T Stands for THUMB and T on Tuesday

Hello and welcome to T Time with Elizabeth!! I am sharing my new mug with some warm cider in it, so good!! It's been perfect fall weather here, I love it and want it to stay!! I have slammed my thumb in the door tonight so this is very hard to type,will do my best to type but please excuse any mistakes and I won't using captials this time to make it easier too. I have been painting and worked on my calenders that Elizabeth inspired me with and want to share them with you today.
here is my Sept.calender all filled up. Just doing this reminded me of how much I miss my old scrapbook calendar pages. I have a whole album filled with them and enjoyed creating them with pictures that didn't get scrapped. used some of my extra pictures here and love it.would have had more but their size didn't work well enough for the squares. I added some fall stickers too.
here is the start to my October calendar....love making drips
I was inspired by this new paint...jack a lantern...so cool. then I punched out 31 yellow squares.
and here is the end result...happy October today!! I added some Halloween stickers to it and made the last square orange for fun.used some old alphas too, love using up my stash. I kinda wish you could see the drips better but I know they are there. already have plans for November and December pages too. Thanks Elizabeth for the inspiration to start these again, they weill be going into my pl album. now for some fall art. my finger is really throbbing so this will be quick, sorry ladies but didn't want to miss out on t time.

  1. I confess. Your calendar looks so much better than mine. I am not much for making calendars, especially since so many artists make wonderful ones.

    Sorry about your thumb. I hope it gets better soon, because that can be extremely painful. I also hope to see your week in your life, too. I know it will arrive about the time I least expect it.

    Your cider looks good. I found some whole cloves today I'm going to add them to cinnamon sticks and hopefully make some of my own cider one of these days. If not, I'll use them to make potpourri.

    Your brown bag art is fun. I really enjoyed it.

    Again, hope you heal soon. And thanks for sharing T with us, even though I'm sure it was painful.

  2. Ouch for you and your poor thumb Dawn...sure hope it feels better real soon!
    There is a nice harvesty feel to your T post today...
    I like the cooler temps too (had to find my house slippers again as all of a sudden the floor felt too cold for my favorite bare feet!)...
    Take care
    and
    Happy October to you and yours...

  4. i'm sorry you've hurt your thumb :(

    i'm drinking out of a cup that looks just like yours. i love the color for this time of year. i'm having coffee. we haven't bought any cider yet; it still doesn't feel like fall with highs here still in the upper '80sF.

    i hope your thumb is fine soon!

  8. You are on a roll, right my friend? Love the fall colors you have used for your paintings. The pumpkins on the brown bags are my favorite. Im happy to see your table like that. Mine was like this the entire Sept. I hope your thumb is getting better.

  11. Sorry that you hurt your thumb. That happened to me once, and my left thumb's nail turned black ... waited the whole year to outgrow it. Hope the sore goes away soon.

    LOVE so many Fall art you made, this year and last. The calendar with the witch's hat is cute!. Love the drips, yes reminds me of some caramel sauce. But most of all, I'm looking forward to more of your Fall mandalas :). Hugs.
