IC260 ~ The Country Porch {11-27-10}
3 Attachment(s)
Hi All!
Thanks to Stephanie for asking me to step in and host this week! Always my pleasure!! I don't know about you, but everything around my house is kicking into high gear for the Christmas celebration that's just around the corner! I wanted to find a website to help inspire the kind of crafting you want to do if you're "holed up" in your warm, crafting space at home or just trying to find some ideas for your holiday cards! The website this week is "The Country Porch"; a wonderful on-line store with "a blend of all things country to create a home for the heart!" They favor a wide range of homespun decorative items in Americana, country plaids, checks, European country, farm style, log cabin, lodge, patriotic, primitive, retro, toile, vintage and romantic cottage styles! Browse around and enjoy your visit through "The Country Porch." Be sure to click on the links within the links, there are hidden suprises everywhere you turn! Can't wait to see the inspiration items you find there! Use keyword IC260 (no spaces or extra characters) when you upload your card, and make sure you put commas between your key words. My sample ~ Holiday Snow-globe :arrow: Quick Link to IC260 Gallery How to Play ~ View the attached sample images and/or browse the suggested website. Get your inspiration from the the individual items, patterns, themes or color schemes. Just enjoy wherever your inspired and creative journey takes you. Make the inspiration piece your own! Don't worry ~ no card is 'wrong'! There is no time limit for uploading your card for the challenge and there are no rules. So let your creative juices run wild ~ be *inspired* to create, have fun, and share your artwork!! 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.[/SIZE] Helpful links: What is the Inspiration Challenge?

This was such a delightful website Anne. I was not only inspired to make a card, I wanted to purchase several items. Of course, I won't this close to Christmas because it might cut into my funds for stamping. Hee! Hee!
