Are you playing along with Altered Pages first " Alter Your Creativity " Headdress Challenge? There's still time. On Every Second Monday of the Month we plan to bring you a new Challenge to encourage you to step a little out of your comfort zone and " Alter Your Creativity ".

It's never too early to start preparing for the holidays.  We all know the phrase, "Christmas in July."  Well, I've decided to have Halloween in July.  I've been enjoying using the Halloween Collage Sheets from Altered Pages and created this card recently to share.  This is the second card I made using the Antique Halloween collage sheet.  I have to admit this is one of my favorite Altered Pages collage sheets.  The photos are so fun to use and there are tons of ideas to use them on such as this card or a party invitation.The orange dot patterned paper from the Vintage Blue Collection  is a fun accessory to this collage sheet and can be found at Altered Pages, too.  Get a start on your invitations for your Halloween parties now so you can focus on the fun that scary night!  Head over to Altered Pages to help you with them! 

I'm looking foward to the fall already.  It's one of my favorite seasons..winter being the second one.  I decided to beat the heat we've been having and enjoy making some Halloween cards to get my mind off how hot it is and I now have a head start on those cards to send out.  I absolutely adore the Halloween collage sheets from Altered Pages and have created several cards with them already.  This one was created with the Antique Halloween Collage Sheet and a sheet of the Glitz 6 x6 Vintage Blue Paper Pad . Beat the heat yourself and start early on some of those holiday cards.  Head over to Altered Pages to find great collage sheets and supplies to help you starting creating!
