I enjoy PSL, getting inspired by so many, being on a team, and for using my wonderful Club Scrap stuff! I used my Dream In Color stamp, it was brand spanking new and what a discovery it has been! I made this card and in person it is really beautiful. Just had to share, try using something you haven't before, it can be really special!

I often wonder how creativity can be sparked. I created the digital LO below with a picture which was from a coworker, whom is visiting Paris and posted it to Facebook. Using overlays, backgrounds and graphics, from Navajo kit & mixing them with some backgrounds from September 2009 Military kit. The spark I believe to combine was from the wave of the sculpture and the saying.

This is my trial card to see if the great card stock from CS works with this purse pattern, and it does! I used the Serengeti blue/green solid paper. It folded great and this purse just uses one 12 by 12 paper. I also used the awesome Copper embossing powder with some Navajo stamps. Inside I added pieces of the copper Ornamental papers.
I am very exitied to try this pattern with the new Navajo

Did you happen to notice, there aren't any solid backgrounds in this month's digital kit? There are several really lovely overlays, which I love! I almost panicked and then decided to be more creative and see what I could come up with. I used a template that used quite a few background papers and everything worked out real well.
I made subtle changes to some of the backgrounds and if you look

I used CS papers and some stamps and embossing folders from my stash to make this Spooktacular Halloween card
This is what it looks like opened
I used a 5 1/2 by 12 in. black print paper from Study in Red. All other papers were from the Spooktacular Mini Bite Size Collection from CS.
I had another card from a friend I used as a guide. Score at 2,4,8 and 10 inches. Then cut from first score line to

I just discovered that Neighborhood is a digital kit, not sure why I did not notice it sooner. Maybe I am the last to know?
Neighborhood has some really fun elements in it- like bodies!
I combined some elements with a Club Scrap created Quick Drop LO from Orient Express- really fun digital layout.
Pardon the silly picture of me, I am always trying to get a snapshot of myself and my arms are too

I love making the cards with Greeting To Go as soon as my paper kit arrives. This month's Oreint Express was super quick , easy and extra stunning! I wish the photos could really show off the paper, dimension and how exquiste these cards worked up to be.
The Oreint Express stamps this month are right up my alley, I just love them and had so much fun using them to make these cards.
Isn't that
