Clearly Inspired Challenge (CIC4) - Let's get Bradilicious!

Happy New Year and welcome 2010!  Hey friends, its Katie here to welcome you to another great year of stamping, sharing and being inspired by Clear Dollar Stamps and all of us who love to work with all the wonderful stamps and products at the store. 

Today is not only a great day for shopping... all the sneak peeks are eagerly awaiting to find new homes plus I can't really think of a better way to start the new year other than playing along with us for our latest Clearly Inspired Challenge. 

Here are the basics for our challenges:

• These challenges will occur every other Friday
• You have until the following Thursday to link your project using Mr. Linky (below)
• Challenges will vary each and every time
• Your work is important so there will be 5 Inspirational Cards/Projects chosen to be featured here
• Use CDstamps if you have them... IF NOT PLEASE PLAY ANYWAY... use what you have!
• A PRIZE (your choice of stamp set) will be awarded to a randomly chosen winner
• If you upload to Splitcoast Stampers or another online gallery please use CIC4 as one of your keywords

So without further ado, this week its time to get BRADILICIOUS... and no I don't have Brad Pitt to share with you.

Dust off those brads or find some new yummy ones, but have fun with them.  We won't be choosy here... use 1, 2, 3, or as many as you want.  Big, small, medium... we don't care.  Silver, gold, brass, we'll take all metals here.  Gems, semi-precious or precious.  Fuzzy, smooth, or even corduroy... bring 'em on!

And to get you inspired, here are some fabulous samples from members of the Clear Dollar Design Team.

ETA... a few bumps here... but I wanted to let you know that I added a couple of the members cards for the challenge :) (Tricia's and Joan's)

Tricia (featuring Chubby Chickadee)

Joan (featuring December's Stamp of the Month)

Linda (featuring Cute Critters)

Alex (featuring Winter Eskimo)

Gloria (featuring Monkey Madness)

Cassie (featuring Bee-utiful Ballerina)

 

Lisa (featuring Quick Lists)

Please use the Mr. Linky below.  All I ask is that you post on your blog that you are playing along with Clearly Inspired Challenges sponsored by Clear Dollar Stamps and provide a DIRECT link to your card and/or project! 

You have until next Thursday night (late) to join the fun and get a chance to win your choice of stamp set.

This is Katie signing off for Clearly iStamp.
