IC709 {7/6/19} Hometalk🇺🇸

[justwritedesigns]

Good Saturday Morning & welcome to the Inspiration Challenge! It's my pleasure to be your hostess today. I hope you all had a wonderful July 4th!

Today's site can be a real rabbit hole, so be warned. I could have wandered around in there for days, checking out all the fab DIY projects. So head on over to Hometalk, pick a thing or three & go create! Please be sure to link us up to what inspired you.

Here's my card: Seashore Wreath

Did you know, we have an Inspiration Challenge Pinterest Board? Be sure to check it out!

For those of you who say you get overwhelmed with having too many, or too little, images to choose from, & since some sites have limited viewing areas, I've uploaded MANY images to help inspire you. 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.

**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 ~ 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 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.

just wanted to let you know when I want to click an image it's asked to enter email or face book, that's why I've chosen from your uploaded pictures, I don't know if this is the same in the US.

Well, Julie, housework WAS on the agenda for today BUT this website calls my name WAY too loudly and I have a feeling I will be sucked down the rabbit hole you spoke of for the foreseeable future!!! In the meantime - Here's my card:

No, I don't see that here, Anita. I do remember the first time I went there, a box said to enter the info if I wanted ideas. I just clicked "No" & it never showed up again.

My card today was inspired by a tyre planter

[Crafty Julia]

What a great site! I was inspired by the Rustic Fall Centerpiece- I used a relatively new stamp set, doing some coloring with markers and blurring and blending the colors with my aqua painter. Added some texture with stitching among the stems, and attached a button/twine bow combo. Here's woodsy arrangement

[MiamiKel4]

Thanks for a great inspiration site, Julie!

Here is my: Lucky Pup

I didn't have time on the weekend to make a card but had looked through the website. As soon as I saw today's Color Challenge, I knew exactly what piece from the inspiration I wanted to use as it worked perfectly with today's colours! Here's my card:
