Isn't it wonderful to wrap up with scarf, hat and gloves and walk with that pale sunshine on your face? Returning home to a steaming hot cup of cocoa and a ginger biscuit? Oh the delights of Autumn.
Despite Autumn being my favourite season I found it very difficult to come up with something for this challenge. Thanks Zoe! I had tins out for redecorating, boxes, journal, calendar dates ... just about everything. What did I do in the end? A tag.
So here is my tag - I first coloured it with Distress Inks - Bundled Sage, Forest Moss, Rusty Hinge (fave) and finally a touch of Gathered Twigs around the edges. Then I used Sepia Archival Ink to stamp some autumnal images from Graphicus (Autumnal Hedgerow) on the edges. I inked up a plastic letter "A" for Autumn, then I got to thinking.
I wanted something different, didn't want the usual leaves and things. So is Autumn just about leaves etc? No, we hear about "living in our Autumn Years". Off to one of my PaperArtsy boxes for the perfect image. One image later (stamped and embossed), a piece of old negative (glad I saved it) and some copper wire netting that I have had for ages and not used, a bit of bandage with various Distress Stains on it and voila! The tag is complete.
Not too sure about it but here it is. A bit close to my mad couple of days before the biggie one. Hope you like it. Now to go and see the delights of Just for Fun and what the Design Team have come up with - some great stuff going on.
