It's a simple one for me this month as I've been in and out of the hospital with injuries, etc. Managed to slice a finger on my right hand real bad and had a hard time holding anything. I also missed quite a bit of work along with this. Also now I'm walking with a cane due to another injury. Sheesh! When it rains it pours!
Anyway the part of the poem this month goes like this:
Then to gather nuts is pleasant
First I put Gesso on the page and used 3 different yellows of Distress Ink. The background is darker in person. I used a Tim Holtz die which had a ton of leaves and acorns and cut them out of different colors. I used the paper as a stencil after and put distress inks through them.
I cut out so may leaves I was able to use them on another Art Journal for another group! I love when that happens!
The pheasant is from an image I printed out from the internet. Simple but to the point.
Two more months and we call it a year....
Oh Sybil, it sounds like you have been having a rough time. I hope you are on the mend soon.
ReplyDeleteGreat that you managed to make your October page, it is lovely. I know that Tim Holtz die and I love the multicoloured acorns tumbling around on the bottom of the page.
So sorry to hear of your injuries. I do hope you are on the mend now. Well done for crafting, it's a lovely page xx
ReplyDeleteGreat page, despite your injuries! Hope everything is mended very soon.
ReplyDeleteA great page. I used the same die and also have a big pile of leaves left over! Hope you are well on the road to recovery.
