Etsy Inspired # 124- TooCute Kawaii

What a cute store we have for this week's challenge!  TooCuteKawaii has the cutest little jewelry and more! There were so many cute items to choose for my inspiration but I finally settled on these cute little buttons.  I'm not sure if it is appropriate OR inappropriate since I help run the Smithfield Foods fleet of trucks.....but anyway- they are too cute. 

Here is my card- I used the Artful Inkables set, Down on the Farm with Card Patterns Sketch # 99.  (here lately I seem to NEED a sketch to work with......yikes)  
So now it is time for YOU to play along!  One lucky winner will win these cute CUPCAKE EARRINGS from TooCuteKawaii.  Another winner will win 4 digi images from our sponsor, Meljen's Designs! All you have to do to play is choose an image from TooCuteKawaii as your inspiration, make a project and link it on the Etsy Inspired Challenge Blog.  For more details on the challenge and how to play be sure to Check out the EIC Blog.  Also, be sure to check out the Design Team's creations for more ideas and inspiration- It is Rachel Hope's last week as Guest Designer- and it was so GREAT having her on the team!  Be sure to give her lots of love today!

EIC # 121- La Pomme

Good Morning (or afternoon or evening depending on when you stumble upon my blog)!!  Today I have a card for the Etsy Inspired Challenge - we are up to # 121 already!!  Can you believe it?  This week's featured Etsy Shop is LaPomme.  Even if you don't want to play the challenge, you HAVE to check this shop out!  It is full of vintage items for all tastes. The store is also offering a prize package of vintage music sheets, a vintage tin and plush fruits to one lucky winner (boy I wish I could win!!).  I had a hard time deciding on which image to use for my inspiration, but I finally decided on this:

I think what inspired me is pretty obvious.  When I saw this photo I thought of this wonderful stamp set I have from Mark's Finest Papers called Take the Time/Father's Day.  I love the pocket watch image- it is truly timeless, just like the inspiration item.  I cut the card stock (also from Mark's Finest Papers) to look like pieces of ribbon.  I completed the look with Ranger Crackle Accents to give it that vintage look. 

This week's sponsor is The Stamp Fairy.  The winner of this week's challenge will receive 3 Digi Images of their choice from the store.  There's some super cute stuff in this store.  Be sure to check it out so you know what images you want to win (or buy if you don't).  :)
If you don't know how to play the Etsy Inspired Challenge, it is EASY as PIE!  Just choose an item in this week's sponsor shop, La Pomme and create an item based on that image.  You can be inspired by colors, lines, whatever.  It is open to interpretation and creativity.  Have FUN!!  Just link your  creations to this week's post on the EIC blog for your chance to win.  For more details, please visit the EIC Blog HERE. 

Still not convinced you can or should play?  Check out the rest of the Etsy Inspired Design Team posts for more inspiration!
