Arrow IC203 ~ Anthropologie {10-24-09}

Inspiration Challenge 203 ~ Anthropologie

This week’s Inspiration Challenge comes from the always inspiring store … Anthropologie. Every time I look at their website, catalog, or have the rare chance to actually visit a store, I find myself surrounded by inspiration. My guess is your biggest challenge will be choosing only one thing to inspire you.

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 item from Anthropologie that inspired you.

Use the keyword: IC203 (no spaces or extra characters) when you upload your card, and make sure you put commas between your key words.

My sample ~ Paint-By-Flower inspired by Paint-By-Number Dessert Plate

IC203 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.

I'm excited as this is one of my favorite stores. When we got a store at my local mall I jumped for joy. Maybe I can get something done tonight as I'm gone all day tomorrow. Thanks, Stef!

Wow - this one was hard for me, not sure why.....but I wandered around on that site for a long time and finally came up with this:

http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ga...214?&cat=12243

I tried to link the Jungle Bag under eccentric accessories to my card but not sure if I did it correctly or NOT. Hope you like it!! Off to bed!!

Thanks, Stef, for another interesting site for our inspiration this week. I've been making Christmas cards, so I had to find something that could translate into a Christmas card. Here's my Anthropologie Christmas card.

This didn't turn out quite like I hoped - here it is anyway.
Fun site - love some of those bags!!
Having trouble linking to my inspiration, which was the Woodland Stamps in the Hobbies and Leisure section.
