Hello all, Kia here with you for this week's Inspiration Challenge. It has been a rough week, so I hope you have fun with the challenge today.

I am welcoming you all to Canada once again, to my favourite magazine, Canadian Living, or if you prefer to Canadian Living Pinterest.

I fount a lot of inspiration, so I think you will enjoy the site. Be sure when you post that you link us up with your inspiration pick.

Did you know, we have an Inspiration Challenge Pinterest Board? Be sure to check it out!

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 go to 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 or visit the site link. 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, please do not use print-outs of the art or items 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.

Wonderful site, Kia.

Quiet Forest

[Crafty Julia]

Great site Kia- thank you! I was inspired by these pastel donuts on a cooling rack- this card gave me a chance to repurpose a striped thank you card border and a plastic to go cup with white stars. Added lots of bling to my donuts, and altered my stamped sentiment to make it my own. Used black crosshatch paper as my background to mimic the cooling rack. Here's Big Day Donuts

Fun site Kia. Gorgeous pictures and yummy food. I think I gained weight just scrolling through the pictures. Thanks for the challenge. Here's my card:

Hearts & Flowers in Toronto by DebbieinOC at Splitcoaststampers

[Chatterbox-1]

I am working toward my "Challenge Catch-Up" goal! This card is for an Alpha friend who needs a Hug! and is the Teapot recipient for the week of 7.5.22.

I chose this bathing suit because of its colors & flowers, which affirmed that these or similar colors would be perfect for the Artistic Die stenciled flowers that I planned. I found the swimsuit on Canadian Living: “10 Stylish Swimsuits that Flatter Your Figure": a right click on the swimsuit picture led me a better picture of this same suit at this URL address: Junie Swimsuit in Gardenia!]

Here is my card: Hugs for Kandie!
