Good Saturday Morning and a big welcome to the Inspiration Challenge!
It was great to find this site, Hayneedle, in a magazine I was browsing through in a doctor's office. I think you'll find a lot of inspiration here. I found so much when I clicked on "styles" and "wall art"...just my thing, I suppose. I really look forward to seeing your awesome creations. So, ready, set, GO!
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.

I found 20 pictures that inspired me - seriously! I have one card done, but no time to post as I have to go pack for a trip to the beach. Will be back tomorrow night and post it and comment. Thanks Brenda - this was a great site (I even found a few things I want to purchase). Hugz

I'm so sorry this site is blocked for some of you (UK). I really don't understand that. Hope you can use some of the samples I showed.

I loved the wall art- and I was inspired by the Good Morning Sunshine wall art- and went rather abstract with my strips of paper to create my scene. Added simple embellishment with my washi tape border and 2 mini bronze brads. Here'socean shore

I love this site Brenda...so much to choose! I knew I wanted to use my new Mother's Day Brushos watercolor powders, but need an idea of how to use the colors. I chose this inspiration, which told me a vertical application of two colors would look great: https://www.hayneedle.com/product/re...ecorbymaxe.cfm
I needed a second graduation card for my niece, so decided to use Hayneedle again for a second color choice. I chose this inspiration, which told me my red and yellow Brushos were going to look great in the same veritcal design as my first card: https://www.hayneedle.com/product/lo...vaswallart.cfm
This will be my second Hayneedle inspired card, which is for my DD#!'s birthday! I've ultimately used three wall art canvases to get my mojo going for her card: A Birthday with Lots of Technique! I've added the three links in my card description and explained my process for those that might be interested in my multiple challenges for a card!
