Ok - so I made the mistake of looking for the inspiration challenge at midnight - and now it's 1:30 am and I'm loading my card!!!
Stef gave us pics of a lovely bedroom to be inspired by and I chose this picture (check out the door panels reflected in the mirror or seen behind the chair - that's what inspired me.) here: Forums at Splitcoaststampers
This is a 6x6 card to accomodate these large Asian panel stamps by Stamp Oasis - the one on the left is called Spring and the one on the right is Fall.
I used my new narrow rectangle nestabilities to create the woodwork framing (see, I DID need to get those!) and some SU hardware brads for the door knobs (Thanks LeAnne!)
I used Color Box ice blue chalk ink on Very Vanilla with Buckaroo Blue panels. It's all mounted on a piece of speckled vanilla that was in an SU designer 12 x 12 pack.
This is a very simple card but I love the way it came out - just like I envisioned it - I love when that happens - don't you!!??

Very pretty, Julia. This is a perfect take on the IC piece. I like the hardware and embossing!

oh my, FANTASTIC, Julia!!! I love the panels, and I think I'm in trouble (Stamp Oasis...never heard of 'em till now!!!) I like the woodwork with the embossing and YES you truly NEEDED those long tall sallies. GREAT challenge, and I hope you're sleeping in!!!
