Amber's World Release by Catherine Pooler Designs


Happy October everyone!  It's finally cooling off here in IL.  The leaves are slowly starting to turn colors and autumn is in the air!  Woohoo, my favorite time of year!

There's an exciting weekend coming up for all my fellow cardmakers out there:
World Card Making Day!
How will you be celebrating?

I'll be a busy bee, over at StampNation for their three day World Card Making event starting Friday, where we'll be traveling the globe to find inspiration for our cardmaking.  There are lots of amazing challenges and prizes in store for our StampNation members so be sure to stop by and plan on some fun time, getting crafty with your sistahs!

If you're not a StampNation member yet and would love to join us, you can go HERE to learn more!  We welcome all new cardmakers with open arms!!
