This week�s inspiration comes from the online store Echo. In 1923, Echo was the first brand name ever printed on a scarf. Today they continue to push boundaries in print, pattern, color, and design.
For those of you who say you get overwhelmed with having too many choices, I have uploaded three of my favorites � so just stick with one (or all) of those for your inspiration. For the rest of you, remember to link us up to the item from Echo that inspired you.
Use the keyword: IC216 (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. Remember, if you are inspired by the creation of another artist, please do not use print-outs of the art in your creation or directly copy their work. 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). Also, remember to link to your SCS gallery on this thread. Thank you for joining me on this inspiration journey.
Ohh, just came home from my son's 50's dance and I see the challenge came out early. I really want to play, so maybe I will...I need a break from fabric, been working on a quilt. Thanks Stef!

I struggled a little with this site but in the end I like my card okay....it's always good to stretch!! Here it is, linked to my inspiration on the card description....
Wonderful site, Stef! I couldn't sleep so was up early. Don't you hate it when that happens on the weekend? Here's my Welcome Baby. Thanks so much for looking!
Indian Warmth
When I saw the site, I wanted to make an Echo Beach card. But the only inspiration from the beachwear was green gingham - and to use green gingham as my inspiration for a beach card would have been a very tenuous link - so I went for some much-needed warmth instead.
Hello everyone. Special Hi to Stephanie because you rock so much with your websites. Cool and what a variety of beautiful inspiration.
Here are my cards for today. Don't know that I'll be back today. Corryn is visiting later on, so I want to cook something special before she gets here. She loves chicken parmesan and I found a quick, easy and healthy recipe for it.
Here's mine! Lots of cool stuff on this site. Thanks, Stephanie, for finding it!
