Sorry readers for not posting but I've been away on my hols and then Mr Mojo went on his too! However here's my next square for The Craft Barn's Calendar Challenge where the words for September are BROWN and TREES/LEAVES.
For the background I've used Rusty Hinge Distress Ink and then sprinkled around the edge with Dark Brown Brushos. Over this I've stamped the Sycamore Leaf stamp from Oak House Studio with Rusty Hinge again. The Beech Tree is also Oak House Studio, inked with Potting Soil Archival and clear embossed. I've used a script stamp from 7Gypsies with Emerald Archival to ground the tree and finished with the calendar.
I'm also entering this is the Craft Stamper Magazine's Take It, Make It challenge where anything goes and I've definitely used stamps!!
I can't believe we only have 3 more months to go so guess I should start thinking about construction - it's going to be an A shape calendar but not sure whether to bind it at the top or use rings.... Anyway thanks for visiting and thanks for commenting - they are much appreciated!!

I stick my pages on my wall each month so I don't need to think about binding but the year seems to have gone so fast. I love the colours you have used and that sycamore leaf stamp is gorgeous.
