My Heart's Quest Fantasy Challenges Blog at TFATU #11 DT projects on 1 Nov 2025

  Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog!

why: The purpose of this personal blog posting is to showcase my owner/DT inspiration projects for Heart's Quest Fantasy Challenges Blog or HQFCB. We're still using the old TFATU address and I'm hoping to give HQFCB it's own blog address in 2026. For now, we can be found through The Fairy And The Unicorn. During 2024 and 2025 we've been having a fantasy focus option each month with November's having 2 options: Yeti and/or Abominable Snowman. We want to help our readers and participants to work ahead and get ready for the holiday and winter season activities and/or New Year wishes. The main theme is always 'anything goes fantasy'. Not whimsical. The creatures, characters or accessories need to be connected to fantasy fiction books/movies, mythology and/or fairy tales. 

I've chosen to have Project #1 as a little pumpkin shaped card showing a pumpkin house and gnome for AFG theme. He still has flowers blooming and has his watering can in his hands, ready to go!

For Project #2 I've chosen a Bigfoot clipart image for the November fantasy focus option.
