Sometimes we just need a little push to go after the things we want. Occasionally that means being inspired by someone who is a "go getter" -- someone who's strong, driven, hard-working, etc.
Here is a classic image of just what I'm talking about
This image of Rosie the Riveter really inspires me not to let bad things get me down, and I think it can inspire a really beautiful and meaningful card.
You can definitely see how it inspired DoBea's card
The colors and the message really stand out on this card!
DoBea also took a moment to describe her motivation to create this card:
The Rosie the Riveter poster makes me think about the long way that women have come in this nation. We have made great strides in political, economical, and monetary aspects of the US, but there are still a great number of us who struggle with the belief in ourselves. The sentiment I put on the card is for myself, my friends and family, and all of the women out there to remind us that we all have greatness inside, we just need to believe in it.
So true!! Thanks DoBea :-)
No matter where in the world we live, I believe we can all draw inspiration from this image.
We'll be back tomorrow with a sketch and a new sponsor...

I like the distressed look of DeBoa's card, and the yellow flower gives it a perfect touch. ~Karen
Fasination challenge. Thanks.
I've loaded mine up. It's at the bottom of a long post due to Mother's Day being the same day.
I was really inspired by this one. Thank you!
