Monday + Simon Says Stamps Monday Challenge= FUNDAY!
This weeks challenge is the letter "I" and what inspires you. Now, I'm sure a lot of you are thinking HELLO...that's easy. Ummm...not me, nope, not at all.
I'm thinking, I'm thinking... ice cream, icicles, icy blues, iceberg. Hey, I'm Canadian and apparently I think cold things. Needless to say I felt challenged and I do like a challenge.
After days of contemplating (no, really days and days) it hit me, Idea-Ology. Join me and check out what the letter "I" sparks my imagination using Idea-Ology.
I've been collecting ALL the Idea-Ology Correspondence goodies of late.
I made sure to only use the Correspondence stamp set for the whole project. I wanted show just how far this stamp set can stretch.
I did the sides too.
I topped with a pen nib and tucked in a
Index Label with the small chit chat sentiment.
Who doesn't love the Correspondence Designer Tape! It perfectly frames the box.
Once of my favorite dies released this year is the envelope die. There's so much you can do with this die. I stamped then added a photobooth image. I wrote on it too so it looks extra vintage-y. That's a word right...vintage-y.
Thank you for taking the time to pop in. If you leave a comment I'll share some smoke salmon with you?
Can I sneak this into some of my favorite challenges!!!
What a super idea to use Idea-oligy things, Nicole! Love the gorgeous mail package along with the lovely envelop! Hugs, Sandra
ReplyDeleteThough I love every single inch of your creations, you had me totally guessing what your 'I' word was to be - incredible, I think...
