I am always intrigued at databases and searching functions. Issuu is no  exception!<\/p>\n<p>As evident in my last two posts, <a href=\"http:\/\/pinterest.com\/cottagearts\/\">Pinterest<\/a> is my go-to visual tool since it is genius in its design and presentation&#8230;just like a designer&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Mood_board\">mood board<\/a>. But Issuu is unique in that it consists of on-line publications of all subjects&#8230;the art, photography, interior styling, and craft genres seem to attract the most views. How funny&#8230;those are also what I&#8217;m interested in (and most other women in the world)!<\/p>\n<p>ngg_shortcode_2_placeholder<a href=\"http:\/\/issuu.com\/shopruche\/docs\/ruche_spring2011_1\"><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">ruche spring lookbook<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>So far I am smitten wholeheartedly with <a href=\"http:\/\/issuu.com\/shopruche\/docs\/ruche_spring2011_1\">Ruche<\/a>. Their clothing line is dreamy beyond dreamy, but it is their lookbooks and photography that seem to speak to my similar sun-drenched style. Looking at this issue of Ruche reminded me of an image of mine from a year ago.<\/p>\n<p>ngg_shortcode_3_placeholder<span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">michelle shefveland. <a href=\"http:\/\/cottagearts-net.stores.yahoo.net\/sayitagsc.html\">say it again scrap.words<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/cottagearts-net.stores.yahoo.net\/buwi4pak.html\">butterfly wings 4<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>And, I may just be inspired to make something more dreamy\/ethereal with  our new botanical banners after seeing the two-page spread at the  beginning of this post! I&#8217;ll be sure to share it if I do.<\/p>\n<p>I was also inspired by the soft pink hues of Ruche&#8217;s spring line&#8230;and dug up this image.<\/p>\n<p>ngg_shortcode_4_placeholder<span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">michelle shefveland. <a href=\"http:\/\/cottagearts-net.stores.yahoo.net\/clcl11.html\">nature&#8217;s sketchbook photo art blend 4 (bokeh overlays)<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/cottagearts-net.stores.yahoo.net\/buwi4pak.html\"><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>In our June 11, 2010 Newsletter I shared a tutorial for giving your images a sun-washed look in post processing if you didn&#8217;t capture it in camera.
