You can join our incredible papercrafting community at NO COST. So what are you waiting for?
I really missed you all last week, but I love all the wonderful things that Dini inspired! IC515 is an amazing gallery! I'm so sorry I couldn't play along. Well guess what?! I was so charmed by your designs last week that I've decided to carry that idea into our inspiration site this week. Have you ever been inspired by charms!? Well, just wait until you see the " Bohemian Findings Etsy Store". There are THOUSANDS of charms to inspire you and get your creative energies flowing! I found so many things that I love there (some beautiful beads, stones, and shells too)! If your inspired designs charm me again this week, you might even find your card on my very own Inspiration Genius Award Board too!
Challenge Goals:
Please don't be tempted to upload a card that you have made prior to this challenge, just because an image on the board reminds you of it. :cool: Rather, take the challenge of allowing your creative juices to flow based on your impressions when you look through the images. Remember, it can just be the color palette or style that ignites your creativity. Whatever draws you to the designs, take the challenge of doing something uniquely inspired today.
For those of you who say you get overwhelmed with having too many images to choose from, I've uploaded 15 of my favorites this week since there are so many charms! So just stick with one (or all) of those for your inspiration. Click on the images below to see them bigger and to get their links on SCS. Don't forget to let us know which photo served as your inspiration piece please.
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.
What an amazing Etsy shop. I've noticed a lot of gals wearing these thin wire, expandable bracelet with a charm or two hanging down, usually there are 3 or more of these bracelets worn together. You're on top of the trend! I created a card to go with the HYCCT challenge for today as well as yours.

WOW another AMAZING gallery! I wanted to apologize for going dark this afternoon. We had SharePoint Saturday here in Redmond so I had to work, but I'm going through the gallery now! So glad to be able to enjoy each and every design!
