October


Here's my October tag for The Craft Barn Calendar Challenge week 10 where the theme is to use TREES.


Well I was thinking of doing halloween for October but instead decided to go with an autumnal theme.  I clear embossed the Beech Tree from Oak House Studio and then swiped the tag through Distress Inks - a mix of Barn Door, Spiced Marmalade, Mustard Seed and a bit of Pine Needles spritzed with water.  I blended Vintage Photo and Pine Needles around the edges, added some brown ribbon and the calendar.

Only two more to go and I can't quite believe I've actually managed to keep up!!  Hope you like - thanks for popping by and for any comments too!!

    Perfect colours Elaine and I love your tree image. I always adore trees with their leaves but then they are still amazing without them - nature is so clever!
