AUTUMN! IT'S AWESOME

Autumn is one of my favorite time of year. The air starts to cool down , people seems to be a little happier from the heat. Leaves rolling by, acorns on the ground . Splashes of yellow ,burgandy, and orange. People start setting out their decorations  and planning  Fall carnivals. Fun times ahead. I wanted to share some of my Fall decorations with you . Enjoy.

WOYW#66

I'm ready to go visiting work desks to see what the minds have been creating. I've been busy with the craft fair and had good results. I was pleased . WOOHOO! Here is whats on my workdesk today:

Can you guess what it is? It is going to be my new sign I can change Greetings and sayings on for the different seasons. A neighbor down the street had an Adirondack chair on her front porch that was deteriorating and she was going to throw it in the trash. I said I'll take the back of the chair when you get ready to throw it in the trash. The next day I came home and noticed something on my porch and she had placed the back of the chair at the door. I measured  to have a border around and painted  the center with chalkboard paint. I can't wait to use my chalk to draw and print. I have something else on my desk too. Are you a Alice inWonderland fan? Check out this new paper from Graphic 45.


 This is going to be a Alice in Wonderland Banner for my mantel. To cool. Fall is coming slowly. But anticipating the cool breeze, leaves ,and pumpkins.Here is a close up on a couple of the cards.


I embellished a little with some glitter. Hope you can see.

On this one I used a gold glitter at the pumpkins eyes and mouth and a sparkle gold leave in the bottom right corner.I'll be finishing up today. You will see a better photo in my fall decorating post in a few weeks. Be sure to visit me .Well I'm going to other desks now.

WOWW #63

Fall is coming slowly. My creative inspiration today are these adorable candy corns made from felt. 


The idea came from creative breathing. Awesome blog and great artist. I started these last Friday with my friend over at la la by mona . I will be finishing them up today. When all made you chain stitch (crochet) a length (whatever size you may need) and hang the corn on  to make a garland.


Hope everyone has a GREAT Wednesday . You with see the garland in later post when I post about Fall Decorating. Enjoy.

Wednesday is here again and I can't wait to see what everyone is creating today. Remember those great stamps I picked up last week.

My creative thoughts are flowing and I started  positioning,stamping and using the glue.This is my journal book. In the photos I'm showing you the pages separately so you can see each page.



I think I'm going to write a short scary story in my journal. Enjoy your Wednesday and let the creative thoughts and ideas flow.

Rooster Blog Party2

 Rooster Party over at Bella Vista. Hello, This is my first blog party of any kind.  Here are  my beautiful roosters. This is Rusty , he watches over my kitchen while sitting up on my refrigerator.


This handsome fellow I met in the world wide web and I made a card with him to keep my butler company.



One day I was visiting an antique mall and I found this guy. Looks like he is telling her where to stay in the yard.She's pretending to listen but she really goes where she pleases.


These two are chatting on my stool I just finished decoupaging last week. He is giving her the talk too.I acquired them from my husband's Grandmother , she was a wonderful lady. I have enjoyed sharing my roosters with you.
