Inspiration Challenge
Yay I finally got the chance to play in one of Keesh’s Inspiration Challenges! I haven’t done one for so long but as soon as I saw this week’s pic I knew what stamp set I wanted to use and was determined to get it in on time.
Here is Keesh’s inspiration pic:

and here is my card.

Don’t ya just love this dude? Unfortunately he’s from the US Stampin’ Up! catty. My girlfriend visited from the US a few weeks ago and bought me some pressies which was soooo exciting! This guy is a single stamp named Extreme Guitar and the other images are from a set called Extreme Elements. I’m just busting to use them more so I’m saying a little prayer we will get them in one of our catalogues one day soon. Fantastic for male cards.
Stamp sets: Extreme Guitar (US), Extreme Elements (US) and Occasional Greetings
Cardstock: Basic Black, Taken with Teal, Kiwi Kiss, Basic Gray, Whisper White
Inks: Black Stazon, Taken with Teal, Kiwi Kiss, Basic Gray
Accessories: Cutter kit to distress, Silver hodgepodge brads, Word Window punch
Thanks for looking!

Congratulations on winning, that is a great card & works so well in those colours. I sooo want that stamp set, am thinking an American friend might have to help me out (also really want the medallion BG stamp, I keep putting it on the forum!).
