Etsy Inspired Challenge #88 - Creation Designs

Welcome to another Etsy Inspired Challenge! This week we have a great vintage shop for you all to be inspired by... Creation Designs. Along with fabulous vintage finds, Creation Designs is also filled with unique handmade items using found/vintage objects like silverware windchimes.

I'm excited to see how you all are inspired by the vintage style of our shop this week!

And you are definitely going to want to play along because we have a fabulous sponsor this week...Limelight Papercrafts!

Limelight Papercrafts will be giving one lucky winner some new Basic Grey Max and Whiskers goodies! How would you like to win some yummy buttons and epoxy stickers?!

All you have to do is play along...
- Visit Creation Designs and find an item that inspires you
- Create a project of your own based off that inspiration
- Link your project up on this post using the new InLinkz below by Friday, May 21 at noon PST

Everyone will be entered into a random drawing to win. If you upload to SCS or PCP, please use keyword EIC88. And please remember to give credit to the shop that you found your inspiration from.

Please Welcome....

Mandy Cheshire, our October Guest Designer! We are so excited to have Mandy join us this month as she is a talented paper crafter as well as the owner of a great online store, Limelight Papercrafts.

Here is what she had to say:
Hi, everyone! I am so honored to join the Etsy Inspired Design team for the month of October! I am the wife of a very supportive and wonderful husband, Drew, and the mother of two beautiful kiddos, Cameron and Katy. My husband and I own and operate Limelight Papercrafts (limelightpapercrafts.com). My favorite thing to do is stamp (of course!), and with any leftover time I enjoy cooking, singing, and reading. I look forward to a fabulous month of Etsy Inspired creations!!

Here is a sample of Mandy's fabulous work:
