Arrow IC111 - Flower Packet [19-Jan-08]

Inspiration Challenge 111 - Flower Packet - IC111

Jen (genie1314) sent me this image awhile ago. It may seem simple, but there is lots of room for interpretation - and inspiration! The original can be found online at wrapables.com.

Make sure you use the keyword: IC111 (no spaces or extra characters)

Here is my sample:
Joyful Birthday

View IC111 Gallery

How to Play 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'! There are no rules, so let your creative juices run wild -- be *inspired* and go 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). Thank you.

Thanks Karen! This inspiration piece made for a fast and simple card. I stayed up late to finish it, then my computer gave me fits and I couldn't upload it anyway. Oh well, I finally got it to work.

Here is my card

Thanks for looking. Have a great weekend.

I knew exactly which stamp would be perfect for this inspiration; but, alas, I didn't have it! So I went another direction. Here's my card -- http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ga...79459?cat=8365

Thanks for giving us a start on Saturday morning, Karen -- and a little more time to do a card in the midst of VSN. Needless to say, this took longer than 45 minutes!

I just hafta say it's always fun when you see the same colors and same set used by a lot of people and yet every card is so unique. Great cards, ladies.

Seed Packets remind me of my friend, Paula, and I wanted to give her a VT gift in a mailbox. So I used the colors of the IC piece to design ONE more mailbox! The seed theme will be the contents inside the box!

Thanx for looking: PAULA'S VT GIFT

This was the perfect inspiration that I needed to make my friends a card.
I made two, one was a sympathy card for my who has a husband home after surgery and the other was a get well card for her husband.
Here they are: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ga...0&ppuser=78347

Default A Great Thing

Thanks for the great challenge! I always have fun when I play! I also usually end up with a card that I wouldn't normally make. I love that! I am not thrilled with today's card, but I fiddled with it too long not to upload! Here is mine:A Great Thing Thanks for looking!
