As I mentioned before, I’m one of the lucky 300 bloggers participating in Blog It Forward, an idea launched by SFGirlByBay. We’re all writing about what inspires us personally.

I regularly read a few design blogs just to get some inspiration and see some pretty pictures. One of the blogs that I really like is SF Girl by Bay.
