Inspiration in the galleries abounds today! We have so much talent here! These photos by ward are gorgeous and I love how she used one of the photos for the background and then layered the poem on top. Absolutely gorgeous. Love the reflection in the water too.

Fran, you're an angel. I've been in a scrapping funk lately, so I truly appreciate your recognition.

Anyone who has not seen the underwater photography that our member Sands does, should take a momemt and have a peek. It isn't a layout, but it is talent beyond measure.

Thank you Muma. I got so lucky, Nicole's Antiquated Dreams VC was perfect. I didn't have to recolor a single thing!

I feel so honored, this is my first time I think being nominated in this thread :)
