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.

You have truly touch my heart because we are avid readers and learning nuts. I received your newsletter and really had no intention of downloading this blog train while I am cleaning off my computer. I want to do a good clean backup. Now you have done it. Once I saw those books, I was completely hooked. Thank you as always for your fabulous and so professional, and sometimes quirky, downloads. Hugs and kisses. :)

Thanks for the great freebie! I loved your library story! I would have loved living that close to ours! I played library as a little girl with my own books and lent them to neighbor girls. Since I am almost 60 years young I still very much like the feel of a book in my hands. (I can lay out on the swing with it too!)
I also would have loved that Victorian house! I swear I was born in the wrong era (almost-I love digi scrapping!). My front room is in a modified Victorian decor.

Thank you so much! My library used to get all the old books from the main branch and continue to circulate them - no where else could you get Gene Stratton Porter or Pansy books. Nothing is as good as a good book!
