Etsy Bloggers Team September '08 Blogger of the Month

What can I say about this month's Blogger of the Month? Founder of our Etsy Bloggers Team. Leader. New Mom!!! Creative Genious. Very Busy Lady!

Really, I mean it most sincerely. There simply wouldn't have been an Etsy Bloggers Team like ours without her. She is kind and patient with newbies (like me) who get confused and sometimes need a nudge or a helping hand.


Here is a link to her blog:

Thank you so much for all that you do. You Rock lady!!!

Etsy Bloggers Team Blog Carnival for Sept. 2008 - Color

It's difficult to choose my favourite (favorite) colour (color). I love them all.

Before going on with the topic of this post, let's get the spelling thing out of the way. Usually I americanize my spelling just to save me the grief of explaining my spelling of certain words. I am Canadian. I spell color c o l o u r. I am Canadian and I spell favorite with a 'u'.

Now back to colour.

I have been especially fond of the fall and not necessarily because it meant a return to school with the nice clean new pencils, erasers, and notebooks. Ahh, the special freshness of beginnings. No, it was for the colours.

Fall is that special time of the year when the colour that rules the season is orange!

How I loved my orange crayon. Time for pumpkins and fallen leaves, black cats and haunted houses. I miss all that in a way.

Last year I indulged myself and did a fall painting of an outdoor stall replete with applys and pumpkins.

Orange is such a scrumptious colour. Hail to the orange!
