For my landscape photo today, I have a moody morning scene at the bridge beside the house.
A photo from the Fall Festival
Out in The Shire, 'MR BLACK' and BON JOVI are enjoying a play in the leaves.
HENRY is concerned that his salad is turning brown!!
and this sweet female Cardinal pretends she DOESN'T look like a chicken!!!!!
Back on the home front, something a little special for the occasion today. Does everyone remember the Haunted House that I made out of pizza boxes a couple of years ago? Well my good friend Niki of Pawsitively Creative Crafts suggested I grab some shots of Nemo checking out the house. Great idea Doc!!
Last but not least, my macro for today.
That's it for today. Thank you for stopping in and for all the amazing comments. If you have any questions or interesting tidbits about today's wildlife, please let me know.

Wow Pamellia, your Halloween card is soooo classy!!! I have never tought that a Halloween card could be sweet, too! :D Breathtaking work of art! Amazing papers and details, love expecially the distressed banners and that white pumpkin!!
ReplyDeleteYour furry/feathered friends are always cute and fun, that cardinal made me smile so much! And the shots of Nemo checking out the house are so striking!!!! Fabulous!!! He seems a bit worry, too... strange place... eheh :D
Amazing shot of the bridge at early morning, pupkins and such a fabulous macro of these beautiful leaves!
I think that Henry has arrived at the Shire during spring time... He seems young... and peraphs he will have nothing to eat this winter! I didnt know, but I don't think he will go to lethargy. I'm worry for him :(
Wonderful creation Pamellia with lots of lovely layers. Hugs, Veerle
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty card, Pamellia! Love those layers and the tiny flowers. I remember your pizza box creation--just the right size for Nemo! Wonderful photos especially the sweet critters!
ReplyDeleteA card from you is always a treat! Love this pretty Halloween card, beautiful papers and stunning design as ever.
ReplyDeleteThe first photo is amazing, so atmospheric, would make a fabulous Halloween card on it's own!
Your little hamster looks so cute exploring the haunted house...wonder what he's thinking....

So very Shabby Chic Halloween make Pamellia! Love that background paper with Halloween writing on it. I'll have to get some of that and just admire it. I have such hard time cutting into expensive papers. Have a stack of them and just look at them from time to time...
ReplyDeleteThank you for the inspiration.

Love the shots of Nemo in your little haunted house .. he is so cute and your little house looks amazing!! Of course, I adore your nature shots .. your morning piccie is superb as are all the rest as well. Absolutely wonderful!! hugs xx
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card Pamellia, is there a Canadian supplier for those beautiful papers? And Nemo in the haunted house is just too adorable, what a cutie! Deb Xo
ReplyDeleteStunning Pamellia, not being a huge fan of Halloween, this is the kind of card that I absolutely love for this season! I adore how your photos also mark the day, that morning shot is incredible, and Nemo, - he is just adorbale (as are your other furry friends)... and trust me I am never going to forget that amazing haunted house you created.... xxx
ReplyDeleteAww Pamellia absolutely stunning Hun, the colours are fabulous, love it.
ReplyDeleteSorry I haven't been around much Hun, it's even a bit hectic here the last few weeks.
Hope you are ok and all your fur babies.
Hugs Julie xxx
Pamellia, no one can make Halloween look so feminine and delicate the way you have! I love these papers and how you've layered them up with your gorgeous bow, frame and flowers! The pumpkin charm looks great in white--the perfect shabby touch!
ReplyDeleteI love your landscape moody shot--it just screams Halloween to me! Oh, how I wish you were here to photograph my Halloween yard; I know you could make it look amazing! Your wildlife photos are amazing and the subjects are beautiful! I especially love the cardinal/chicken one! Nemo looks a little frightened by what he sees in your amazing Halloween House! So good to see that is getting some post time again! You can believe I visit it often! Sending huge hugs to you!
Beautiful card and wonderfully festive post!! Your photos skills are just incredible Pamellia!
ReplyDeletehugs,Jackie xx
What a sweet and gentle Halloween card in comparison to most! Very very pretty and 'safe' Pamellia.
ReplyDeleteThe shots of Nemo in your haunted house are PRICELESS. Wow. Those shots should be in an animal magazine somewhere on the cover for Halloween next year. Just amazing. Nemo is soooo adorable!
Loved seeing all your forest family too. They look fat - getting ready for the winter - so glad. Hoping that you will be for you to get to The Shire when there is snow and ice on the ground. Knowing you... and your love for the outdoors in all kinds of weather - you will!! j.
You have showcased those Pion papers beautifully in this Halloween card and in a shabby style too, genius. I love the little pumpkin nestled in the seam-binding bow.
ReplyDeleteLorraine
Now that's a card! That's more than a card. That's a work of art.
ReplyDeleteI love your outdoor shots. So beautiful and I had a little laugh at the animals. Such cute things. It makes me want to take a little more time to appreciate the awesomeness around me. It's easy to get way too busy and pass it all by, eh?
First-your card is spectacular and I am flabbergasted about how you can add such an elegant touch to a Halloween card!?! My brain is overwhelmed with it. Haha! Gorgeous, absolutely gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteYour pics are so fun! I think Mr. Scruff and Bon Jovi would have a spectacular time frolicking in the Shire together, as long as their food stash isn't around to fight over. I am totally in love with Nemo and the Haunted House!!!!!!! What great pictures and details you have captured. I want to make him a little hat and scarf! Love love love it! And love the haunted house of course. Great minds came together for little Nemo's photo shoot! Can't wait to see what he gets into next. Hugz to you muffin! ~Doc
Not often you can say a Halloween card is beautiful but your is Beautiful indeed! I just love to see all your photos Pamellia! The hamster in the haunted house was pretty darn clever :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome Halloween card! Wow, I do love these papers! Super fun patterns and great colors! I love all the fun details...always loaded with goodies!
ReplyDeleteYour photos are amazing and I love your cardboard box haunted house and so does Nemo, lol! I hope you had a wonderful Halloween!
Hugs,
Sherrie K
What a super cool Halloween card Pamellia!! LOVE your shots- specially of the mice and the amazing macro leaf! :)
ReplyDeleteSuchi xx
Oh my goodness ... your card is gorgeous!! I really love the way you brought such elegance to Halloween ... And that little guy checking out your amazing house is so cool!
ReplyDeleteOh no, not Linda. I am so sorry Pamellia.
ReplyDeleteDionne xx
Oops! Nearly missed this Halloween Treat!! No matter how long I study your layers I just can't seem to get mine even halfway near the beauty of yours! Big Hugs, Chrisx
ReplyDeleteAre Halloween cards supposed to be quite so gorgeous? Amazing papaers and I love the little pumpkin charm, just too cute.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful nature shots again today, I just love them all and putting Nemo in the Haunted House is such a great idea.
Dionne xx
A really charming card - love the vintage nostalgia of it, and great to see Halloween in such delicate colour tones for a change. The photos of Nemo checking out your stunning house made me laugh - I've just shown them to Cestina (the dollhouse collector) and she loves them too.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous Fall photos - the autumn leaves are such a lovely feature along with the squirrels and co. Another fabulous macro picture too.
