IC258 ~ Company C {11-13-10}

Inspiration Challenge 258 ~ Company C

This week's Inspiration Challenge comes from the wonderful home wares of Company C. Started in a garage by Chris and Walter Chapin in 1994, Company C is now a premier design studio and leading producer of exceptional home furnishings, all infused with their passion for color.

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 let us know which product from Company C that inspired you (I don�t think you can link to the actual pictures, so just let us know the Category).

I asked Vicky Gould to join me this week in making an additional IC sample.

Use the keyword: IC258 (no spaces or extra characters) when you upload your card, and make sure you put commas between your key words.

Vicky Gould�s Sample ~ Company C

My sample ~ Zelda Snowflake Tag

IC258 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.

I chose the Holiday Tradition pillow as my inspiration for this tag:
HOLIDAY TRADITION TAG
I had some scraps laying on my table so I started with that and stamped the image of Christmas Collage by SU! on GPW then cut the piece I wanted to use and adhered it to Real Red cs. I added cording, punched a sentiment with the Word Window Punch and added a Making Memories Poinsettia with brad.
