IC841 {The Virginia Living Store} January 15, 2022
Hi, & Welcome to this week's Inspiration Challenge. This week we are headed to The Virginia Living store online seen here.
I came across them by accident one day seeing this red birdhouse here. and I thought to my self with all the birdhouse stamps I own. I do not think I have ever made one be Red... And so I did and as I was digging through my stamps I decided it would be an easy thing to have it do double duty as a Christmas card too. So, you know I know not everyone does that make Christmas cards all year but, I find it easier to make them when the mood strikes me and it does not when its broiling alive hot outside. That's my story & I'm sticking to it. You can also find
the rest of their Pinterest boards start here, Happy Hunting.
Have fun with this, I am looking forward to see what sparks you all. Use the keyword: IC841(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 or store
For those of you who say you get overwhelmed with having too many, or too little, images to choose from, I've uploaded 10 of my favorite designs.
So just stick with one of those for your inspiration.

**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.

Inspired by this antique mason jar penant- I went with a fussy cut walrus image, bringing in flourishes with a repurposed gift bag. Silver borders on the sides to pick up the metallic element- and a stamped sentiment. Here's Walrus Dreams
