joining Elizabeth again this week for T…
Trader Joe’s tempted me with a pot of teeny tiny mums which fit perfectly in a pretty tea cup I received in a swap some years ago here…
I haven’t done any Halloween creating this season but am using a few things I had made or collected over the years…
(I played with Pixlr above using a photo of my wooden Frida Kahlo that I made in a Michael deMeng class a few years ago)…
some really special surprises arrived in the mail recently…
Marion in Germany sent me this great postcard and some super rubber stamps … a cool machine stitched card and envelope arrived from Elizabeth and Bleubeard in Kansas = all such FUN!
Mr Magpie made a convincing Bromhilda some years ago and I was Mother Nature with real leaves pinned to my dress…
wishing you and yours a happy week full of fun…

Hello Patty, so glad you joined this week. I love all these pictures and stories and happy mail!! How sweet those little mums are and your teacup and pumpkins are pretty too. Love the costumes and cute picture. What a wonderful little shop ready for fall, we don’t have any like that here.
Thanks so much for sharing with us today. Enjoy your week!

Everything about this post is adorable. I love how you set the mum filled tea cup on that white pumpkin. THAT was clever! Bleubeard’s glad he’s not that black cat. He wouldn’t make a very good wall hanging.
Sorry to read you had trouble with Blogger. I had trouble, too, just trying to check my comments. I thought it was my computer until I read your message.
Glad you got the card. You got some really happy mail this week, that’s for sure. Marion’s postcard is adorable, and I LOVE that hand stamp. Note that no one sends me stamps, because they would likely languish in a drawer (grin).
Happy T today as we celebrate Halloween and Bleubeard’s birthday yesterday.
