Hi, & Welcome to this week's Inspiration Challenge. Where we are headed to Nature Fine Art Photos because, a few weeks ago now I was thinking I needed to play with my horse stamps. ( I am still sorting my stamp collection) and I happened across this photography site ( it is not a huge site and I have included 15 samples for you to see here) What I like about photography art as far as for inspiration for stamping is, you already have one change right off the bat because,converting from a photograph makes it really an "inspired" by thing in my head and that makes me happy. So, the horse stamp I wanted to play with, I never did come across anything that resembled it but, I have a whole box of horse stamps and could still play and I took a regular horse stamp and colored it inspired by the painted horse in the first thumbnail below.
Have fun with this, I am looking forward to see what sparks you all.

For those of you who say you get overwhelmed with having too many, or too little, images to choose from, I've uploaded 15 of my favorite designs.
So just stick with one (or all) of those for your inspiration.

**Please note: If you are unable to view the Inspiration Site in your country, please use one of the pictures provided for you (thumbnails below). Unfortunately, we have no control over the sites' viewing areas. ** 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 post in this thread. Thanks for Joining along with us!
If you would like the chance to guest design with us, simply PM one of the IC hostesses with a site that has not been used before. If your site is selected we will send you a PM with all the details for your week as Guest Designer!
NEED HELP GETTING A LINK TO YOUR INSPIRATION PICTURE? Since so many are having trouble grabbing the link to just one picture, please try this:
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.
