This is my first post for the Outlawz Challenge’s Sunday Songs and Rhymes as a design team member! I am super excited to be a part of the team! This one is following inspiration from “Autumn” by Henry Behn. I used two images by Makenna Kroulik combining them in Procreate.
I have been looking at some gorgeous red leaves that have fallen from some trees along the horse yard when I go out to feed her. My back has been totally out of whack for almost two weeks so today was the first day I could actually bend over to pick some of them up! The reds had faded quiet a bit but still oh so beautiful to me! So in a vain attempt to hold on to the beauty and wonder of this season I glued some on some watercolor paper I had smushed a lot of Distress Inks sprayed with water on. I added a coat of clear gesso just to the leaves and inked the edge with more Distress Ink. When it was relatively dry (!) I popped it on foam dots to add to the back layer. The fabulous designs by Makenna were colored with Copics and the panel edged with carved pumpkin Distress Ink. I made the sentiment in Photoshop and printed it in deep orange and layered onto cardstock. The image and sentiment were layered on the leaves with foam tape. I hope you will come play the challenge with us at the Outlawz Sunday Song and Rhymes Challenge! It will run through Dec. 11th!
