winter shine for today's post - glitter, shimmer and all things sparkly.

Whether you are adding elements to your layouts, sprucing up your cards or making decorations and gifts, I hope you find some inspiration in my pretty finds!
