Good Saturday Morning & welcome to the first Inspiration Challenge for May! Since we're heading into summer I thought we'd visit a place with some tropical decorations & ideas.
This week's challenge is brought to you by Party Swizzle. They have a lot of really nice home decor pics. They also have a really nice Pinterest Board. So head on over to their site or Pinterest Board, pick your favorite & go create! Please be sure to link us up to what inspired you.
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 visit their Pinterest Board or use one of the pictures provided for you (thumbnails below). Unfortunately, we have no control over the sites' viewing areas. **
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 ~ 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.

NEED HELP GETTING A LINK TO YOUR INSPIRATION PICTURE?
If you are unable to grab the link of your chosen picture, (on some sites, you can't, it only gives a link to the whole collection), hover over the picture in the collection that you want to link to. On a windows machine, right click the picture (on a Mac, 2 finger click). When the options come up, select COPY IMAGE ADDRESS. This link will be for that picture.
I actually have a collection of these in the cupboard from long ago entertaining days. (glass swizzle sticks) so, it was fun to see they had you know the whole decorate for the party items going on too. Here is one from me, thanks for this challenge Julie IC857 Geraniums for Mom by JBgreendawn at Splitcoaststampers

Inspired by the colors of the Cactus Paradise Napkins- and in honor of my mom, who loved yellow flowers, and thought wildflowers picked by her kids were the best! Here's Mother's Day flowers

I used it to make a horse card for one granddaughter. But find me a unicorn sticker or stamp and I'll do another card for her little sister that looks even more like this. Happy Birthday
