The 12 Kits of Occasions: October with Sharron "Autumn Days"

WONDERFUL PHOTO BY LINDSEY


Hi all! We're here with another 12 Kits of Occasions reveal. It's also one day early as we always post early in October - due to all the Halloween festivities. And I'm your hostess this month! I always love fall and all the gorgeous colors that make the world seem magical. Here in Kansas we finally have cooler temperatures and the ground is becoming covered with lots of those pretty leaves. I was lucky to find these wonderful patterned papers and fun images. Hope you enjoy your visits to all the designers' blogs. Just click HERE to be connected to the 12 Kits blog. There is also a supply list at the top of the blog in case you are interested in the supplies used.


Loved this Stamping Bella image!


Several turkeys were included but I only used one. I googled turkey photos to get an idea of colors. 


If I could have multiples of any of the patterned papers it would be this one. Don't the leaves just shout "FALL"! The stamped and die cut leaves were a wonderful addition. I really liked the patterns and stamped each with a light ink. Using additional color (I used Copics) really brings out the patterns.


I have loved this Mo Manning/Penny Black image for a long time and took the opportunity to buy her for this month's kit. She is so precious and I felt like she worked as the only image on this card.



October arrives in a swirl of fragrant blue leaf smoke, the sweetness of slightly frosted MacIntosh apples, and little hard acorns falling. We are in the midst of cool crisp days, purple mists, and Nature recklessly tossing her whole palette of dazzling tones through fields and woodlands.

Hope you have a wonderful Fall!!
