Etsy Inspiration #47


Good Saturday Morning Everyone!
Welcome to our Bogo Event--Bring one friend get one entry--!!! Our featured shop is called Julie's Jewels.....she actually has 2 stores so be sure to check them both out....Julie's Jewels!! She sells beautiful handmade jewelry and home decor so you know there's lots of inspiration in store for you!! Our lucky winner this week will receive a $20 Gift Certificate to either of her shops.....but that's not all!! Every EIC player that brings a friend that's new to our challenge will be entered into a drawing for a $25 Gift Certificate from Paper Makeup Stamps!!! How cool is that?!!

Here’s how to participate… invite a friend (or friends) that are new to the challenge to play along with you for today's challenge. Have your friend(s) go to Ashley’s Heart Hugs, read about the shop for the week, go to the shop, be inspired and CREATE! Then go back to Ashley’s blog and link your project for the EIC 47 challenge. In your post, you should include “referred by” and your name. What YOU need to do as the referrer is link your creation to Ashley’s blog, and ensure you include your BOGO(s) names. You’ll get one entry for the grand prize for each new person referred! The more people you invite to play, the greater your chance is to win! Good luck everyone and have fun creating!!!!

I chose the above picture as my inspiration because Sage Shadow is a color that I rarely use. The white with the sage in between is gorgeous to me & the butterfly is just the perfect finishing touch IMO!! I decided to use Sweet Sketch Wednesday for my layout & I am so happy with the final result! I'm sure the rest of the DT has some gorgeous eye candy for you so check them out & leave them some love......

  4. Hi Jackie

    Sorry I haven't been by for so long. Just having a scan through all your recent projects - love them all.

    I agree, Sage Shadow is a lovely color and you have shown it to it's best in this card.

    Missed you!

  5. This is GORGEOUS, Jackie! I had to do a double take to see if that was a color I have (which I do and I love, but again, don't use enough!) What a fabulous card! Have to remember to order that punch - it makes the butterfly too easy =)

  33. Jackie,

    Wow I love that inspiration piece you choose and that set is so perfect for this inspiration piece!!! I love all the greeny blueish color you used and I have got to get that butterfly punch like very very soon!!!

    I hope you are having a wonderful time at Convention!!! I wish I could have gone it looks like so much fun, but I do not know if I will ever get to go!!!

    My Next Door Nieghbor and I (also an SU downline of mine) really talked about going this year, but in the end we decided it would probably cost us about $1,000.00 a piece to go and it just seemed like to much for us!!!!

    I am going to break down one of these years and tell myself I am worth that much money to go have fun and learn and meet so many great Demo's!!!

    I love your card, but I always love your cards!!!

    Heather
