Splitcoaststampers.com - the world's #1 papercrafting community
You're currently viewing Splitcoaststampers as a GUEST. We pride ourselves on being great hosts, but guests have limited access to some of our incredible artwork, our lively forums and other super cool features of the site! You can join our incredible papercrafting community at NO COST. So what are you waiting for?
I have uploaded three of my favorites, but feel free to use any of the Marimekko umbrellas for inspiration. Make sure you provide a link to your inspiration when you upload, and please make something new for the challenge.
Use the keyword: IC142 (no spaces or extra characters) when you upload your card, and make sure you put commas between your key words.
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.
I always make time for your challenges, Stef, and this looks like one of those terrific ones you always come up with! good work, Stef. thanks for submitting early!

Great Inspiration Challenge...hope I have time to play today!
I love to see a cheerful umbrella on a rainy day!

How fun to use Marimekko! We are of Finnish descent and have visitied Finland numerous times-- we LOVE Marimekko! Thanks, Steph! Oh, hope I can play today!
Hi! Wow...I kinda spent way too much time looking for an umbrella stamp. Speedy the Cat was upset and kept putting a cake stamp in my lap...Think he wanted to tell me something??? LOL!
Thanks for more great inspirational material Stef - this was one of the easiest for me yet. I saw the first thumbnail and immediately had an idea of what I wanted to make.
Here's my card:
Well, I'm about discouraged with trying to upload with this old clunker computer! I cannot wait until mine is fixed.... but here is my not so great picture of what I came up with:
As always, thanks for looking. I'll be back later to comment!
