Red Hall. Themed to Canada (yr-long exchg)

This is for one of those on my year-long list. Don't know if they celebrate Halloween in Canada, but she's getting it anyway!  ;D

folded pen and pp for name 

Fall trees to Sarah (new penpal!)

I love this fall-themed magazine page and now that I have clear env.'s, I rest assured they'll arrive in-tact (no ripping!)

And the leaf stamps are perfect!

fudebyori metallic brush marker for her name.

before pic. So pretty,

and the back side. Great quote!

Fall themed to Nele

This was a salvaged env. from a disastrous attempt at masking (specifically with my white grease pencil). I turned it into a "blustery leaf day" with book leaves because of National Book Month!

Tried my best to cover up another name under the leaves with ink and embellishments. 

(b/4 adding stamp)

pp for name

back side.

The dark ink says, "Welcome Fall" and the silver script lettering is an autumn quote: "a falling leaf is just summer's wave goodbye". I love this type of layering.

All the goodies I sent her. (the bottom insert, "Magic", matches the same ink/style used on the orange env. (fineliner and white ink)

And close ups:

Mini env. from a book page

This is a practice sheet as I was experimenting with my fineliner (but I cannot remember the ink used, however, I love the raised effect!)

Book-themed to Lina

One of the first book-themed envies to go out this month!

(i love these leaf stamps! BUT I do wish the po sold more Halloween themed ones)

and similar one to my oldest!

Book Themed (Banned Book Week!)

October is such a GREAT month! Not only for Autumn and Halloween-themed envies, but it's National Book Month as well. So, I sent this to Zoe late Sept. using a book page for her name

Her last name could have been better, but I used the wrong darn pen at first. Still fun colors on red.

I messed up the O! (upside down)

Practice Sheet turned Hall. Envie (to Nava)

It's October!!! Time for some Halloween and Fall themed envies!

This is from a practice sheet of free-flow italic script.

practice pages (blech, not good!) from a recent online class:

wrote some script lettering in-between

Salvaged envie to Sarah

Got a new pen pal and thought I'd send her this collage env. I salvaged from some spilt ink.

Was working with green and my darn bottle flipped over. So I tried my best to make a design out of it. The theme is "End of Summer/ New Beginnings".

close up.  I know the book art is upside down, but I did so purposely.
