Hello,

Welcome to Inkspirational Challenge #366. For the next two weeks (April 25 – May 8), we’re inviting you to find inspiration in our new Word Prompt: RAIN.

From soft drizzles to thunderstorms to  puddles + boots to umbrellas + rain jackets and everything in between, this prompt can be interpreted in a variety of ways. We know the saying: “April showers bring May flowers." Let's celebrate those rainy days and see where they take your creativity! 


How cute is this fashionista sheep (Simply Stated Design's Cute Sheep ephemera), dressed in the most adorable rain outfit ever! 
She's ready for some stylish splishing-and-splashing through the puddles.

Just Us Girls Challenge #820 - Stencil Week - A Little Something To Make You Smile (Beautifully Imperfect - SB)

Hello,

Welcome to Just Us Girls Challenge #820, where Vicki is hostess for our ever popular Anything Goes Stencil Week. 


Once again, we're delighted to have Rosemary joining us as our April Guest Designer.

Patterned paper + stenciling with paste = a first time combination for me.
I'm okay with how this turned out. It is, as this Spellbinders' paper collection name suggests, "beautifully imperfect'.  
Hope it makes you smile.

Looking forward to seeing you in the gallery.

Hello,

Welcome to Colour Hues Challenge #131, where our hostess, Sheri, invites us to play with hues of Coral and Green for the next two weeks.  This cheery combination is lovely, especially during Spring.

Looking forward to seeing how Coral and Green inspire you.

The challenge will be open until April 29th @ 9:00 am (EST).
