Happy November!



I can hardly believe it is November.

October just flew by - just like yesterday.
Here's yesterday's postcard. (that StampinUp! Botanicals set again. It has a toile-like look doesn't it?)

And here's today's postcard:

This one is using just the leaf stamp from that set stamped on top of a background made with a palette stamp (stamped a few times) using chalk inks.
Now that we're in November we'll be speeding toward Thanksgiving and Christmas - not that we mean to but doesn't it work out that way? I know I'm already thinking Christmas cards and plans for the holidays. Even in the grocery store last week I saw them consolidating the Halloween stuff so they'd have more room for the Christmas stuff. Which had been out for a while already.
Kinda makes you wanna scream doesn't it? oh well. Too much thinkin for so early in the morning. Have a great day all

I kwim about Christmas being around too fast. Seems to get worse every year. Then, when you make stuff for Christmas, you have to get an early start so I guess there is no getting around it.
I love that botanicals set. Did you stamp the leaves on the inked palette stamp?? I forgot about that cool technique. It looks great.
