Arrow IC181 ~ Little Odd Forest Hand Bags{05-23-09}

Inspiration Challenge 181 ~ Little Odd Forest Hand Bags

Hi All!

Happy Memorial Day Weekend!! Stephanie will be back here next week and has asked me to fill in as host, so here we go!!

This fun website, Little Odd Forest, has lots of goodies, and for this challenge I've focused on the handbags found here. I've attached a few of my favorites below for you to use or feel free to browse the web store and find your own particular inspiration!!

Use the keyword: IC181 (no spaces or extra characters) when you upload your card, and make sure you put commas between your key words.

My sample ~ Little Odd Forest Purse

Link to IC181 Gallery

How to Play ~ View the attached images and/or the featured web store. Get your inspiration from the colors, layout, style or 'theme'. Just enjoy wherever your inspired creative journey takes you. Make the inspiration piece your own. Don't worry ~ no card is 'wrong' and there is no time limit for uploading your card for the challenge. There are no rules, so let your creative juices run wild ~ be *inspired* and go on -- 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). Also, remember to link to your SCS gallery on this thread. Thank you for joining me on this inspiration journey.

I made a really simple card tonight because it is sooooo hot upstairs where I create and my computer wasn't cooperating. Here is my Green Hungry Monster.

Thanks for the challenge!

Very interesting site, Anne. Thanks for filling in. I chose the The Flying Bird Sacchetto (Hibiscus Paradise) for my inspiration

Here's my version -- Hibiscus and Faux Flying Bird

Now I'm going back to bed. I think I caught whatever it is that is floating around.
