April Pinterest challenge **WINNER**
This is a Pinterest-inspired challenge, but if you don't have a Pinterest account, you can still play along using the photo prompt I'm supplying from Pinterest.

Here are the spec's:
1) Using a photo/image from Pinterest (or the one supplied below), create a new project inspired by that prompt. 
2) Your project may be a scrapbook layout, card, home decor, art journal entry . . . anything crafty!
3) Traditional/digital/hybrid are all included.
4) Post your entry in this thread and share your inspirational photo (or state that you're using the prompt), and then tell me what about it inspired you.
5) Multiple entries are allowed.
6) You may combine with one other April challenge that also allows you to combine.  Please list it here.
7) Due midnight CST on April 30, 2015.
8) Winner from list of participants will be chosen by random.org for a $5 ACOT gift card.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Here's my Pinterest-inspiring photo for this month (it is linked to the source):

Here's my take on the prompt--I was so excited to find this photo of my DS with some of the same colors as the prompt!  So I used papers that coordinated, adding umbrellas and raindrops!

Loved this prompt! I used the colors, the idea of water (pool pics) and the flowers as inspiration. I combined w/ Becky Fleck #91 and the Guest Designer #1 (cherish) challenges. Thanks for the inspiration!

Happy Scrapping!
