Inspire Me Monday!

Good morning friends! I hope you all had a lovely weekend. I did...and I think I could use some coffee right about now...

I think one of our favorite design elements to use in just about everything is damask. I'm not sure what it is about damask, but it's inspiring and can fit just about any invitation or card needed! Here's a few of our designs inspired by the damask pattern:


And while some of these designs are not TRUE damask, they were definitely inspired by it!

This paper pattern from Paper-Source is more of a "flourish" than a damask, but has been our favorite for a while! It also has a matching stamp (which we used both the paper and the stamp in the above Mary Kay consultant set).

And I can't help but to do a search on etsy to find some lovely handmade items inspired by damask!

Last but not least, our dear friend Melanie, whom we made these calling cards for, uses damask in much of her home decor.

It makes me want to get moving on a lot of my DIY home decor projects!!! Check out her stuff here. And here's a few of her damask projects from her blog.

Boy, I really bombarded your lives with lots of pictures! Enjoy your Monday! Live inspired!
