IC232 ~ Two Lumps of Sugar {05-15-10}
Inspiration Challenge 232 ~ Two Lumps of Sugar
Huge thanks to Anne for hosting the IC while I was traveling through Wisconsin. I’m glad to be back sharing Saturday with you.
This week's SCS Inspiration Challenge was suggested by Arleen (aka arlybeans) after she received some gifts from Two Lumps of Sugar. She thought their products were lovely, colorful & offered lots of variety … I certainly agree.
For those of you who say you get overwhelmed with having too many choices, I’ve uploaded three of my favorites … so just stick with one (or all) of those for your inspiration. The rest of you, remember to link us up to the item from Two Lumps of Sugar that inspired you.
Use the keyword: IC232 (no spaces or extra characters) when you upload your card, and make sure you put commas between your key words.
My sample ~ Botany Blooms
Arleen's First Sample ~ Pink Ribbon Inspiration
Arleen's Second Sample ~ Blue Inspiration
IC232 Gallery
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 on this thread. Thank you for joining me on this inspiration journey.

Welcome Back Stef...missed ya! But I have been so busy and not able to do any challenges...plus health issues with my back. I'm hoping to get to play today. Thanks for the interesting site, right up my alley...been making tote bags like they were going out of style or something.

I'm in! What a wonderful site! It will take me all day to decide my inspiration! But I am looking!
Thank you for the wonderful challenge. Last week was the first time I had done a Saturday inspiration challenge. It was so much fun!

Decided to try by hand at another, Stef! Not only is it a great site...but it is pouring here, so no garden work today. What better way to spend a rainy day than doing IC challenge cards!!! Thanks.

I was inspired by the Sunflower Table Setting...the black and white and sunflowers...mmmmm...love them! I love sunflowers anyway and felt like I needed to make something a little more sunny and elegant...
Here is my card: Inspired Something For You
Hope you like it. I had a lot of fun playing around with creating Joanne Basile's Rolled Flowers and had a lot of fun looking through the Two Lumps of Sugar website for inspiration today. My, my, don't they have a slew of wonderfully beautiful, colorful and happy products? May have to go back and get something to brighten up my house now!
Thanks Stef for a super fun challenge today! I loved it! Now I am off to complete other things before my busy day starts for real
Happy Stampin! God Bless! |
