Good Saturday Morning & welcome to the Inspiration Challenge
Since I very recently moved, I find I'm looking at a lot of decorating sites, soaking in ideas for my new place. This week's challenge is brought to you by Theme Rooms! It's a blog packed with ideas & fun decorating themes. Down the right side bar, you'll see the posts arranged by theme. Head on over & pick something that appeals to you. Be sure to link us up 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 (or more) 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 ~ 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 us on this inspiration journey.
NEED HELP LINKING A CARD? FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Open 2 windows. One for your card, one for this thread. 2. In this thread, click on reply and type what you want to show before the link. 3. Go to your card window, highlight the address for your card. (The address bar will say //www.splitcoaststampers.com/fo...stampers.....). 4. Click edit. Click Copy. 5. Go back to this thread. Click Paste.
NEED HELP GETTING A LINK TO YOUR INSPIRATION PICTURE?
If you are unable to grab the link of your chosen picture, (on some sites, you can't, it only gives a link to the whole collection), hover over the picture in the collection that you want to link to. On a windows machine, right click the picture (on a Mac, 2 finger click). When the options come up, select COPY IMAGE ADDRESS. This link will be for that picture.
Lovely site, Julie. I'm working on Easter cards and always make a special one for dear friends...your site gave me the inspiration that I needed. Thanks.
Thanks for a great site, Julie. I always find myself shopping instead of cardmaking when I'm on a site like this.....lol! I actually did find a great idea for a problem I've been trying to solve in my recenlty reno'd bathroom.
Julie what a wonderful website, I could sit and look at this one all day long! I had made one yesterday, but I had to throw it in the garbage - so last night I half way made another one, (Giggles) this morning got it finished. So I am late. I chose this for my inspiration:

I saw your post in the Dirty Dozen thread and came to lend a little support to a great, great challenge. Here is my card: JHC Drip Drop by naturecoastcrafter - at Splitcoaststampers
I think you can tell which picture was my inspiration but I thumbnailed it anyway!

Thanks so much, Jean! We're so happy you could join us & I love the pic you chose!
The Theme Rooms is filled with great decorating ideas...such wonderful inspiration. I chose the Romantic Bedroom Ideas�the very first picture of a lady in a softy frilly boudoir with lovely colors and feminine flowery walls, canopy, and bedding�the colors were perfect for my card!
