Hello all and welcome to this week's Inspiration Challenge! This week we are going to be inspired by a very sweet store with amazing customer service! They went out of their way to help me with an order that I needed right away. So this week you might want to grab your animal stamps and/or dies because I am taking you on a safari, Stuffed Safari, that is! Of course feel free to be inspired any way you wish. You can be inspired by the colors and there are even a few interesting items in the NEW section which I have made sure to include in the thumbnails. I can't wait to see what you create!
If you don't care to browse the entire site or if you can't open the site, I have downloaded a lovely group of photos for your inspiration!

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.

Great site, Angie. So many cute animals....and in a wide price range. I like working from "stores" rather than Pinterest boards....introduces me to companies that I might not otherwise know about. Thanks.

Thanks, Angie. This marbled paper was just laying on top of the stack, already cut to size and fit my snake stamp perfectly. Love it when my muse plays her hand and points the way.
Made for my DD's reference letter thank yous- very CAS for me, but inspired by this plush animal- white tailed deer fawn. Used an aqua painter and my blender pen for that watercolored effect. Here's Deer thank you
