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?
Hello everyone! I really missed you a lot last week, but had to handle some family matters and an unexpected loss. In any event, I'm back this week hoping to be able to do some paper crafting with you, which will definitely boost my spirits! I've selected an inspiration site that is jam packed with "yummy-ness", leveraging one of my favorite holiday season sites; the Harry and David website! We were inspired by their site about 2 years ago, so this will be our "Take 2"! Perhaps you'll pick up a few goodies this time, or just simply enjoy crafting a uniquely yummy paper project! Whichever, I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
Challenge Goals: Please don't be tempted to upload a card that you have made prior to this challenge, just because an image on the board reminds you of it - this is all about creating from an inspiration. :cool: So, please take the challenge of allowing your creative juices to flow based on the images you browse this week. Remember, it can just be the color palette or style that ignites your creativity. Whatever draws you to the designs, take the challenge of doing something uniquely inspired today.
Please remember that all inspiration links should be inspired by the Harry and David website. Remember that your card might also end up on my Ongoing Inspiration Genius Board too, especially if it shows signs of extra deep inspiration! (smiles)
Use the keyword: IC560 (no spaces or extra characters) when you upload your card, and make sure you put commas between your key words.
For those of you who say you get overwhelmed with having too many images to choose from, I've uploaded 10 of my favorites. So just stick with one (or all) of those for your inspiration. Click on the images below to see them bigger and to get their links on SCS. Don't forget to let us know which photo served as your inspiration piece please.
Oh no. So sorry for your loss. Keeping you in prayers. Off to see this neat site. Crafting just like chocolate always is a huge help. Ty.

Oh, sweet Audrie, I'm so sorry for your unexpected loss, but it's so nice to have you back. We missed you! Thanks for a fun inspiration site today - lots of wonderful things to see.
Inspired by the beautiful Harvest Apple Wreath- used a nice fall border, adding some patterned dps for fun. Finished with a brad/twine combo. Here's fall colors

Thank you everyone for every thing you do! You condolences as well as the fabulous cards you posted. I'm catching up on comments, please excuse any delays on the comments. I'm getting back into the swing of things, but I'm a bit slow this week.
I'm so sorry for your loss, but just remember our loved ones are never truly gone since they are permanently in our hearts and memories. I hope this thought will bring you some comfort.
