Happy New Week

 Hi everyone. I hope you had a nice weekend.

I had a good weekend, but it was busy since my daughter and her beau came early Saturday afternoon and left later Sunday morning. They invited me  with them to go for a walk at University of New Hampshire where they both went to school and met. It was a nice afternoon and a much needed walk. My husband was off putting his boat away at his Mom's house; he came home very tired at almost dinner time. His mom is  getting to be quite a handful; hopefully she will be moving into his sister's house (not a great situation either) soon. It least when she moves it takes a little bit off my husband's shoulders, but obviously not his sister's.

 We did have a yummy birthday dinner Saturday night, even if I had to make the popovers twice. I greased the pans to the max for batch one yet I couldn't get them out of the pan. The second time around I greased and sprayed and that worked. Hurrah. 

 One gift I gave my daughter for her birthday was the Harry Potter version of the game Clue.  If you aren't familiar with the game Clue, you move around the game board visiting rooms, and you have to figure out who the killer was, what weapon they used and what room was where the murder occurred. This time you had to figure out using some Harry Potter, villains some deadly items from the series as well as some rooms at Hogwarts. The game also added another level with these discs you turned which opened and closed doors to each room and changed the secret passages. Plus there were Dark Arts cards that could make things tougher for any player.

We played until quite late, but it was a fun evening. And a good visit too.

I want to share another My Favorite Colour is October page for Tracey's challenge at Art Journal Journey

This is a page in Halloween journal. I stamped the quote in the background on my dirtied yellow paper. Then I painted the big moon. The witch is fussy cut and the kitty is a sticker. Good thing last week's Hunter's Moon isn't on Halloween this year.

 I also have another tag for Michele's All Hallow's Eve challenge at Tag Tuesday.

It's not the most complicated tag I have ever made, but it works for the challenge. Plus, I like it!

The background is this great piece of 6x6 paper I cut down and attached to a rectangular tag.  The zombie and the pumpkins are die cuts. I shaded the zombie a bit since I wanted him to stand out, but  he was a little too orange. I stenciled the words and then added a small metal pin moon head.

Have a great new week.  And thanks for visiting my blog.
