IC50 - Store Bought Card
Inspiration Challenge 50 - Store Bought Card
This beautiful card front was submitted by Cary (aka Miss Minx). I'm such a sucker for sunflowers I couldn't say no
I'm helping my mom do a craft fair Saturday so my card will have to wait (wish us luck!!). But, seeing as I do love sunflowers, I will defintely have one soon.
Oh, and for those who like to be teased - my 1 year challenge is coming up after Thanksgiving. I'm going to have a little contest - with prizes!! (Thanks Joyclynn (aka Twget) for helping me with that!!)
There are no rules, so let your creative juices run wild -- be *inspired* and go get stamping!
REMINDER: Please put IC50 in the keywords box when you upload your card (no space b/n IC and the challenge number) . If you have more than one keyword use a comma to separate them. Thanks!
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 on your favorite site). Thank you!!
Woohoo I'm the second one to see it. This is gonna be a great challenge for the sunflower lady! Thanks Karen and good luck at your craft show!

Woohoo...I know it's late (11:06 p.m.) but I saw this sunflower and an idea popped in my head. I don't even OWN any sunflower stamps, so I made one up. I'm proud of myself...I didn't even go looking at any for ideas...this is my original: Sparkley Sunflower
i did one a while back using touch of nature. i am off to Long Island for the weekend, so i am "cheating" a little i guess... Gallery at Splitcoaststampers

awww man this is awesome. So now I know I'll have to fit it in later today. I'll be running until late afternoon though. Too funny, the other day a friend of mine was just asking me about sunflower stamps and if I had any. she may want to borrow the one I have but she'll have to wait know until I get to this challenge. teeheee. I haven't used it in a very long time and now I can't wait.. cool Ic karen.
It's a good thing I woke up early this morning so I could get started on this one. Does anyone else notice the cards created from this challenge take a long time to complete ? I don't know why but I am so involved with my IC card, maybe that is the whole point in creating from an Inspirational art challenge. Anyway, I just love this challenge and seeing what everyone creates from the sample. It is like seeing an Art Gallery right from home !
That is a beautiful card. I simply have no large butterfly stamps. My stamp room is just full of so much stuff you can't imagine....and I don't have what I need! Unbelievable.....my DH can't seem to believe it either!
I was able to do two cards for today's challenge. Whoopee! I loved the butterfly on the inspiration piece. Here are my cards -- Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
This is my first inspiration challenge. It certainly was difficult for me, but I enjoyed spreading my wings and trying some different things. Thanks Karen for a great challenge. Here's mine Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
The card didn't take that long to create but the body took a long time getting to it today, too many other duties needing my attention but it's done. Thanks Karen!
Karen, with getting back into the workforce, I have been to busy to play the last few weeks :( but I will be SURE to check out the anniversary fun! Do you think an IC is an acceptable reason to call off work? LOL

Mine, too, kept evolving and changing, and it took me half a day to finish it, but I guess I'm pleased with the results. Thanks, Karen, for an exciting challenge!
