IC188 ~ Chasing Fireflies {07-11-09}
This week’s very fun inspiration site was suggested by Stamp Muse. She loves their catalog … and their website too … Chasing Fireflies.
For those of you who say you get overwhelmed with having too many choices, I have uploaded three of my favorites … so just stick with one (or all) of those for your inspiration. For the rest of you, remember to link us up to the page/item from Chasing Fireflies that inspired you.
Use the keyword: IC188 (no spaces or extra characters) when you upload your card, and make sure you put commas between your key words.
My sample ~ Messages from the Heart
Stamp Muse’s samples ~ Lil' Cowpoke ~ Pom Pom Cupcake ~ Cat on a Hot Tin Roof
IC188 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.

What an adorable site! I enjoyed looking at all the darling children's clothing/costumes. I was inspired by two items...
First item of inspiration... Alien costume
Second item of inspiration... Alien Hoodie
And here's my card... Greetings, Earthling! |

Steph, I love the IC each week and always hope to have time to play. We just returned from a day in Hollywood and an evening at the Hollywood Bowl but I couldn't wait to log on to see what you cooked up for us. Now, I am too tired to stamp. Watch for me tomorrow ladies.

This is such a cool site! I fell asleep last night looking at it. I wanted to see it ALL. I woke up and looked some more. LOL! I have 3 inspirations picked out, my colored images, my dp and my layouts. I'll have time later to make my cards.  |

Cool site, Stef. Thanks, Stamp Muse, for the suggestion. I chose San Francisco Row Birdhouses as my inspiration.
Here's my version -- Birdhouse Row. |

Chasing Fireflies--the name of this website is just delightful! It's just as much fun as Bugaloo--where DO they get these names?

For the Birds
Hmm - still needs something, but I can't think what, and I need to tidy my desk more than I need to think about what else to do with this.

Here are some easy little cards that I made completely from scraps.
I used the QUILT thumbnail in the post as my inspiration.
I also pulled out a fun little stamp set that I had not even mounted yet. It gave me the idea for doing multiple cards.
Happy Weekend and TFL!!
