unexpected inspiration

I design a lot of flyers, brochures, invitations, postcards, and such for my job. Sometimes I simply run out of ideas. I typically head to my inspiration boards on Pinterest, look for stock images or designs that spark ideas, or turn to other projects to generate ideas.

Last week I was working on a flyer and printed it out to get some feedback from my coworkers. As they look it over, they mention how my flyer matches my outfit.

I look down.

Sure enough. My teal jeans, black top, black zebra shoes, and coral nail polish are each clearly represented on that printed piece of paper.

I seriously had no idea I was doing that.

And yes I sat on my office floor beneath my window to get these lovely pictures.
