Inkspirations Inspiration Challenge # 18….
YAY!
I have this computer working,….I tell ya I am doing a very big happy dance in my swivel chair, which actually does amazing slides across the tiled floor as I have some great tunes from Florence and the machine (a band) cranking on my iPod!!!! Sooooo very excited that I have this blogging all sorted now…..hope you can visualize it
Anyhooooo, even though most of you have seen this post on the wonderful (and I really mean WONDERFUL, DT crew’s blogs this past week) Heck you prolly had your creations made days ago and have been waiting (very patiently) for me to post the Mr Linky! If you are, well your wait is over cuz here it is for ya!
Oh and I have a wee little creation to share too! I have to tell ya though, my stamping was soooooo rusty after not stamping for, oh about 6 weeks! I made SO many mistakes on this card it was not funny! Good thing you can pretty much hide all sorts of boo-boo’s when it comes to stamping!! Not all, but most. Anyhoo, here is the said card full of boo boo’s.
I don’t know if you can spot them, but I sure can! LOL! This is a gorgeous Magnolia stamp that I coloured in with my Copic markers. I used some Basic grey dsp, and the ribbon and greeting along with button are all from Stampin’Up.
I took my inspiration from the following image, which you need to use as your inspiration piece for the challenge:
Gorgeous girly bedroom….
So for those of you who haven’t seen the DT’s creations yet, you can view them all here along with the instructions on how to play along!
Want to play along? - here are some guidelines.
If you would like to play along, all you need to do is follow the directions:
1. Make your creation following the challenge ie, sketch, colour, or inspiration image.
2. Load your creation up onto your blog or a public viewing forum like Splitcoast Stampers, with a direct link back to the post on this website, so that others viewing the post will know where the challenge has come from, and it is courtesy to do so.
3. Then come back to this post so that you can add your name and link in the Mr. Linky!
You have until the Thursday the 4th March midnight to get your entries linked.
I will be announcing the winner and honourable mention on Friday the 5th March in the afternoon.









We certainly are own toughest critics - I can’t see one mistake on the card and I’m not just being polite!!!
Glad to see you back and I LOVE the mental image I am getting of you sliding around on your computer chair to Florence and the machine (*smile*). Take care, Nicki.
Hey Keesh, this is a GORGEOUS card - great job with the colouring in - I ‘heart’ those Magnolia’s and you’ve done a fab job. I really love the sentiment and made me think about what we were chatting about today. Follow your heart girl. Take carexx
Hi Keesh,

I thought your card was gorgeous just perfect for the inspiration picture. Mistakes? what mistakes?? You were right BTW I did have my entry all done. Hope you have a lovely weekend.

Hi Keesh,
What a stunning card and I can’t find any boo boo’s at all, but then again I’m really old and my eyesight is failing me “LOL” I’m really in love with that particular sentiment, as it is sooo true, we all feel so much beter when we really listen to what our heart is saying and follow it’s lead. I know! I’m about as subtle as a dog turd on a bowling green, but you know what I’m talkin’bout. Love you and miss you heaps, inky ones from Char
Keesh,
I love it! The papers you have picked are just perfect and your little butterfly girl is so sweet, a really unique take on your inspiration pic.
Love Fi xox
What a great inspiration picture!! I love your take on it too - Magnolia and pink, some of my favorite things
Hi Keesh,
Wow, love your sample card your colours are so vibrant and work together so well. I tried vibrant but it didn’t work for me! lol Might give the vibrant look another go today. Thank you for your inspiration and the challenge!
Off to read more on the maple flag post!
Hi there Keesh
A very cute card, and you always do such fab colouring with those markers! Thanks for the challenge, the picture was great inspiration for Zali’s b’day card! It is good to take part again after so long!
Hope all is going well for you up north - thinking of you.
Love, Shell
