Hello! This is my first blog post as part of the Cocoa Daisy team and I just want to tell you that I hope you find a little something inspiring about it today. If not, I still want to say thanks for stopping by and thanks for being a part of the Cocoa Daisy family! I have been loving my role as design team member and the best part about Cocoa Daisy is all the people who join in the message boards, play along with challenges, share pages and projects in the gallery and just share parts of you with all of us! It’s a great place to be and I am happy to call it my Scrap Home! So, speaking of home, I am excited to share with you a few of my favorite places to “go”. There are hundreds and thousands of blogs online and if you are like me, your time to get lost in them all is sometimes short and sweet. I have found that for me one of the best parts about scrapbooking and being a creative type person is there is inspiration everywhere! Today I am passing along links to three of my favorite lifestyle blogs for inspiration. I find that these particular blogs have a wide-range of topics, but almost always the posts inspire me in some way. Whether it is a color combination, or a craft tutorial, or new fonts or photographs and art, these blogs rarely disappoint. They also have links to several of their favorite blogs and well, you and I both know the journey we can find ourselves on by clicking those as well!

So without further ado, I give you these blogs:

1) Hank and Hunt

If you have some favorite lifestyle bogs that inspire you, please feel free to share the name and/or links to them in the comments here. When I am “stuck” or just looking for inspiration for my next page or project it’s alway fun to have great places to click and find some unexpected and wonderful surprises waiting for me. I hope you find something at the end of one or more links here too!
