Do you travel with supplies to create with?

When you travel do take your creativity with you?  

I love to have things to work on during down time when I travel.  I was visiting my father, who is an architect, this past July. One day I sort of took over his drafting table!
 Just in the planning stages of my cards in these pictures!

Some of the supplies in my travel kit:
Altered Pages Collage Images
Craft Clock
Leaky Shed Gears
Glitz Paper Pack
Stella Wink
Scissor
Ribbon
Brads
Ink
Stamps 
Small emblishments
Dew Drops
Foam dots 
Tacky Glue
Glue Stick
During my visit, my father came up with few things that I could use in my card making. Here is a box of stamps that he had used to create landscapes on his drawings. Below I used one of the stamps to create the background on my ballon card.
The Ballon on this card is from the Altered Pages Collage Sheet Steampunked Machines.  Also from Altered Pages is a gear from Leaky Shed Watch Parts.  

The collage image on the second card is from Altered Pages.  Also from Altered Pages is the Craft Clock Face,  the background paper is from a Glitz 6x6 paper pack.

Create whenever and where ever!!!
Finish your summer with a creative BANG!

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.
