I love the "Pineapple Express" Warm moist air from the Pacific moving up and over the Prairie Provinces. We have had a week of above average temperatures. Far above average. So far above that new highs were set all over the place, replacing maximum recorded temps from the 1920's.
Unfortunately I did not physically experience much of this glorious extended autumn, ( Are we not allowed to call it Indian Summer anymore? I don't like how political correctness has infiltrated so many of our traditions) as I am indoors all day and by the time we get home it is dark. But the store has lots of windows, so we see the sunshine and the customers come in with happy energy.
This next week we will return to normal weather patterns which keeps us around the freezing mark. Ho-hum. Grey November.
This months CKC kit to copy is Cocoa Daisy's City Park
Beginning with the patterned papers, my kit starts as thus:
Then a piece of specialty paper. Vellum with leaf print.
And a handful of off cuts to add variety:
Then I added a Simple Stories Harvest Lane kit.
Nine 12x12 pages offer cut aparts.
And the B sides are MORE cut aparts, except for these four patterns. (wishin' I had duplicates of these papers)
Now a sheet of boarders from Little Yellow Bicycle.
Now the sticker sheets from the Simple Stories kit.
Pockets from Simple Stories.
Stamps from CTMH and Bo Bunny
Puffy stickers and three tags.
Cute piks from a cupcake package.
All together now. The papers are looking as such:
And the whole kit as so:
Remember November |
oooo....close ups!
Come back in a few days (Thurs Nov 24) for the members' hop, in which I am participating. See you soon!
