Inspiration Challenge 194 ~ Pylones

Hi All!

Thanks so much to Stephanie for inviting me to host the IC this weekend!!

Last week I got to spend a "Girls Weekend" in New York City! (Big deal for a gal from TX!) One of the reasons I love it there is for all the unique shopping!! We came across a fun and outrageous store called "Pylones" in the West Village. I was instantly consumed by color, design, and inspiration there and it made me anxious to get home and stamp again!!

So this week, please check out the Pylones website!! For your convenience below, I've attached a few samplings from their website that you can use as inspiration, or feel free to choose anything that you find inspiring from their website!

Use the keyword: IC194 (no spaces or extra characters) when you upload your card, and make sure you put commas between your key words.

Here are samples to get you going this weekend:

My sample (Itsapassion): Pylones Challenge!
Julia's (Artystamper): A Fancy Friend
Anne's (JDMommy): Frog Lunch Box
Bev's (Beestamper): Fairybrush

>>> Link to IC194 Gallery

How to Play: Check out the inspiration website and/or images attached. Get your inspiration from the colors, style or 'theme'. Just enjoy wherever your inspired, creative journey takes you and share it with the rest of us!! 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 on -- 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.

That was such a fun site - thank you for sharing it with us. I fell in love with the site layout, and had fun looking at all those lovely things - but in the end I went back to the first thumbnail of the orchid plate.
