Splitcoaststampers.com - the world's #1 papercrafting community
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 takes us to the Rifle Paper Co.! The Rifle Paper Co. specializes in cards, miscellaneous paper goods, invitation templates, children's goods, and art prints. The whimsical designs often include hand-painted illustrations and lettering to compose a style that is both nostalgic and timeless.
I hope you enjoy browsing the website and are inspired by the many wonderful items they have to offer! And remember, out of respect for the store owner's artistic originality, please do not print out photos of the items to use directly on your project or copy a piece exactly!
Use keyword IC301 (no spaces or extra characters) and be sure you have commas between your key words.
If you don't have time to spend browsing the website, attached are a few samples from the store that you are welcome to use as your inspiration!
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). Also, remember to link to your SCS gallery on this thread. Thank you for joining me on this inspiration journey.

This is a cool site..so many items from which to get inspiration. I finally gave in to the season...I chose this Halloween card. Here's my interpretation of it. Great challenge!

I want to send a quick thank you to Jo Meyer for saying the Inspiration Challenge is her favorite. I've been a SCS member (and fan club member) for years, have done lots of challenges, but have never done an IC! Jo's comment got me interested, and I've dipped my teensy toes into the water with this little love note.
Thanks for the challenge, Anne. I've enjoyed looking through the Rifle Papers site!
