Hello, friends! New month of amazing inspiration starts! Anna is here, I love, really love new autumn pictures, do you? This time i was inspired by picture with leaves, and using Tickle Me Happy I made this card:

Hey stampers, Anni here! Isn't this inspiration picture fabulous! I especially fell in love with the image in the upper right corner! I need colors in fall! For my card I used the set Breakfast Club!

Hello, hello it's Lisa!  Just like Anna I drew my inspiration from the very first photo... great minds think alike, right? hehehe!  I created my card using the Tickle Me Happy Stamp Set as well, but I've heat embossed and used twine on mine...

Hey friends!! Jeni, here. I am happy to be playing along today...I loved the gold in the inspiration piece!! I pulled out my Making Holidays Bright set and made a fun Christmas card!!

It is time to announce our favorites and the winner from BIC #58!  You all have created some wonderful projects for us to oohhh and aaahhh over, and we thank each of you who take the time to play along in our challenges.  We love seeing how you are inspired and the amazing projects you make using your Alley Way Stamps Goodies.  Let's start with some favorites...

The first project we would like to highlight comes from Joyce at EnjoyScrappin2!  She created this super cute shaker card with lots of fun details using the Ghoul-friend Stamp Set!  We especially loved the candy corn and pumpkins on the inside.

Next we were delighted to see this pretty card giving lots of color to the Tickle Me Happy Stamp Set.  The blending of colors is great, and the touch of detail to the stem is like icing on the cake.  Thank you Faith from The Crafting Professor for joining us!

This card just makes you happy by looking at it, so we just had to share it!  Created by Bev from Happy Dance ( love the blog name! ), we loved the way this card shined from the bling on the glasses to the bling garland!  The Adorabowl Stamp set is center stage and we love it!

And we have one more favorite we would like to share with you. Surprise!  We couldn't help but love this CAS card with it's beautiful coloring and touch of shine.  Created by Lynn from Creative Crafts by Lynn, the images from the Wreathed in Love set flow beautifully.  This card will certainly brighten anyone's day!

BE Inspired Challenge # 58 - Week 4

Wow, isn't this combo fun fun fun! You still have a few days to play along!

N@ Ali here with my take on these gorgeous colors, this time I went for the orange/black and white only, using Tickle Me Happy and Rock Solid for the sentiment.

Chrissie here! This time around, I decided to focus on the polka dots and Halloween feel to the badge! I used Seeing Spots and Ghoulfriend.

Hello,  Tracy here!  I wanted to create a bit of a different card, so I focused on the black, white, and silver color combo.  I love the look of the silver embossing powder on black card stock, so I stamped the snowflakes from the Winter's Butterflies set with VersaMark ink and heat embossed them.

Hi!!! Dana here!!! I used some leftovers from my last BIC card and made a kind of Halloween card!! Kind of because it dosen;t say Halloween but it does have bats!! I used Speak Easy and Bumps in the Night!!

Sabine here. Hi there, I combined three different sets for this BIC card. I used the cute bats with the tiny eyes from Ghoul-Friend , the house from Mrs.Rogers Neighborhood  and the sentiment from Now You See Me.

Boohoo - Tanja here. I used one of my favorite images - a monster! I LOVE cute Monster. This one is from Monster Mash. Have a nice weekend!

BE Inspired Challenge # 58 - Week 3

Hello! Anna is here and it's my view on this month's inspiration pictures. I chose a pic with garland and a deer this time. I cut orange and black circles and stamped dots (from Wreathed in Love set) with the same colors. Looks like a confetti! And a sentiment is from Rock Solid.

Anni here! Orange and turquoise is one of my favorite color combos ever! Today I added the black and white polka dots from the upper right image to the mix!

Hiya!  It's Lisa here with another take from me on this lovely inspiration...  I've been in the Halloween spirit lately, and this inspirational photo really hit it home for me, so I busted out an older set "Ghoul Friend" and got inky...

Hey all, Jeni here! I loved the polka dots--I always do--on the inspiration photo! I also loved the spider webs and was thinking how I could recreate them, more love for the bunch of thread!! My dinosaur is from Livin' Fossils and the sentiment from Prehistoric.

Hey, it's Christine. This is my creation, using "Ghoul Friend", one of the cutest Halloween sets ever! :)

BE Inspired Challege # 58 - Week 2

Our Guest Designer Vicki is back! She used TA-DA & Now You See Me.
"I was inspired by the bottom photo as the bunny I used reminded me of the deer head with antlers. I used the sky blue feathers to mimic the arrows in the bottom corner of the photo and I used the black, orange and white sequins to mimic the “garland” draping over the deer antlers."

Chrissie here - I think the inspiration picture is one of my favorites! I love the fall and Halloween! I used Funky Feet and Ghoulfriend to create this tag!

Hello!  Tracy here with a fun Halloween card!  I was inspired by the polka dots and colors in the inspiration photo.  I used the Bumps In The Night stamp set.

Hi Dana here!! When i made my card i was mainly thinking about the blue pick-up truck with the orange pumpkins in the back! So i used those colors in my design! I also really wanted to use the Zombie sentiment in the Bumps in the Night stamp set! I also used the matching SVG to cut my brains!! Here is what i came up with:

Happy hello to y'all! Tanja here. I love the inspiration picture very much. I guess the colors fit perfect together!  For my card I used Ghoul Friends.

Hi, it's N@ Ali here. Here's my take on this week's inspiration photo, what a great color combo! I used the mini Now You See Me.

BE Inspired Challenge #58 - Week 1

Our Guest Designer for the month is Vicki! She used Meltdown & Now You See Me.
"I was inspired by the top right inspirational photo and used the black twine and button to mimic the spider in the corner. The mirror inspired my white panel with a vellum overlay and I embossed the eyeballs to mimic the webbing over mirror. The little “one-eyed” guy is meant to mimic the lamp on the table."

Anni here! I was totally inspired by the picture in the upper left corner! Love the woodgrain with orange and turquoise! The cute robot is from the set Crazy Circuits!

Hello from Anna! What a great inspiration this month, right? I love the colors and pictures. And this week I was insoired by picture with a turquoise car with pumpkins. I used Now You See Me, Rock Solid and Love Knots sets.

Hey there, it's Jeni! Isn't the inspiration piece awesome!? I had a great time working on the challenge!! I used some Tickle Me Happy feathers, and sentiment from the Rock Solid freebie! I loved, loved, the truck and pumpkins!!

Hey, Lisa here with one more project to share to help get those creative minds going... This inspirational photo had me falling in love with a new to me color combo... this will def. have to go in my bag of tricks to use at a later date, and since I can't get enough of the Tickle Me Happy Stamp Set I'm using it here too...

Hey, it's Christine. I have a pretty simple take on the photo using images from Tag-alongs and a sentiment from BEE Sweet.
