SCS Inspiration and Color Challenges

You may've noticed that I've plunged into challenges. As long as no one is really judging, I'm enjoying them! Instead of sitting there fiddling my thumbs for a bit deciding what I want to do, challenges gives me a starting point and gets the creative juices flowing a lot faster.
