Arrow IC183 ~ Design Dazzle {06-06-09}

Inspiration Challenge 183 ~ Design Dazzle

Design Dazzle is a fun website featuring decorating ideas for and design inspiration for babies, kids, & teens. There are hundreds of pictures of different decorating styles.

For those of you who say you get overwhelmed with having too many choices, I have uploaded three of my favorite rooms & linked to the room that inspired my card… so just stick with one (or all) of those for your inspiration.

For the rest of you, feel free to use anything from the Design Dazzle website for your inspiration. Just remember to link us to the room or item that inspired you.

Use the keyword: IC83 (no spaces or extra characters) when you upload your card, and make sure you put commas between your key words.

My sample ~ Barn Mod inspired by Barn Mod Crib Bedding

IC83 Gallery


How to Play ~ View the attached images. You may be inspired to recreate the pieces ~ but that isn't necessary ... 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 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.

Ohhh, looks like this is a really fun site. I have been so busy with camps with the kids, swimming, and sports. I'm not sure if I'll be able to play, but will try.

Wow - so much wonderful inspiration there.
Not very happy with my Dazzling Tree, but unless I have time when we get back from my aunt's this evening, it's as good as it gets. Hope there's time to try another room - there were so many that caught my eye .

Great challenge, I really liked the rooms that we could choose from. I made two cards for today's challenge. I'll be back later to leave some comments; we're getting ready to take the kids out for the day and maybe Chucky Cheese.

Anyway, here are my cards for today:
