Here is my card: WishBig, IC747

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, used w/ permission). Unfortunately, we have no control over the sites' viewing areas. **

How to Play ~ View the attached images or visit the site link. 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, please do not use print-outs of the art or items 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.

Amy - Joy of Socks is a Super inspiration Site. My cardmaking mojo has been seriously missing of late but I was determined to change that today. Granted this card took me at least 3 hours longer than it should have but Yea Me ! for getting it to completion . . .

I'm playing my "Challenge Catch-up" cardmaking. This is an anniversary card for my youngest daughter and her husband.

Their website seems to be closed; therefore, I used their Pinterest site. I found these socks for color inspiration: Band Strip Socks for Men!

Here is my card: An Anniversary for January!
