IC65 - Bedspread

Inspiration Challenge 65 - Bedspread - IC65

I bought this bedspread from Target for my daughter almost a year ago now. I love the color combination on it and the monkey is just too cute (it actually inspired me to buy the Monkey Business set).

I won't have a sample because between the move and the computer crashes I don't have my scanner hooked up yet (but yes, I did unpack my stamping supplies Thursday night!).
View Submissions

A big thank you to Vicki, Melody, and Joyclynn who guest hosted while I was dealing with the move. Your efforts are very much appreciated!

Please use the IC65 keyword when uploading your card (no space b/n IC and the challenge number).

There are no rules, so let your creative juices run wild -- be *inspired* and go get stamping! View the attached image. You may be inspired to recreate the piece - but that isn't necessary...get your inspiration from the colors, layout, or 'theme'. Don't worry - no card is 'wrong'!

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). Thank you.

Hi Karen - all settled?? Welcome back- what a beautiful color scheme! Unfortunately, my sister had a heart attack last night and I think these bright cheery colors will cheer her up some. In the meantime, CC prayers couldn't hurt!!!

Get Well

Thanks for looking!

This is the last day of my dh's vacation so he gave me about 30 minutes to do this challenge before heading off to Sea World.
Thanks for the challenge, Karen...hope you are settling in! Cute bedding!

Cannot wait to check out the others this evening!

Stamps'nCoffee · 03-03-2007, 06:38 AM

So tempted to see what everyone has done, but I'm going to wait until I get a chance to do mine! This a fantastic inspiration piece...but first, must clean up craft room...my creativity is stifled by chaos! Thanks Karen!

kerryp · 03-03-2007, 06:44 AM

What a great challenge, thanks Karen! Glad to hear that you're settling in the new home!
Here's mine:http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ga...91639&cat=8592
It didn't turn out quite like I thought! I was planning on going w/ the same color scheme, but it evolved a little along the way

. That's what I love about this challenge!

atomicbutterfly · 03-03-2007, 06:57 AM
