I love collage and I just discovered ATCs. So I made a set for the challenge, but will have to wait until morning for the glue to dry before I can scan one.
Well, Karen, I now have blue hands, but this was fun. Unfortunately, my image didn't stamp complete and I tried to free-hand the lady's nose and chin - she's not the most glamorous of poster ladies, but she does represent most of us (no, my chin isn't that pointy!) So, this is an example of how to ruin a good idea - why does the final piece never look like we see in our mind's eye?
Oh, man! We're about to leave for a leaf trip in the mountains (I'm supposed to be putting on my makeup right now). I'll have to jump on this one on Monday.
Wow it has been so long since I've been home on a Saturday morning -- gonna have to see what I can come up with on this one. I absolutely love this poster - there is so much to see in it!!!!
This is the first time I have tried an inspiration challenge. When I saw the poster I thought of a stamp I got in a grab bag. I thought I would never use it but you have proven me wrong! Sooooo...here it is:
WooHoo! I got to play two weeks in a row!
Mine is here.
Thanks Karen for posting another really challenging challenge. Again this week I pulled out the brand new never used glitter glue, the skinny white ribbon and also the conchos for this one! Thanks for putting to use all those fun things I never remember to play with!
I am tickled pink and honored that something I submitted was chosen for the IC challenge. I loved this image and all the interesting detail and thought there would be many paths to travel on this challenge for a diverse group of cards. I have looked and commented on all of them so far and they are mind blowing, what great stamping! Thank you Karen, without you I never would have been inspired to particiapte in the IC let alone send you something I thought would be magnificent for this challenge.

Gotta tell ya, Karen, badmom gave me fits with that poster--so much going on it was hard to decide which direction to take--took a few wrong turns on the way! Poster

I got mine done! Guess what...I found a cute face to go in the collage I created. Thanks for the challenge Karen and the inspiration badmom6666! Thanks for looking!
This was VERY difficult for me. I'm not an abstract person at all. I didn't have the lovely face stamp that many of you used and this stamp was the closest I could come up with for a "memory" type thing. Thanks for the inspiration - even though it was hard and I really don't think I did very well.
I wasn't going to post this as I don't like it that well. I struggled with the coloring and then trying to embellish it. I had tried a couple of times to actually sketch a profile of a lady and try to do the flower/butterfly thing like our inspiration piece. I just couldn't get it to look good. This was my follow up attempt.

Sue, I just read your entry on this thread. We are in the same boat when it comes to abtract art. Funny we used the same set. I wasn't going to post mine but did any way. I love yours.
Although I just loved the poster, this was a hard challenge. I wasn't going to even attempt it since I don't have any faces or artsy stamps. Then that little voice inside kept calling me a chicken, so I had to attempt it. It's absolutely not what I had envisioned when I started, but I actually finished a card for the first time all week, so I decided to upload it.
Thanks for allowing me to inspire everyone, I really enjoyed looking at your cards and I do believe I personally commented on every one that was posted here thru this thread.

Well as I often do I forgot to put a link to my card back here in the thread. But I noticed that you commented on my card even though I am a scatterbrain. Thanks, badmom!!:mrgreen:
