IC98 - Painted Gourd [20-Oct-07]
Inspiration Challenge 98 - Painted Gourd - IC98
This beautiful gourd was done by Maria Dellos. The gourds were a suggestion by Christine aka Chrisations.ink and more gourds can be found at I Brake for Stamps.
How to Play View the attached image. You may be inspired to recreate the piece - but that isn't necessary...get your inspiration from the colors, layout, or 'theme'. Don't worry - no card is 'wrong'! 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). Thank you.
This is amazing. Can't wait to play. Thanks for the inspirations.

I love my card - don't often say that. Jerri Kay was kind enough to stamp the image for me! I so wanted this for my son's birthday. Unfortunately, as was the case yesterday, the card is not showing up in the challenge gallery. But, I did the challenge - went with the warm earth tones!
Thanks Karen and Christine. What an awesome inpiration piece. Here is mine...it looks sorta crooked...maybe it is! It musta been in a sword fight with Russell!
Great challenge Karen! Thank you! The gourds are beautiful and are a wonderful inspiration. I had fun with this one and I got to try something new, I made my first tag punch flower! Here it is and I hope you like it! TFL!

Talk about Inspiration... I have to teach a lesson tomorrow in church and one of the stories that I am using in entitled "The Cracked Pot" (One of my Favorite Inspirational Stories.) Also, the painted gourds and Indian Pottery are among my favorite things to decorate with. (Doesn't go to well here in New England...) Anyway, they remind me of where I grew up roaming the hills of South Central Utah. So... Here is my card or book, as it turned out to be, For the Inspiration Challenge today. If you would like a copy of the story you can check out my blog or PM me and I will send you a copy in an email.
