Happy Halloween! Party Invitation Card
This is an invitation card for a Halloween party that we threw for all our friends' kids! It's a hybrid card. I made it with brushes and images from Rhonna Farrer (from the Spooky Junque collection) and when printed, I added some stamps from the Phantom collection (House of Three and Pink Paislee) and some jewel stickers. When I was finished. I put it in this year's Halloween invitation card from Martha Stewart (see below). I put the invitation behind the wings of the owl. I thought it was kind of Harry Potterish. All of the kids loved that owl card! :)

Organize Your Stash Challenge Week 2
This week we will dream about our dream scrap space. The scrap space that the Scrap Fairy would bring. Well, my wildest scraproom dream would be a large room with loads of stuff neatly organized, just like in a small scrapbook shop! I mean, how about living in a scrapbook shop, wouldn't that be totally awesome?! :D
I have found hundreds of awesome and pretty scrap rooms out there to inspire me, and I don't have space to mention them all but here's a couple that I really like. The one above is Amanda's scrap room. I love the organization! On her blog, there are pics of every neat little drawer. Awesome!! Such an inspiration! And the other thing that I love about her room is the cardstock and paper sorted by color! I love when things are sorted by color! I can just sit and watch all those pretty colors for ever! Unfortunately, sorting by color doesn't work for me because I don't scrap by color. That's a pity...
Look at this amazing image from Kat's blog! Colors! And this made me realize that I could sort some of my stuff in colors. For example, mist bottles and ribbons. That would be wonderful!
Here's another awesome scrap room: Paper Papillon's space (more pics on her blog!) It's almost as in my little scrap shop dream. :)
I don't have a clear idea of how I will organize my own small scrap space. If you remember the sorry pics from last week, you realize that I have limited potential to turn this into a pretty dream as the gorgeous rooms above. But I'm sure that I'll make the best of what I have, and the main point is that it will be a practical work space for me.

Holiday Card Boot Camp with Jennifer McGuire and Kristina Werner
Woohooo! I sent a comment on Jennifer McGuire's blog and I won a spot in the Holiday Card Boot Camp online class teached by Jennifer and Kristina Werner. I was going to sign up anyway but I've been stalling because my scrap budget is rather tight right now, since we've moved to a new apartment that needs some remodeling. So this was the perfect prize for me! Thank you, Jennifer! :)
I'm really excited to follow this online class! I started to shop my stash for holiday card making last week and I am determined to have all the holiday cards ready to put in the mail on December 1. Last year I made the same kind of Christmas card for all my friends and family but this year everyone is going to get a unique Christmas card. So, the Holiday Card Boot Camp will be perfect for inspiration and learning new tricks and techniques.
