October calendar page

Hi guys, here's my October Calendar page for the ongoing challenge at The Craft Barn Blog. This month we have the prompts of Orange and pumpkins or fruit.
I've had a go at drawing it all myself. Using water soluble crayons and oil pastels to colour it in with. I was impressed with how the crayon built up the texture of a waxy pumpkin. I've also used some die cut leaves and Stamping using Lin Brown stamps and stazon inks.

I'm entering this into the following challenges,

Crackle with the Midas touch

Gosh third post today. I was definitely going to finish my tag for the challenges below. And so I have. I've used Tando Creative Diamond Circles stencil and Decoart mixed media crackle paint on to a paint sponged background. Then mixed metallic gilding flakes onto some spare gold die cuts. I've stamped the tag and embellishments with Kaisercraft number background and purple stazon. Not a lot going on because I really wanted to show off that stencil shape. Its my new favourite. 

Apologies for photos as they don't do the colours justice.

Happy crafting

Luv Dawn
