October Cloud9 Blog Hop


Hello, hello!

I am so happy that it is time for another Cloud9 Blog Hop!

This month we are welcoming the fabulous Kim Singdahlsen as our Guest Designer. I can't wait to see what she has in store for us this month.

Suzanne always picks the best inspiration photos, and this month's is just so fun! A perfect October photo:


This is what I was inspired to create.


This might sound a little crazy, but I never thought to turn the Label Layers 4 on end like this - I always visualize this image oriented horizontally. I was flipping through my stamp sets looking for something to mirror the door shape in the picture, and thought I'd try turning this one vertical. I like it! And it was sized perfectly for the sentiment from A Pocketful: Halloween.


Be sure to swing on over to the Cloud9 Blog to check out the rest of the Inspiration Teams' creations!

I hope you'll join us by linking up your project over on the Cloud9 Blog. In addition to the opportunity to join us as a Guest Member of the Inspiration Team, you could also win some Wplus9 loot!

I can't wait to see what you create this month! Take care!

  4. Fabulous card, Anya! I love how you used the chevron with a bit of spritzing. And Label Layers 4 is a great frame from that cute sentiment.

  5. Why don't I ever think to flip the Label Layers stamp/die in that direction? I love what you did with it here!

  6. You never disappoint, Anya! The label looks fantastic in the other direction, and I love the misting on the background with the subtle chevron embossing. Such a cute design!
