Well we've come to the last post with our September Guest Designer Mary Dawn Quirindongo - she's provided some great samples this month using the new September stamps and it's been great getting to know her better!

Here are the final 2 of the Questions and Answers:
Inspiration: Lots of things inspire me—the stamp, the patterned paper, a photograph, a blog post.
Personal Style: I think style evolves as your skills grow. I couldn’t tell you what my style is currently because I still feel like a baby-stamper. Ask me again in a year.

And last but certainly not least here are two more samples by Mary Dawn:
Mary Dawn did an excellent job of masking and creating a scene using the Autumn Trevor, Pumpkin Emma and Fence stamps. I love how she added the sentiment and had it hanging off the edge of the card too!
And here again she masked the pumpkin stamps perfectly and used just those with the fence stamp and another sentiment to create a quick and simple card. Not coloring the fence just makes the pumpkins POP!

I love when someone does something "different" - like she did with the sentiment on the top card!

I totally agree, excellent idea to leave the fence as is and add color to the pumpkins and grass. Gorgeous!
