The Kathryn Wheel, Part 11

Time to share my November page for Kate Crane's calendar project. I've used Tim Holtz's Faux Embossed Metal technique on this one, with lots of Perfect Pearls Mists from Ranger. In fact, pearls are the theme right now over at Simon Says Stamp & Show.

The shine on this one is pretty intense. I used Tim's Sizzix ticket dies and stamps on grey card stock to tone it down a bit. I have a full tutorial featured over on the Frilly and Funkie blog today showing how it came together.

Here's October all finished:

Power's still out. The President declared our county a disaster area yesterday which should help in getting help/restoration.  

Thanks so much for the visit. I appreciate it!

Marjie

Hi Marjie love both projects here and popped by F&F to view the how to . Glad that you are well and the damage to your home was limited to the power. I send huge wishes to you. My heart goes out to everyone but especially those who lost their homes.

Take care and keep warm

These are so cool, Marjie! And I love how the date columns are vertical on the hexagon shapes as opposed to the standard horizontal rows. Next year I WILL follow along!

Marjie...your calendar pages are so cool. I really love them. Your November calendar page is equally as cool as the others, just in a different way. I love all of the texture and the die cuts. And the days of the month done in tickets is really clever! Thanks for sharing your calendar pages with us at Simon Says Stamp and Show. <3 Candy

Cool and arty, just like you.
Wonderful pages and great to see that you have managed to schedule a post.
Let's hope things get moving and that your President stands by his word (of course, I suppose that depends on who will be in power come Tuesday).
Wishes
Lynne

Hi Marjie - sensational pages, and a great step by step over at F&F, so glad you were able to schedule it amidst the crisis. Hope that help soon arrives to start putting things back to normal (and fingers crossed for the right outcome for the most help!)...

Both these pages are sensational, Marjie! I love the colors you chose...really appropriate to the month. November certainly has been grey and bleak so far here in NC, although we have crisp sunshine today. I'm so sorry you're having to deal with the aftermath of Sandy. Praying you will be home and restored to some semblance of normal soon.

Fabulous pages Marjie! Just love the shimmer of those PPs x

[Marja]

Your pages are very cool and beautiful Marjie. I like it. A time ago you have mailed me and asked me about an email button on my blog. Sotty I lost your mail and I don´t know what your mean about that. maybe you can mail me again. Sorry.
have a nice weekend and my lovely greet

I love what you did with the November page! Amazing, great idea using the foil. Very unique. I can't wait to CASE this one. :-)

Hi Marjie, saw it and commented over at F&F but also love the October calendar page, fabulous colours. I saw on the news that he had declared it a disaster area, hope that will help to get everyone sorted quickly and that you are each given everything you need to get back to normal soon. Crafty hugs, Anne x

Oh the hive for October and it's pretty leaves are great. Silver intense is right, The idea of using the tickets is great. I keep eyeing that die it's fun. A wintery feeling spread....hope your power comes back on quick before the weather shifts. xox

[Renee Zarate]

Opps! I misread what you did here.....it only looks like the metal foil. Very cool.

[Teresa Jaye]

oh LOVE the ticket idea - fabulous! and the background is completely amazing. So sorry you're still without power - it's going to be a long recovery all the way around :(

[Diana]

Great pages! Hope things return to something close to normal for you soon.

[Lisa Sackett]

Excellent idea for using the tickets! Thanks for keeping us updated Marjie. Really hope you get power back quickly.

[Brenda Brown]

A great November page, the colours are amazing and so pearly. Love the use of the tickets.
I see 'Sandy' is on your October page - hope you are getting back to some form of normality, but I guess it will be a long job for you all.
Enjoy your Sunday.
hugs {brenda} xox

Great to know you are safe! Thought of you while watching all the Superstorm stuff on TV.

Lovely work, lovely colours. It is always interesting looking at your designs. Hope things improve for you and your neighbours soon.

[Anita Houston]

I love November;s background...yummy, and has the gorgeous metallic finish! I can only imagine the things you'll write on both of these months after Sandy. But October screams to me....LOVE the Autumn color and theme...so warm and cozy.

[Sandra]

What a beautiful page! I wonder if the page is intentionally black as of storm Sandy. Love the metallic shimmer and all the amazing embossing! So glad that I heard from you and that you've got the power back at your home! Thank you so much for joining us at Simon Says Stamp and Show. Hugs, Sandra
