Autumn has always been my favorite season. I love the crisp, cool air and the autumn colors. After the dry heat of late summer it makes me feel alive again.
Amy, your explosion boxes are amazing, but the rich vibrant colors of this one leave me in awe of your creativity! Soooooo beautifully finished.
Since I live in Florida, my favorite season is Winter when the temps are in the 60's-70's and the humidity is gone. You inspired me to make a Fall page which I posted so I hope you can check it out. Wishing you a tremendous, successful hop!Claire

Gorgeous colors on your explosion box. Great job. My favorite season is fall - mild temps, great smell to the air, wonderful colors. (I say we have 4 seasons in Michigan - winter, more winter, hot and September).

I love fall colors and visiting the pumpkin patch!
I just love this box and need to learn to make one. Your colors are perfect for it and the theme. It's beautiful! I have two favorite seasons: fall because I love the colors and the smell of the leaves on the ground and spring because of the pastel colors and the smell of the flowers. It's all about the smells for me. : )

Spring is my favorite season. It's when everything becomes new again and it all smells wonderful. Your explosion box it just wonderful, I went and got the instructions and I am also a follower of your blog. Thanks for sharing everthing.
Your explosion box is gorgeous. Everything about it is perfect. I love the colors of fall but in southeast Texas we don't have much of a fall. So I love the fall-into-winter season we have. Love the fall holidays and decorating for Christmas.
