Inspiration Challenge 207 ~ aimoobaroo

This week’s Inspiration Challenge comes from the fabulous fabric buttons of aimoobaroo. I loved all of the fabulous sets … so many great images, colors, and textures.

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 aimoobaroo that inspired you.

Use the keyword: IC207 (no spaces or extra characters) when you upload your card, and make sure you put commas between your key words.

My samples ~ Roll With It … inspired by Yummy Sushi (Small) Fabric Covered Boutique Buttons

IC207 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.

Oh - gorgeous. I am no less tired than last Saturday, but this one looks like such fun. And not just the buttons themselves, but the way they are laid out, too - a real feast for my eyes. Thanks, Stef.
