I'm happy to be back this week bringing seasonal inspiration from one of my favorite scrapbookers! She is extremely popular with her worldwide audience on YouTube for her amazing mini books, mastery of "fussy cutting" and building creative 3D projects with Graphic 45 papers...have you guessed who it is? It's Anne of Annes Paper Creations! What's interesting about her videos is that I always get tons of great ideas for cards too! So the challenge this week, if you choose to accept it, is to be inspired by her website, or the video below, to create a card design based on her mini album tips and tricks! If that seems too hard, then get a little spooky today in honor of one of her Halloween minibooks below - and make a Halloween card design or children's treat bag project! In either case, use any patterned paper you have, no need to use Graphic 45 unless you want to.
Challenge Goals: Please don't be tempted to upload a card that you have made prior to this challenge, just because an image on the site reminds you of it - this is all about creating from an inspiration. :cool: So, please take the challenge of allowing your creative juices to flow based on the images you browse this week. Remember, it can just be the color palette or style that ignites your creativity. Whatever draws you to the designs, take the challenge of doing something uniquely inspired today.
Please remember that all inspiration links should be inspired by Annes Paper Creations website. Remember that your card might also end up on my Ongoing Inspiration Genius Board too, especially if it shows signs of extra deep inspiration! (smiles)
Use the keyword: IC566(no spaces or extra characters) when you upload your card, and make sure you put commas between your key words.

I was inspired by the wonderful creations shown in Annes Paper Creations- and used my Graphic 45 matstack- An Eerie Tale- and mat board die cuts for my journal pages. Here's the first photo- and here is the other pages . I had so much fun!
