There's Magic In The Air: 10/4/09

The "micey" nice person to receive the random drawing prize for participating in last weeks challenge is: Gramma Stamper - Barb

Please send me your address at magicintheair@att.net so I can get this out to you. CONGRATS and ENJOY!

Well, here we are already in October and it is officially Fall here in Indiana! I have a feeling we are going to see a lot of fall colors for these images this month! First, I want to thank Helen and Deedee for gracing us with their wonderful talents for the month of September! Second, I am excited to introduce to you Amanda and Dawn our Guest Designers for the month of October. They too, bring a lot of talent to the month of September and I feel very blessed to have them come play along this month. So, why don't you give them a nice welcome!

Since I love October, I am so excited to bring you some wonderful images for this month. We are going to kick off the first 2 weeks with some cute Halloween images I hope you will adore. Then we are going to move into more of a fall/harvest theme. I realize not everyone has the change of seasons, but I find these images to be very versatile.

This week's image is called "Mouse Candy". One thing you should know about me is that I am a big rodent fan! I love mice and rats and I mean the real ones. Of course I mean only as pets, not necessarily the wild ones running around the house. We have 3 rats as pets right now and have had a mix in the past years. I know, I know there will be lots of you that will go "eek" and some that know and understand exactly what I mean. As pets, mice and rats make wonderful pets and I would have a rat any day! :O) So, you may see lots of mice and rats in future images! LOL...

("Mouse Candy" is no longer available for free... I am in a process of getting a website up and going to make available to you not only these images, but many more originals by me in digital form and in the near future photopolymer as well... it's all in "the works"! In just hours a new free image will be released)

This weeks challenge is brought to us by Nilla. She would like to see you use the image I have provided "Mouse Candy" and use the colors orange, black and one other color of your choice on your card

The prize for this week’s random drawing for whoever participates in this weeks challenge and links their work back here is:

LOL.. OK... NOT really... that is our lovely rat Louise... she is really not the prize! I would have one upset little boy if I gave her away, and maybe an upset participant if they opened up a package and found a rat! OK.. I was just being a rat with a little humor and just couldn't stop myself! So, now the real prize for the random drawing will be:

Now for the oh so talented...
