DST September Blog Train Freebie and 40% Sale


It's that time of month again.  Time for the train to leave the station. And the DST train is one of my favorites.  I loved this month's theme devoted to creativity and inspiration. As a scrapbook designer I struggle with inspiration at times and it was fun for me to ponder what really inspires me as I started to work on my portion of the blog train.  

Books. Books. Books. I adore books and always have since my very first picture books.  I lived one block away from our local library - a huge old Victorian house with a curving staircase, marble fireplace, glass chandeliers and my favorite feature, huge old windows with cozy window seats in the children's section.

Lavender Dreams Kit, Freebie and Birthday Sales

I've always loved aromatherapy and essential oils.  The amazing scents, the sensuous feel of the oils on my skin, the unique healing properties of each oil.  I actually have my own small distiller and when I'm feeling especially ambitious, I distill some of my own oils  and hydrosols (scented waters) that are a by-product of the distilling process from flowers in my garden. I have to confess that I've never done lavender. The few small plants that I have don't produce enough blooms for even a drop of oil! But I love burying my face in the plants and just inhaling.


So Lavender Dreams is a kit near and dear to my heart, evoking the sweet smell of lavender on a hot summer afternoon.  It contains 45 elements created at 300 dpi and 11 textured papers, 12" x 12" and like all of my personal use kits, its scrap for hire friendly.



I love the CT team's creations with this kit. I wonder if they were smelling that delicious lavender scent as they were working. I honestly felt like I could get just a hint of it at times when I was designing.

And I really enjoyed seeing some of the childhood pictures of the team members that they included in the layouts.

I'm a scrapbook addict. I've been involved with digital scrapabooking since July 2009, when my daughter introduced me to her favorite hobby. When I'm not scrapbooking (hmm, when exactly is that?), I'm enjoying life with my family including my two daughters and two grandsons, my husband Clemens and my Cavalier Spaniel, Vinnie. My hobbies include photography, reading, biking, and hiking.
