Practical Magic blog hop (film for me, but you can use the book)

Some lovely ladies got togther and decided to host a blog party to celebrate the film and/or book Practical Magic, and they created a blog specifically for the party and invited us all to join in. The blog and all the details can be found HERE, along with the list of all participants. Now I have to admit, I hadn't even realised there was a book, but after reading the initial blog post, I thought I'd check out our area's online library catalogue and see if they had it in large print anywhere (I can no longer read normal size print) And, joy of joys, they did have a large print copy, and it was actually on the shelves in one of the local libraries! I can ask for the books to be sent from wherever they are to my local place for me to pick up, but that can sometimes take a while, so, knowing it was available, I scurried off to the library. But, after searching the shelves myself, I asked one of the librarians for help. She confirmed that according to the system, it should be on the shelves, but also noted that it hadn't been checked out or moved since early 2008. So we both checked everywhere possible, and she also did some rummaging around in their storage spaces, but sadly there was no sign of the book. But, all is not lost, I watched the fim instead, which I have of course seen before but not for a while.
So anyway, enough of my rambling, this is the piece I made inspired by the film. And yes, since the official blog party is on the 25th of September, this post might seem early. Unless you're in Kiribati, in which case it's right on time, as they've just started the 25th as I'm typing :P
And of course, I had to use a few challenges as well, lol, challenges are becoming such a large art of the creative process for me. So, here are some challenges that I'm entering as well. A few of these have Autumn as a theme, so for thoose ones, I'm entering because my project uses autumn colours and falling leaves, plus the film on which it's based is set in October)
