Hello October....

Time to turn the calendar to the month of October..... Hubby and I made this little oak calendar holder a few months ago and I have just loved decorating each months page! Dawn inspired me with her idea of calendar pages each month and provided me with Cats Calendar Templates!


I used a C.C. Designs Pumpkin Emma and Stamping Bellas row of Pumpkins to create this little calendar page. I then coloured on white copic paper with copics to create a rainbow effect of fall colours, punched out some fall leaves and then placed them as though they were falling! I coloured the whole image with prismas and with lyra pencils.
Have a wonderful day...and thank-you soooo much for popping in for a visit. I know things can get so busy and it gets hard to come by and visit!

Hard to believe it is October. I do like all the fall colours but hate to think about what is to follow. I love your calendar page, that image is so cute.

Hi Christine .. i just love the first of the month to see your calendar pages ... and this one is no disappointment . I love this month anyway - and your calendar just put me right into that Autumnal mood .. although i do prefer crisp sunny Autumn days to the horrible wet one here!

ALOHA CHRISTINE!!! Finally I am back at it again posting new things,and will be able to stop by for a visit! A pleasure I have really missed!!! Your creations while I have been gone are FAB! I hope that all is well with you and your family and that you are looking forward to the Xmas holidays. I have already done Xmas orders of 20 cards for one friend and 10 for another. I also have 30 made for myself. Now I am working on Halloween and Thanksgiving! It's so wonderful to be creating again. I send big hugs!!! J:)
