lovely layers...

I'll say it again.. I love fall. Layers upon layers to be found...
Leaves layered on the ground in all shapes, sizes and colours...
Celebrations, holidays, and birthdays this month, there are a few...
Cozy sweaters layered over long sleeve shirts...soft scarves to keep out the crispness in the air...legwarmers and boot socks peeking out over comfy boots. I love dressing for fall.
Hot drinks with great spices...Chai lattes(my favourite) and pumpkin spiced ones too...Mexican hot chocolates.. great layers of flavours.. yum oh yum.
One of my favourite holidays this month. Hosting our first Thanksgiving for some of our friends without family out here..learning to make best of the situation...
Fall marks the start of hockey season.. watching the first game for my team(go Canucks go) as I type..games will get me through the winter and keep me sane..Fall is just wonderful!

Building on the layered theme..I had such a creative mode going the other night, playing in my craft room..using my new love; hand made cameos... be forewarned.-you will be seeing them regularly. I love the layering here..paper doilies, a crocheted doily..some lace from my aunt..ribbons, cameo, pearl drops, bling...love oh love.. I do hope my photos do justice..I can't wait for the recipient to get this card.. she is one of my most favourite people in the whole world...
Happy to add I stumbled across another new to me challenge blog Paper Sundaes..Going to add this to the current challenge of Lots of Layers
Now, I'm off to watch my team play,
Thanks for stopping by!
