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?
Please use the IC71 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.
Hey, I think I'm first, for the first time ever! That's one heck of an interesting butterfly - I can't wait to see what people come up with. Off to dream up something...
Alllll-righty then! I TOLD you always see butterflies for the inspiration challenge! Maybe I'll do a CAMEL! LOL!!

DIdn't think I would do this tonight, but after I saw the inspiration piece I had to go get the old stand by butterfly set out and stamp a card. I love these retired butterflies. My sister sent me some beautiful handmade paper for my birthday so I made the butterfly from it. THe pretty sparkles are in it. The sentiment is also an old one that I don't remember where I got it. Thanks for the fun challenge and also for taking the time to look!

This will be interesting... I've been wanting to try paper piecing after reading a children's book w/ DS which is illustrated ENTIRELY with paper piecing images (it's a pirate book - can you see where I'm going with this?... LOL and lovely to look at!)
Maybe I'll try my hand with a floral or butterfly first... Thanks, Karen!
