October, Already

Right own up who stole September? Not quite sure where September went, I can't believe that it's October already and hopefully it won't go as fast as last month. I'm rushing in today with a card to add to the NBUS challenge over on Darnell's blog, I made this card using a stamp from Chocolate Baroque which I bought a couple of years ago and have only just go around to using. It's stamped onto Kraft card and embossed with white embossing powder then coloured using pencils. Of course I made the normal four to go into the box ready for December which is approaching rapidly now.



I'm also going to enter this into the following challenges:
Craftyhazelnuts Christmas Challenge - Anything Goes/ Option Black, White and one other colour
Craftyhazelnuts Christmas Challenge Extra - Anything Goes

Thanks for taking the time to look and your kind comments which are always appreciated.

Loving the robin perched on a mince pie. See you went to a Tim Holtz event too which I guess was wonderful and I'm envious.

I need December to be at least 6 Months away! I'm sure time speeds up . Think I must have crossed over into a different space. If I spot any little green men I will let you know. Your cards looks do good either the band of mirror card around the Robin. Matches his red breast perfectly. We had one visit in the garden last week but he was quite drab looking. Hugs Mrs A.

Honestly I have not been drinking.! That should say your card looks so good with the band of mirror card. Try again. Hugs Mrs A.
