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?
This week�s inspiration was suggested by Elizabeth (beadsonthebrain). The website Catherine�s Animals features pictures taken by Catherine Ledner and showcased in her book Animal House. In her tongue-in-cheek peek at critters great and small, photographer Catherine Ledner has brought the animals indoors to create a collection of magical and clever portraits.
I have uploaded several of her animal portraits, but feel free to use any of the animals for your inspiration. Make sure you let us know which animal inspired you when you upload, and please make something new for the challenge.
Use the keyword: IC144 (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.
Oh wow, that web site is THE BEST!! And I am so inpsired!! I have a zillion ideas running around my head...or is that a zebra sitting on a million monkies?? LOL I'll definately be playing with this one tomorrow!!
Hi! Well....I had to use the Turkey photo as inspiration! You see...well...I explained it all in my description....And, please, I think the matter of my drooling is exaggerated! LOL!
Here's today's submission

Oh my gosh! I looked at those pictures and so many twisted sentiments went through my head. Hopefully I'll have some time to play today while stamp club is working away!
What a great inspiration piece! this is going to be fun! I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with. I'm probably going to be doing a lot of giggling as I view the gallery!
With 3 dogs in the house, somd days I already feel like I live in a zoo. But if they had a playmate, I think a little monkey would be a fun addition (NOT!)
Here's my card. Thanks for another great challenge Stef! IC144 - Monkey Hugs by Doodledop at Splitcoaststampers
Those were fun pics and I chose the one w/two llamas in front of the blue/white Victorian style BG: Here's to Ewe!
