WINNER :: Winterfest 09 Cuttlebug Challenge

I hosted a Cuttlebug Challenge on 2Peas for Winterfest 2009. It's an annual event hosted by the stamping board on 2Peas.

Here were the details of the challenge: you needed to stamp as well as use the Cuttlebug.

The winner is Kellsterstamps. Love this card. She wins a $10 gift certificate to the online store of her choice.

There so much to like on this card:

• Love the pastel colors
• awesome use of the Cuttlebug: she used three different embossing folders
• I like the cupcakes in the tree
• the big beautiful bow
• the large label die is quite nice
• the stitching adds some texture
  
• the sentiment is so cute

Thanks to everyone on 2Peas for entering. So much fun and lots of creativity.

Check out my Pea Profile on 2Peas

I'm being profiled on Two Peas in a Bucket today. Nice. Lots of fun making all those cute little cards too. I had a chance to use one of Making Memories newest lines - Noteworthy. Good stuff. I really like the journaling sheets.

Anyway, check it out if you get a chance:

Sketch-less week, but Inspired!

No sketches for me this week. I might try to play catch up next week or just jump back in w/the most recent ones.

I've been checking out some places for inspiration. Looking for inspiration is everywhere. But recently there was a chat on 2peas hosted by Rhonna Farrer - love her. The chat was a part of 2peas' CHA festivities. Very cool. So Rhonna was asking participants where they get inspiration. It turned into a huge four page chat w/lots of links to inspiration.

Of course I listed Keisha Campbell and here A Bit East blog.

But here are some of the others that I really enjoyed:

• Sasha Farina blog - lots of color and totally thinking outside of the box
• Donna Downey's Fabric Albums - I've always like fabric, this just takes it to the next level
• Rhonna has a photo book that is way cool, very eclectic and fresh
• Melibean always posts her lovely work for me (and others) to oggle over
  

If it's photos that you dig or aspire to be better at, get geeked about these:

• Bobbi+Mike - a wife and husband photography duo composing images in awe-inspring ways
• Tara Whitney's resume of images is deep; you will look and love!

But for my everyday, all the time inspiration, I usually check out my fav forums and galleries:

• 2Peas
• SIS TV
• Splitcoast Stampers

Oh and for techie plus creativity and freebies and just all around good stuff:

• Savitri's blog - just good peeps and so much fun
  

That should keep you busy ... here's to never-ending inspiration (and sharing it)!
