Hello everyone, just popping in to share my mid month inspirational piece for Penny Black and More where we are still going along with the theme of Autumn colours with a sketch option.
I followed the sketch and colours at the beginning of the month so this time I have just gone with the colours, they are ones I could happily work with year round. I masked a piece of centura pearl (reverse side) around the edges to create my frame and sponged Pan Pastels to create my background then stamped Penny Black 4271L Winters Ledge with black archival ink and used the edges of the stamps to extend the image cross the bottom and sides. The sunrays filtering in the corner were sponged with red pepper adirondack ink and I have used the first two lines of Keats To Autumn which I printed on the computer.
Thought you might also like to see a couple of photos of the help I always get from Poppy when I try and take photos on the utility room steps. I often use that location on duller days as there is good light from the glass door but Poppy always sees it as an invitation to join in and the opportunity for a bit of extra attention.
I would like to enter my card for:

I love the way Poppy's fur echoes the colours of your creation!! Perhaps she has an artistic eye for colour? Your extension of the stamp is so effective here & I love the way those birds just make the whole so atmospheric. The matting is beautiful.
