Splitcoaststampers.com - the world's #1 papercrafting community
You're currently viewing Splitcoaststampers as a GUEST. We pride ourselves on being great hosts, but guests have limited access to some of our incredible artwork, our lively forums and other super cool features of the site! You can join our incredible papercrafting community at NO COST. So what are you waiting for?
This week�s inspiration is a cool on-line store called Skeem, whose saying is �it�s better to light a candle than curse the darkness.� Their silkscreen candle and perfume designs are amazing (and my guess is they probably smell even better than they look). There are a lot of different choices to inspire you.
For those of you who say you get overwhelmed with having too many choices, I have uploaded three of my favorites from the website� so just stick with one (or all) of those for your inspiration. For the rest of you, feel free to use anything from Skeem for your inspiration � just provide a link, so we can all see what inspired you.
Use the keyword: IC176 (no spaces or extra characters) when you upload your card, and make sure you put commas between your key words.
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.
Hmmm, just got home from stamp camp and had no mojo there. I'll see what I can come up with tonight.

I'm going to have to try tomorrow sometime. I am just not feeling well. My heels have been hurting me so much and I have a headache. It's weird though, my heels don't hurt while working out...its just afterwards.
I can't wait to see what everyone creates.
Have a wonderful night!

Oh Karen I am there with you!! I should know better. But this was an interesting one Stef. You really stretched my brain this week. Thanks!! (I think!)
I loved all those botanical-inspired candles - but went with the bird design in the end. Off to dig some more of my vegetable bed before I come back to comment... Spring Song ATC
