Wrap Up

And That’s A Wrap – October 2021

Posted on by Empire of the Cat

Welcome to this month’s wrap up!

Here’s everything I’ve managed to achieve this month all in one place . . .

So that was October . . .

So that was October and it was a busy month on the blog as I took part in a 31 Day Halloween Blog Hop, as well as my usual level of art journaling and also did some of the Life Book 2022 Taster Sessions, joined in with a few challenges, made a couple of animation videos here and here, plus T Stands for, and WOYWW etc.  In the middle of this, I realised I was making so many pages this month, at least double what I usually do, that October could really have its own book so that became my mission to complete all the pages before the end of the month and get it bound into a book.  Did I make it?  In the end I created 36 journal pages this month!  Thirty one of them are bound together in the October book, the other five are filling up pages in other books and are not all directly Autumnal or Halloween related.  I also managed to bind the book together and decorate the cover on Halloween so it was down to the wire in the end!

If I think of anything else noteworthy, I will add it later, meanwhile here’s the wrap up!

My AECP Journey:

Oops, no classes completed this month

I still remain in Level 3 after passing Level 2. Level 3 is the final level, there are classes I need to do and then an “exam”. I really need to get back to this but 2020 changed a lot of things for a lot of people, including me.
