Good morning blog readers! Today it's time for the April installment of I Spy with My Mind's Eye. Every day we scour blogs, online galleries, Facebook, and Twitter to find examples of layouts, cards, and other projects using our products.
Once we find eye-catching,inventive projects...we pin them to our "Inspiring Cards and Layouts" Pinterest board. No one uses MME better than YOU do. So keep sharing, we love what you create.
Today we have seven projects that we wanted to share with you. Each designer's name is linked to their blog. So make sure to stop by, say hi, and see more of their talents!

Designer:Valerie Huang
Valerie says:The reason I created this layout is to put it in the frame as our family photo in the living room.I love Instagram and absolutely can't live without. Love the random shots I took the same week. It also makes me smile whenever I see it.
Why it caught our eye: We adore the way Valerie showcased Lucky in Love on this layout. The "clothesline" is so smart and creative and this is the perfect piece to showcase special photos.

Designer:Cathie Reed
Cathie says:Enamel dots are wonderful embellishments for boy pages – I love them. I bought a few packs from my LSS and I wondered what would happen if I used a lot of dots on one page. It was a little scary at first but once I let go of that supply-hoarding-instinct I had a blast and love how my page turned out.
Why it caught our eye: Cathie rocked the enamel dots in this layout. She uses them in a modern, playful way and we LOVE this page. The strip of fun, scattered embellshments across the bottom of the page adds the perfect finishing detail to the page. We loved seeing our dots used in such an inventive and creative way.

Designer:Debby Hughes
Debby says:I created this card for a CASE Study challenge. I wanted a repeating patterned graphic card but felt it would be great to break the pattern up a bit for interest. My Mind's Eye enamel dots were the perfect solution! I used the My Sweetest Thing honey love and bluebell smile.
Why it caught our eye: This is, hands down, the most chic way we've seen our enamel dots shine on a card. Simply, graphic perfection. This is a card that anyone would be lucky to receive!

Designer:Valerie O'Neall
Valerie says:This layout was created for The Scrapbooking Studio. This is the first two-page layout I have done in such a long time. My Mind's Eye has such fun embellishments! They really make layouts come together quickly!
Why it caught our eye: This is a two page layout done right. Valerie uses our embellishments in perfect moderation here. We could study this layout all day and still find things we love about it.

Designer:Tiffany Hood
Tiffany says:The Lost & Found 3 Ruby collection is my favorite collection of all time. It's elegant and sweet and sophisticated. I fell in love with the colors, the sparkle, and the elements when I first saw it and knew instantly which photo I wanted to use with the collection- a picture of my sweet little girl when she turned one, decked out in her tutu and pearls.
Why it caught our eye: This page is lush, beautiful, and feminine. It should be framed on the wall and not put away in a scrapbook. Lost and Found 3: Ruby is the perfect line for this darling photo.
