There's never a wrong time...

 ...is there? Hi everyone, I'm a little late with my Calendar Journal pages.

We came back last night having taken a detour to come home. Photos will follow!

We seemed to be having lots of stop offs for coffee and cake during our short break and the way things are heading I think there will be a few more occasions this month(and next)so my images this time are just that (although you can have tea or hot chocolate if you wish)

I used a stencil with poppy seedheads on and another with a postmark and text on.

The stamps are from Aall and Create (Bipasha's designs again) which I stamped on to tissue and coloured on the back so that the stamping showed. I used a calligraphy pen to write the month and the words.

It is also my entry for Art Journal Journey where I opted for Elizabeth's Food (sorry Bleubeard - no collage fodder today) theme.

Here is last month filled in

Almost all of you know I very rarely have a whole cake - usually hubby has two thirds of anything we get.

The exception was when we went to Westonbirt National Arboretum - the Donut truck was the first thing we saw when we set off to enjoy the Autumn colours and the last place we went to. I had only mentioned to hubby the day before that I really loved hot donuts. We bought a bag of 8 mini donuts and I ate 4 of them.......and savoured every mouthful - it will be a while till I have any more!

Sadly, during the recent rain and winds lots of leaves had already fallen but there was still plenty of colour

The same tree as we got closer

The paths are well laid out and easy to follow.

There will be more photos in my next post.

Thanks for looking, Chris
