Scrapbooking giveaway day
This weekend’s giveaway comes to you straight from the studio of Dottery Pottery. It is a beautiful glazed pendant stamped with leaves and on a chain. Very summery!
Dottery Pottery is run by Sarah Duke who says:
I am the dottery potter and I work from my little studio in Hampshire creating fun, bold ceramics.
I draw inspiration from a wide variety of sources but particularly enjoy using imagery from nature, dreams and fairytales. My love of bright colour and texture dominates much of my work and I like things to be very decorative and eye-catching.
To enter, leave a comment on this post about something that inspires your creativity.
Entries close at midnight Sunday (UK time) and the winner will be posted Monday night, so be sure to check back and see if this was your lucky weekend!

The pendent is gorgeous. I’m starting LOAD on Sunday and that will be so much inspiration for me!
Happiness is also very inspiring – the mass happiness in London today was wonderful (and I was only watching the TV from abroad) and made me feel so good.
have a great long free weekend!
29 April 2011, 14:48
Oh, how pretty is that! :)
I can be inspired by pretty much anything – particularly another crafter’s work (even if what I make as a result looks nothing like what they made!)
Thanks for the chance to win. Have a great weekend xx

The thing that inspires me the most is my son, his untainted outlook on life makes me take a step back and look from his perspective :0) The necklace is so beautiful.
29 April 2011, 16:15
That pendant is beautiful!
I recently bought a box for my scraproom: http://justmeandmyasdf.com/?p=2115. I’m not sure what to put in it, but I love having it as part of the decor.

My little herb patch in the garden often inspires me. The smells and the colours both make me want to get busy making soap and cooking up treats!
29 April 2011, 21:42
Reading inspires me. Once I finish a book {or maybe in the middle of it} I start to think of projects I could do that represent the story. :) Ever since my 4th grade reading “show and tell” project, I’ve been on a kick … I’m way past 4th grade! lol.
This is a lovely necklace, thanks for the chance to win it.

Being challenged by magazines and blogs is inspiring. If I hav free range with all my stash I can feel overwhelmed. If I’m challenged to use a specific colour como, that limitation is inspiring for me
30 April 2011, 05:53
I love your designs – they always make me smile. I dream in fabric, taking inspiration from the world around me – colours and textures that make me feel good.

Things that inspire my creativity. Well, much like you, pretty papers! Bright coloured, with bold patterns especially. New craft stuff inspires me too, especially if it’s been given to me by friends (I am very lucky to have such generous friends!). And sometimes, inspiration just strikes, without warning, from nowhere. It’s times like then that I have to get to my craft room right away!
1 May 2011, 02:01
I have found a lot of inspiration from reading other folks’ blogs, and participating in challenges. I’m relatively new to the blog scene, but it just keeps getting more fun every day!

Music, a lot of time a snippet of song lyrics will become inspiration for a layout, and sometimes, even the title.
