Sneaks and Love.

Sneaks for Studio Calico's October kit went live last night. Here are a few of mine. 

This was made using Add-on 4. 

 
And this was made using Add-on 2, as well as a little white Mister Huey.  

Also, there are still some of the Back 40 kits and add-ons available if you're interested. 

On another note, with Bloglines shutting down I had to switch my RSS feeds over to Google Reader. Going through my blog lists and organizing really re-energized me creatively and I'd like to share some of the people that are majorly inspiring me right now. 

Amy Tangerine - I love the fact that Amy actually includes memorabilia on her pages, and don't forget about her amazing hand stitching techniques. 

Jen Gallacher - Her clean and classic style blows me away every time.

Jen Johner - Oh, Jen Johner, how do I love thee.....whenever I'm in a slump, I look to her pages to give me  a spark. As a result, I know that some of her style has bled over into mine occasionally, though it's not intentional. Immitation is the highest form of flattery, right? :)

Michelle Clement - One of my favorites. Her eye for color and design is fantastic, and there is always so much going on in her pages, you could look for ages. I know I just mentioned her in my last post, but I really think she's worth mentioning again. Love her style that much. 

Moon Ko - The thing about Moon's pages, besides a clean and graphic style that is stunning, is that they are often laugh out loud funny. She's not afraid to tell the real stories, warts and all, and I can frequently relate to what she writes.

Paige Evans - She does things with paper that I can only dream about. Technique heavy and vibrant colors. Can't wait to see baby pages from her in the future!

Wilna Furstenburg - There is no other Wilna. She has a style that is all her own and is so unique. I can spot a Wilna page a mile away. 

Chelsea (ack! I don't know her last name!) - This girl has the most amazing style. Tons of details and artsy touches, and her sense of color is to die for. I just came across her work recently, and am in love. I can't read a word of her blog, but no matter, it is pure eye candy.  

Maggie Holmes - She has such a fun and refreshing style, and she makes it look so easy. And her photography is insane. 

Tina Azmus - I've really been enjoying all of her work lately. Graphic but with fun and artsy touches. 

Robyn Werlich - Just recently discovered her blog, though I've known her name for a long time (I know, I live under a rock) I am in awe of her pages and amazing sense of design. 

Amy Parker - Love her use of embellishments. She has a little girl too so I look to her pages for girly inspiration. 

I think that's more than enough for today. I have tons more people that I look to for inspiration, I'll try to share some more soon. Please feel free to link me up to some of your faves!
