IC139 ~ Pink Lemonade Bags {08-02-08}
Inspiration Challenge 139 ~ Pink Lemonade Bags
This week’s inspiration comes from CristenC who suggested the very fun handmade purses by Pink Lemonade Bags.
There are so many fun ones to choose from. I have uploaded three of my favorites, but feel free to use any bag from her store (but please only use items made by Pink Lemonade Bags).
Make sure you provide a link to your inspiration when you upload, and please make something new for the challenge. Have fun!
Make sure you use the keyword: IC139 (no spaces or extra characters) when you upload your card, and make sure you put commas between your key words.
My sample ~ Chocolate Trellis Bag
IC139 Gallery
ETA** If you're having blog trouble this morning, it's more than likely being caused by an error with SiteMeter. If you remove the SiteMeter (until it's working again) your blog should load correctly.
How to Play ~ View the attached images. You may be inspired to recreate the pieces ~ but that isn't necessary ... get your inspiration from the colors, layout, style or 'theme'. Just enjoy wherever your inspired creative journey takes you. Make the inspiration piece your own. Don't worry ~ no card is 'wrong' and there is no time limit for uploading your card for the challenge. There are no rules, so let your creative juices run wild ~ be *inspired* and go get stamping!
Don't forget about No Upload Sunday - Let's give the gallery moderators a day off and not upload on Sunday (unless, of course, you are a Fan Club member - yet another reason to spend a little money on your favorite site). Thank you for joining me on this inspiration journey.

These are so pretty. And there are so many to choose from. It will be so hard to pick a favorite.

Oh, how fun. I've made quilts like the one in the middle. Never thought about making a bag like that. What an awesome tote bag that would be. Can you see where I'm going with this? Think I can make a bag and card to match?

This card practically made itself. As soon as I saw those bags, I knew what I was going to do -- IC139 Chocolate Retro Thanks by Clownmom at Splitcoaststampers
Thanks, Stef, for an easy one this morning!
I had to edit my photo because I forgot to link the inspiration. I'm not sure how long it will take to get there, so here it is -- http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php...ng_id=13745086

Wow! The bags on that site are the coolest. I love the shabby chic bags with the patchwork squares with frayed edges. I've seen quilts like that and have always wanted to try to make one. I will definately use one of them as my inspiration. I'm thinking of making something more than a card with this one.
I need to make my coffee and eat some breakfast so I can get some energy to create. I'll be back.
