The Double D Challenge is October what does it mean to you? October means celebrating our grandson Chase and his birthday. This year it’s his 10th..where does the time go even during this crazy year of Covid.
So for my October birthday card I pulled out a Sizzix birthday hat embossing folder, the sentiment is from the Pretty Pink Posh balloon shaker die but I cut out the sentiment from the balloon and inserted them into my cut out panel. The layering panel was one that I created awhile ago. Lego Harry Potter is an image from a free coloring page that was colored using my Stampin Up colored pencils and die cut the numbers from Momenta number dies. Thanks to Stamping Buddy Bonnie for a reminder to use our embossing folders and to Gerry for the awesome use of those free coloring pages.
Although Double D Challenges created a gorgeous mood board I decided to celebrate October in a different direction. I do love this time of year, the leaves changing colors but not the clean up, the brisk fresh air, pulling out scarves to wear and of course Halloween but celebrating our first grandchild’s birthday is the best thing about the month to me.

Your grandchild is certainly the best reason to celebrate! Your card is great with the embossing and that fun inked panel. Great job on it!
I agree – Grandkids are the best reason to celebrate! Such a cute card!
Thanks, Diana.
Thanks, Golda, I appreciate your supportive comments.
What a cute card. I love the Harry Potter image. I agree with Golda – Chase is the best reason to celebrate October
What a great card for your grandson’s ‘double digit’ birthday, he will love it. He is by far the best reason to celebrate October. The years do go by way too fast, our oldest grandchild also has an October birthday, she just celebrated # 34
Super cute card! Love the Harry Potter image and all you used to create this masterpiece. I do not have grandchildren so do not relate to those who do, but can definitely enjoy children’s birthday cards.
I can not believe he is 10. Where does the time go. Such a great guy card for your little man.
Awesome card; I’m sure Chase will love it! We are all huge Harry Potter fans in my house. He looks cute as a Lego figure – lol!
Thanks, Lisa, when Chase told me that he is going to be Harry Potter for Halloween I thought it would be fun to add to his birthday card too.
WOW … Happy Birthday to Chase from the Double D Gang!!!
Great card and I’m sure he will love it!! Thanks so much for joining in the fun at our Double D ‘October’ challenge! Good Luck and we hope you’ll come back often.

I like that for you, a month is about family as much as about fall. You did a great job on this card and I’m sure Chase will love it. Your take on the challenge is just right.
Thanks Johanna. Although I did follow the mood photos, Chase’s birthday is the most important event in October for us.
