Arrow IC112 - Art Print [26-Jan-08]

Inspiration Challenge 112 - Art Print - IC112

SmilynStef sent me this link last week and I just knew I would use it quickly. I really love this funky art! The print is done by Angie Lewin - check out her site for even more cool prints!

Make sure you use the keyword: IC112 (no spaces or extra characters)

My Sample -> Be An Original

View IC112 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.

Really gorgeous colors! Time to go through my stashes of patterned paper it seems. At least this is helping me keep my resolution of actually cutting my patterned paper this year....

Great challenge piece. I really liked working with this image trying to make it my own. Mine is not busy enough but it will have to do. I like the colors

I made the mistake of looking at this challenge before going to bed, which is great by the way Karen. Managed to get four hours of sleep before waking up to just giving into putting this card together....a little crazy I know. So glad today is Saturday - LOL! Anyway, thanks for a great challenge Karen and here's mine:

You're an Original

Thanks for looking and now back to bed.

That is a cool print! And a great inspiration for a card! I'll be gone most of the day, so hopefully I'll be able to create something this evening.

I loved this challenge!! In deed, a challenge! More so because I had so many things pulled out that I thought could be used on the card I couldn't get it down to what exactly I wanted to do with it. So here's what I ended up with: Spring Infuse
Thanks Karen! Very fun!!

The quality of the main image didn't come out well in the photo, but IRL, it is much nicer.

All I can say is - I apologize - so much time trying to salvage it - I could have made two more - but, it is what it is!

Unsalvagable

Thanks for looking!
