It’s Autumn Already !! :-)

Hi all :-) Well it’s back to school now,, the kids all went back today and the University starts next week ,, this summer has flown by ! It is still lovely and sunny here though and not TOO hot, lovely :-)

It’s time for a new theme on the House Mouse and Friends Challenge and this time it’s the lovely Dorte’s turn to choose the theme ,,,

AUTUMN and/or HARVEST 

ooh, talking of harvest, Ray was out picking his olives  yesterday and only collected one bucket full from our 2 trees,, which will make about a litre of oil, not a good crop this year, and he said he doesn’t think he will take them for pressing,,,, I said, oh take them, a litre is better than nothing, and he said ,,, but I will feel a right idiot (or words to that effect) taking a bucket when there are truck loads piled high pulling in ,,,, LOL ,,, he has a point eh !! :-)  did make me laugh tho :-)

anyhoo’s ,,, moving on to the challenge ,,, 

We are sponsored by House Mouse Designs  and they will be giving one lucky entrant a fabulous $25 Gift Certificate to their store :-)

I used this very cute image from a Joanna Sheen Leaves  set, the original stamp is much larger and is called Don’t Leaf Without Me :-)

I love these cute meeces having fun jumping onto the leaf pile and there is ickle Monica trying to pluck up the courage lol ,, :-) I coloured with Copics and you can’t really see so well on the photo but I chalked the sky using Pan Pastels.  

I will link all the products I used at the bottom of this post :-)
