OCTOBER CHALLENGE

Welcome, I completed my October challenge at  Birds Nest Books and Junk Journals a private group on Facebook. If interested you can join, The Admin and Hostess LeAnn makes it fun and there is a lot of inspiration from this group. Keeps me enjoying using my stash. The challenge  was to make the use of  the letters  O C T O B E R.

I started this way back Oct 3rd and just couldn't come up with the right process.  Lost my MoJo, on call for DH doing crops, special company from Wisconsin visiting and a few precious people dying.  So I
made  this tag:

"O "range flower, "C" chair, "T"twine/tag, "O" val necklace, "B"rown, "E"yes, #8, "R"ounded edges

But I wasn't happy with this and I wanted to make the Pumpkin shaped journal.....Ideas came, so here it is

First process was to cut the pumpkin from cardboard and paint orange and green for the stem
The Cover set up to show OCTOBER   and  "O" for orange
"C" for Cat/Crows and room for notes
"T" for Two Tags 
"O" for Owl room for notes    "B" for  Beautiful Butterfly. The Brown Button up in the right hand corner is covering a mistake.  I punched the wrong side for the circle binder
"E" for Envelope and a stamp that has the Earth on it... The last letter "R" red leaf I gathered and the Robin. 

THE END.     Thanks LeAnn, it was a fun process, once things started to click.  And "Thanks" for visiting and those precious comments.  Stay Safe and enjoy this last week of OCTOBER
