No Tricks, just Treats!

Just in case you weren't paying attention, AUTUMN is my absolute favourite season and OCTOBER is my favourite month of the whole year. I look forward to the changing of the leaves, the cooler days and seeing pumpkins all over town. It's such a joyful time of year and it's the perfect time for us Canadians to celebrate Thanksgiving. (Which in Canada is a celebration of the harvest, in case you were wondering.)

Anyway, the only other person I know who is equally crazy about the same things is Janice of Papier Valise. In my email this morning was a heads up there were Hallowe'en/ Fall themed products to be had!! Of course I went right over to see and sure enough, I have been tempted! I have a whole list of goodies just too wonderful to resist.

The other thing that has me excited is the unveiling, as it were of design work done by her Artists In Residence. Jenny Crossley, Celine Navarro and I have the pleasure of working with Papier Valise and you can see what we've been up to in the brand new gallery! *Just be sure to hit your "refresh" button on each page to get the newest version of the site.

If you want to stay "in the know" and get updates about what's being offered by Papier Valise, you can join the Yahoo group. It's the best way to keep up with what's new and make sure you don't miss out on any of the cool, limited quantity goods that Janice brings in. Sometimes, once something is gone, it's gone!!

So what are you still doing here?!? Go! Look! Treat yourself!! *grin*

I looked at your stuff in the Paper Valise gallery, Lelainia, and it's wonderful! All of it.. my, you've been busy! I especially liked the colors of the "wish" piece - so bright and cheery. Good for you!
Hugs, Shari

I just visited the gallery and your work is gorgeous as is the other ladies. So much eye candy to look at. I love the metal numbers and the oversized math card with the children is fabulous...i adore it.

Oh fall is my favorite time of year too. :D Always has been and now even more so living in Oregon. I so love to take a walk around my neighborhood during the autumn months while inhaling the heavenly crisp autumn air and admiring all the trees with their leaves of the most scrumptious warm hues. Ahhhhhhh...I can't wait until the leaves start their yearly color shift!

Speaking of leaves, holy cow at the lovely autumn leaves Paper Valise just put up!!!! Ack! I gotta stay far away from my purse or I may not be able to stop myself from spending money I don't have...gotta save all that cash for Artfest ya know. ;)
