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 our journey is into the beautiful world of baskets! I've selected almost 200 basket pins which have a diversity of styles textures and colors to inspire your creativity! I'm hoping as you browse the gorgeous products and images on the Beautiful Baskets Pinterest Board that you will be as motivated to create something awesome for someone special as I was!
Goals:
Please don't be tempted to upload a card that you have made prior to this challenge, just because it looks like an image on the site. :cool: Rather, take the challenge of allowing your creative juices to flow again, and creating something brand new for the gallery!
Use the keyword: IC599 (no spaces or extra characters) when you upload your card, and make sure you put commas between your key words. Include your inspiration image in the description of your project being sure to only include links from our inspiration site authored by the Beautiful Baskets Pinterest Board. I will normally pin at least 5 projects to my Ongoing Inspiration Genius Awards Board if you include a link to what inspired you.
For those of you who say you get overwhelmed with having too many, or too little, images to choose from, I've uploaded 5 of my favorite designs! 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.
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.
I apologize for the late posting, I am still at work this evening and will be working overnight. I'll be back online at SCS in the morning. This is an unusual situation where I am helping out another team with an urgent incident. My sincere apologies again for being so late!
Thanks for another great board Audrie....get some rest!;) My card was inspired by the colors in one of the baskets. Off to get a few things done before I take an 8 year old on a picnic :p
My apologies for uploading my inspired projects this morning rather than last night. They were loads of fun to do! I feel in deep love with these baskets for my inspiration:
Audrie this is another wonderful website!! I didn't have white to use on my burlap, so left that part brown, but I did try to use this as my inspiration:

I totally sleep all day yesterday but I'm digging into this gorgeous gallery today. You all really amaze me with your imagination and creativity.....no matter what challenges I have, it always makes my week better to see the many inspirations you have.
Awesome gallery and inspiration. I started on Saturday but I'm just finishing today. So anyway, here is my take on the challenge: Masculine Birthday.
I'll be back later to see all the awesome creations in the gallery!
