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 Challenge website is "At West End". This website is filled with wonderful unique items that are rustic and recycled! They've got a vintage, shabby flare going on here and if you're still working on those Christmas crafts, there's lots here to inspire your holiday creations too!
Enjoy browsing this unique website, and if you get too overwhelmed by all the choices, attached below are a few samples from the store that you can focus on for your inspiration!
Use keyword IC315 (no spaces or extra characters) and be sure you have commas between your key words.
How to Play ~ View the attached sample images and/or browse the suggested website. Get your inspiration from the the individual items, patterns, theme or color pallets. Just enjoy wherever your inspired and creative journey takes you! Make the inspiration piece your own! Don't worry ~ no card is 'wrong'! There is no time limit on this challenge and there are no rules. Explore and enjoy ~ be *inspired* to create, have fun, and share your artwork!!
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).
Finally, remember to link to your SCS gallery on this thread.
Thank you for joining me on this inspiration journey. :lol:
Thanks, Anne, for an awesome site full of goodies for inspiration! Here's MY CARD.

I love this Inspiration Challenge! I was influenced by rustic iron bells with rope hangars - I embossed this rustic fishing image with Versamark, then used green and gold embossing powders. I stamped the inside of the image with Tim Holtz' distressing ink (tobacco colored) to pick up the details. I thought this gift tea tin was just right for this image. Have a wonderful Saturday! Here is Rustic tea tin.
