You're currently viewing Splitcoaststampers as a GUEST.

You can join our incredible papercrafting community at NO COST. So what are you waiting for?
This week�s Inspiration Challenge comes from a site that celebrates � Everything Turquoise (please only use images from the Turquoise site & don�t venture to other colors).
For those of you who say you get overwhelmed with having too many choices, I�ve uploaded five of my favorites � so just stick with one (or all) of those for your inspiration.
The rest of you, remember to let us know which item from Everything Turquoise that inspired you.
I asked Gabby (gabalot) to join me this week in making some additional sample designs.
Use the keyword: IC321 (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. Remember, if you are inspired by the creation of another artist, please do not use print-outs of the art in your creation or directly copy their work. 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.
Hope to play tomorrow between helping my DD study her Spanish standards and Chemistry and DS's basketball game . . . and helping them both take care of their pets, and whatever else. ;) Remember when weekends were for sleeping and playing?
Love this site, Stef. Son and future DIL just came in from college for weekend (yes - at 2:39 a.m.), so I took time to check it out. I have saved 3 things I would like to use as my inspiration - but may not have time to play until Monday morning after the kids have gone back to campus. Until then - happy stamping everyone

LOVE this week's challenge. Turquoise is my favorite color (though it's nearly IMPOSSIBLE to spell in English!) and I found soooo much inspiration on that blog. I finally chose THIS one.
What an inspiring site ....thanks Stef I found some fabulous bedding in the scrolling photo gallery at the bottom of the page but when I clicked on it to copy the link it the site took me to a different photo...sorry :confused: Anyway, I hope you'll recognize the bedding that inspired my card and I think I'll have another go with one of the pics you selected...they are all gorgeous!! Inspired by turqouise bedding by daisynook - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers
I was inspired by the Aqua Wildflowers Mini Journal but used a cherry blossom style flower motif in my card, and added some embossing for texture.
Here's my Party Owl
