Blog Link Up: Inspiration Check In
Do you ever feel like you're taking in more inspiration than you can handle? The internet makes it so easy to just sit back and take in more and more information, and without the conscious decision to stop and process it, things can quickly reach an overwhelming place. Several things have given me pause to consider this fact, but now I've decided to do something about it! It was really this blog post by Rachel at Citrus and Mint that gave me the push I needed. Today I'm going to share a few images that are really inspirational to me and how I'm going to actually use that inspiration in real life. I'd love to hear what's inspiring you too! So at the end of the post don't miss your chance to link up with your inspiration check in.
There's no wrong way to go about writing a post like this, the main thing is to take a moment to stop and consider what's influencing you and what you want to be influencing you. You can do like Rachel did and write about a single artist/designer. Or you pick a few images you've seen and saved recently on Pinterest and discuss why you picked them. I'm going to pick an idea that I've felt pulling me lately. Or you can do something else. That's what makes these blog link ups so great!

About Me
Hi There! I’m Marisa Lerin and you’ll see me around at DigitalScrapbook.com a lot. I started this site in 2010 soon after I discovered a new love in digital scrapbooking. DigitalScrapbook.com has gone through some significant changes since that time and it’s grown into this lovely community site you are seeing now. I am daily surprised by the turn of life’s events that has led me down this path. If you're new to the site, welcome! Here are a few tidbits about me that I hope will help you get to know me better!
I’m originally from Minnesota, USA, but spent a good chunk of my childhood living abroad (in Bolivia and Hong Kong). I returned to Minnesota to attend university, got married and then moved overseas again (Korea, then Jordan and 1 year of traveling). My designs are heavily influenced by these many nomadic years. I am currently back in the USA, now living in the great state of Oregon!
I have no official training for what I’m doing, since I decided very wisely (haha) to study physics in university. I am always learning new things about digital scrapbooking, and this community has been immensely helpful for that!
If I manage to stop digital scrapbooking you will probably find me watching TV, reading or baking. I also enjoy writing for the blog here at DigitalScrapbook.com where I talk about whatever happens to be catching my fancy at the moment.

Great to see your thought process in designing pages
