In the US July is the most popular time of the year to take a vacation so I thought I would take us vacation souvenir shopping! Zazzle is a HUGE site but I would love it if we focused on Zazzle Souvenirs this week. Imaginary Bonus Points if you choose a souvenir from your state/country OR a destination you wish you could visit this summer! Make sure to let us know why you chose your inspiration photo!
How to Play ~ Click the link to the site we have chosen for this week's inspiration. Take inspiration from a photo that grabs your eye, it could be 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!
For those that don't enjoy browsing through a large site, I have uploaded several of my favorite photos for your inspiration. Click on the images below to see them larger and to get their links on SCS.
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 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.
One of my favorite places to visit- I loved this art deco style depiction of Old Faithful at Yellowstone National Park - I swiped both dark blue and grey ink pads against my paper, adding some spritzed water, then patting it dry. Fussy cut my geyser and sentiment and propped them up with foam dimensional dots. Did a ripped green lower border for grass. Here's Yellowstone

Angela I am so sorry I completely missed the IC yesterday! I really do not know where my head went. However, I had a blast with the website you picked! I chose this one for my inspiration:

I had to teach a class yesterday and then make a trip to the city, when I got home I was so sick to my stomach I went to bed. In other words, I wanted to do this since we live just outside of Yosemite Nat'l Park...I still will try to do it but it will have to be a few days late! Dang!
