IC833 {Pinterest Lighthouses Board} November 20, 2021
Hi, & Welcome to this week's Inspiration Challenge. This week we are headed to a board filled with Lighthouse images simply because, for many years the PSX Peggy's Cove stamp has been on my wish list ( my oldest sister in law whose birthday is next week) is named Peggy. and I finally was lucky enough to find one in the affordable range. :mrgreen:
So, I picked this particular shot because, it has colors close to the real Peggy's cove. On another note, once a year I do a card booth in a school around the corner from my house. Day one is the 19th and day 2 is the 20th... It is probable that I will not see what you all have chosen to do with this challenge until Sunday afternoon.
Have fun with this, I am looking forward to see what sparks you all. Use the keyword: IC833(no spaces or extra characters) when you upload your card, and make sure you put commas between your key words. Include your inspiration image in the description of your project being sure to only include links from The pinterest board
Use the Keyword IC833 Here is a link to the IC711 Gallery
For those of you who say you get overwhelmed with having too many, or too little, images to choose from, I've uploaded 16 of my favorite designs.
So just stick with one 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 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, 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 post in this thread. Thanks for Joining along with us! If you would like the chance to guest design with us, simply PM one of the IC hostesses with a site that has not been used before. If your site is selected we will send you a PM with all the details for your week as Guest Designer!
NEED HELP GETTING A LINK TO YOUR INSPIRATION PICTURE? Since so many are having trouble grabbing the link to just one picture, please try this:
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 was probably influenced more by "light" than the actual lighthouse images. Hanukkah begins shortly after Thanksgiving and I needed to get a few of those cards made. Thanks for the "light" source, Stacy. : )
I love lighthouses. I chose the following photo for it's magical quality, which I wanted to emulate in a birthday card for my only granddaughter. https://www.pinterest.ca/pin/2392606035847872/
