INSPIRED BY - #IB200 WE ARE INSPIRED BY YOU

Happy Thursday! 

We are so excited to share our 200th Inspired By Challenge with you...and do we have a fun way to celebrate!

                           

The challenge is to create a card,  inspired by one of the winners from this year. Share with us, which card got your creative juices flowing! Please click HERE to view our CHALLENGE WINNER FOR 2021. We can't wait to see your ideas!



My card was inspired by the #IB183 Winner Betty Wright..... 


I adore Betty's colorful & sparkly design. I tried to put my own twist on it by creating a Christmas card. 

For this card I used the fabulous Concord & 9th Tiny Tree Bundle. I used some fun bright colors like Betty did and chose... PTI - Pure Poppy, Bright Buttercup, New Leaf and Hawaiian Shore. Next I added  the PTI - Say it Simply: You & Yours Die using the Gold Glitter CS

Please stop by the INSPIRED BY BLOG to find out all the details on how you can play along....and of course check out the teams take on this challenge!

Wishing you a wonderful Christmas and a healthy happy new 2022. Looking forward to seeing you in the New Year! ~SL~

TIC TAC TOE CHALLENGE - #TTTC143 CELEBRATE

Hello again!

I'm back with a card for this weeks Tic Tac Toe Challenge - #TTTC143...



I'm also the Featured Designer for this weeks #TTTC143 board...


My card is featuring the top left diagonal  - HEART, RIBBON AND BANNER. 

For this card I grabbed some leftover Design Paper along with my SU - Heart Dies. My card base was embossed with an older Cuttlebug Heart Embossing Folder. Before completely assembling the card I added a Doily, the Gingham Ribbon and the PTI - Notched Hearts Banner Die. At last I added the sentiment and the some medium Silver Pearls.

Now it's your turn....swing by the Tic Tac Toe Challenge Blog to see the entire teams creation! ~SL~

INSPIRED BY - #IB199C WARM WINTER

Happy Thursday!

I'm stopping by with a card for the newest Inspired By Challenge......


Here is one of the inspiration photo's I've used - #IB199 and this weeks Sketch......

                                


 I was inspired by the colors (Kraft, White & Black), the gingerbread man/cookies and this weeks Sketch. 

I decided to pull out another "oldie but goodie" from Flourishes. My card is pretty straight forward...I stamped the Gingerbread images on my card base and added the Santa Cookies on a cut out Circled Die. Next I added the Ribbon and that's it.

Don't forget to check out all the fabulous ideas from the rest of the team!!! Hope we have inspired you to play along? ~SL~

INSPIRED BY - #IB198C WINTER BEAUTY

Happy December!

We are back with a brand new Inspired By Challenge.....


Here is the inspiration photo I chose this week...#IB198.... plus the bonus Sketch....

 

I was inspired by the snowflake and the Sketch. 

My color inspiration came from this weeks Color Throwdown #671.....Pink, Grey, Silver and White.


For this card I dug out one of my retired Flourishes Snowflakes Set and added another retired Papertrey Ink Snowflake Set. I started out with a SU - Blushing Bride CS and stamped the snowflakes with SU - Pretty In Pink Ink. The center snowflake was embossed with some Silver EP. I decided to "distress" the White & Grey CS. At last I added the sentiment, a Grey Ribbon and added some small and medium Silver Pearls in the center of the various stamped snowflakes.

Ok...now it's your turn! Please don't forget to swing by the Inspired By Challenge Blog to enter your card and of course to check out the entire teams idea! Wishing you a fabulous day! ~SL~
