Happy Halloween

Getting cold

Today has been altogether too cold for my tastes. At least for this time of year but it is fitting with my mood. I had to euthanize my poor old cat. She was suffering from cat dementia and no longer enjoying life. I hope she is in a better place.

Puffball season

We found two big puffballs in the front yard. Too bad I didn't see them earlier, we could have had a feast. The gnomes had their pictures taken with them for you to see how big they are. I can just imagine the number of spores that will puff out of the larger one.

No followers

So far I have no followers. Partly because few people know I even have a blog and partly because this is so dry. I am considering a give away drawing for those who follow. I am just not certain what I should include. Let me think a day or two and maybe we can get something pretty awesome out before Christmas. That would be fun.

Halloween decorating

The gnomes are up to it again. This time they were decorating for Halloween when Wally got stuck. I got a few pics before helping Søren get Wally free.

Søren some how lost part of his mustache in the process and now has shaved it all off. He is the 1st gnome I have seen without a mustache.

I am not sure I like it. What do you think?

7th Challenge

The 7th Challenge was a kind of quiz. After taking it I decided it did not have a wide enough scope of answers to really evaluate my relationship with paper.

I thank the team at http://paperphilia.co.uk/paperphilia/blog/ for a week long of paper insight.

JOIN THE PAPERLOVE BLOG HOP! 

                                                 October 27th. It should be lots of fun.

Skipped 5th and found 6th

The 5th Challenge was instructions to write a letter. I did that the day before and was all caught up on my correspondence (at least I will be once I mail the things). So now that things are moving smoother I did the 6th Challenge which was to find something paper I love and write about it. 

Now that is so difficult. To choose just one thing when I love all my paper creations but I finally decided on my Post Ephemera Book made from an old map and postcards my STABA group sent monthly to each other for one whole year. I added stamps that had some connection to the month represented or the postcards sent that month.

 Each of us bound our postcards in our own way so it is truly a "One of a Kind Book".
