Arrow IC670 {10/6/18} The Photo Argus

Good Saturday Morning & welcome to the Inspiration Challenge

I came across this fabulous photo site recently & knew it would be perfect as an Inspiration site. The photos are simply gorgeous! Click on any of the titles and you'll also see many more like the one under the title. This week's challenge is brought to you by The Photo Argus! It's a site packed with gorgeousness! Be inspired by the pictures, the colors, the scenery..you name it. You can also use the search bar to hunt for things like "flower" or "autumn", etc. Head on over & pick something that appeals to you. Be sure to link us up to what inspired you.

IC670 Gallery

Use Keyword: IC670

Here's my card: Give Thanks

Did you know, we have an Inspiration Challenge Pinterest Board? Be sure to check it out! (It's brand new!!)

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.

Fabulous site, Julie. I love the photo of the little girl standing on a ladder appearing to hold up the moon. Here's my card inspired by that photo, Punkin Kitty's Halloween.

I may be back later with another card inspired by the same photo!!

I am playing a little challenge catch-up as I do each week! My inspiration this week was the mountain lake picture of Upper Cathedral Lake in Yosemite National Park, California. Here is the link: A Simple Guide to Photographing Big Mountains - The Photo Argus. It is the 5th picture down on this page.

Here is my card: Sunshine on a Serene Scene!
