IC305 ~ GelaSkins Gallery {10-08-11}

[Itsapassion]

Hi Everyone! (and Happy Birthday Stephanie! Hope you enjoy your special day!! )

This week's Inspiration Challenge website is the GelaSkins Gallery! GelaSkins are artistic, removable covers for protecting and customizing portable devices. The website features stunning, photo-quality graphics ranging from fine art prints to contemporary urban images designed by artists from around the globe.

Enjoy browsing the website, and if you get too overwhelmed by all the choices, attached are a few samples that you can focus on for your inspiration! Please remember, out of respect for all the artists' original work found on GelaSkins, please do not print out any photos of the items to use on your project or copy a piece exactly!

Use keyword IC305 (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!

My Sample: Delightful Trees

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.

Interesting to see the Cosmo Cricket papers. I could have just stuck the measuring tape one on a blank card , but it wouldn't have been very interesting.
