IC208 ~ Oliebollen {11-28-09}
Inspiration Challenge 208 ~ Oliebollen
This week’s Inspiration Challenge comes from the whimsical children’s store Oliebollen that was suggested by Barbarar20. Oliebollen is a small mother owned company where everything is created with a sense of fun. I can’t wait to see the fun creations it inspires. And while you’re there, don’t forget to check out their free garland & holiday gift tag downloads.
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 Oliebollen that inspired you.
Use the keyword: IC208 (no spaces or extra characters) when you upload your card, and make sure you put commas between your key words.
Barbarar20’s sample ~ Ribbon Lion inspired by Big Top Circus Lion Pull Toy
My sample ~ Robot Love inspired by French Bull Robot Juice Cups
IC208 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.

Whew! Finally, I just finished up a tote bag for my SS...check it out!
My boys decided they were too tired to play tonight. They have been helping me reorganize my room. They said I have TOO much stuff.

Missing the challenge again...
Oh Stephanie, I don't know how I will survive this week-end missing my IC again. Well, it's your IC, but when I do it. It's mine. 
I have a little arts & crafts show going on, but will be sure to make it this week. You know I can't go on without it!
Beautiful and fun website, I love your son's birthday card!
Have a magnificent day everybody!
Hugs,peggy |

Last month I had the opportunity to work a stamp show in Albuquerque, NM. Afterwards, I was blessed to spend a few days with a life-long girlfriend. I finally met her darling 11-year old granddaughter, who quickly fell in love with stamping .... courtesy of "me". 
Well, when I saw this item at Oliebollen, it was easy to use it as inspiration for:
