I was so inspired that I just had to make a card!  Here it is, what do you think?

(Cardmaking supplies: Brocade stamp, flowers, and pearls by Hero Arts.  “thank you” stamp by A Muse. Ribbon and super cool aqua Zing! embossing powder by American Crafts.  Bird by Crate Paper.

Have you been inspired by office supplies?  I’d love to hear how!
