2 new books I'm reading. Both are cozy mysteries set in towns near me! "A Slice of Trouble", by C.Z. Kincaid, given to me from my friend, Karen. It's based around a bakery in the town of Vero Beach, Florida. Then, yesterday, while thrifting, I discovered "The She Shed" written by Leah Orr, around the town of Jensen Beach, Florida! I hope to find more in other towns near me! So fun! by @paperlover123

The cover of the latest #everythingjournal , that I started after my birthday last Saturday, and I used torn up envelopes, and stamps, and stickers from the cards I received, plus one of the birthday cards sent from my friend, Sandra! It was so gorgeous, with these stunning birds, I had to have it on the cover. I made the round closure from layers of envelope and stamped a flower on top , to hold the card closed. #singyourownsong by @paperlover123

A bunch of gorgeous #halloweenstitcheries cut from craft magazines that have been hanging around a while. A new #magazinejournal underway here. It will contain anything and everything and not in any particular order.....only goal is really not to have much of a goal, but all just fun. I got to use some of the washi tapes given to me by my DIL, Ginny, @ginitrix (and two of my all grown up grands, Donovan and Emily).....to finish out this page. by @paperlover123

Cooler temps, an autumn bouquet, a card I saved from a friend last year, and an iced coffee.....ahhhhh, now I'm in the mood! by @paperlover123

A fall journal made by me, AND my 10 year old granddaughter,Lily! I sewed the signatures (3) in for her and she chose the fabrics and glued into the inside of the cover, and drew the sewing lines on with a Sharpie on front and back cover! She drawing and coloring in it, and loves it! Yeehaw!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🍁🎃🍂🥰💕 by @paperlover123

I took painting class at the library taught by Susi Parriott, of Art-N Around in Stuart, FL. She provided these gorgeous clay pieces, and all the supplies to paint them. I added a few flat backed gems to mine for some sparkle, of course! by @paperlover123

Finished this gorgeous fall puzzle today that my daughter-in-law,@robynmamabird gave me! I'm sealing it and having it up for the season! Thankyou, Robin! ❤️🍂🍁🎃 by @paperlover123

My next page in the coloring book by Jayana @sakhiipaperstudio . My coloring is horrendous, but enjoy adding extra elements for a fall flair. Once I finish all the pages, I will post a flip through of this super fun #coloringbook / #gluebook .#fallcoloring by @paperlover123

I'm coloring in my dear, sweet friend, Jayana @sakhiipaperstudio 's new coloringbook. It's printed in Orlando, Florida, even tho she lives in India. Delivery is fast on Amazon. Excuse my coloring. The back of the pages are blank, so you don't have to choose one side or the other to work on, so no worries if you have bleed through from a wet marker. I glue booked on the backsides of each page, and in hindsight, should have colored before gluing which caused uneven texture. I'm just embracing it. I added an outer border of torn magazine picture (of a giant mum), and added a fall ribbon around the other 3 edges. I will probably come back and try to shade and outline some, but this is fun to create, and alter the pages, but show off Jayana's lovely pages. The link to purchase her coloringbook in in her bio. (I bought 3)!!! Love ya, J! Xoxo-

I'm turning one of my coloring books by Jayana @sakhiipaperstudio into a fall/Halloween fantasy book, with coloring and adds of other things for a "junk journal" feel. Just started, and much to go, but please visit Jayana's website to order or it is available to Amazon in all countries! by @paperlover123
