Welcome October!

Fall is in full swing here in the Midwest! The streets are scattered with colorful leaves that fly in all different directions when you drive by and crunch under your feet when you're walking. Some of my favorite things about fall... the clean crisp air, and that crunch... seriously! Lots of great memories of leaf fights - throwing giant hand fulls at each other, and still nothing like jumping into a mountain of them! I do hate raking them all up and dragging them to the curb to get vacuumed up - but everything else in between is alright with me!

I've been working my way through this set of oval months by Serendipity Stamps. They are beautifully rendered and really a breeze to color. I love that each month depicts images appropriately suited to that particular month. October is no exception adorned with pumpkins and pretty fall leaves. I colored mine up with Copic markers, fussy cut it and then layered it with a label die on some colorful strips of paper. I cut the label die in half because it wasn't long enough to peek out of both sides of he oval image. The bow is button twine topped with a die cut leaf from Spellbinders Fall Foliage (yes it's a new one!). I think this would be a beautiful October birthday card, or just a great excuse to drop someone a line!

Thanks for having a look and Happy Fall Ya'll!!
