One more for the ATC365 challenge!
This time around it features a couple of different techniques.
Here is the harvesty make.
The background stamp was from a set by Indigo Blu.
I started out by stamping this in black archival ink. I then used a variety of Versacolor inkpads to blend a warm sunset ombre background.
I strengthened some of the ink from the corn stamping with a pigma micron pen to give some depth but still felt that it needed more – I toyed with the idea of a sentiment but instead spotted my quilling supplies.
Using the quilling comb I came with a corn design and then filled this with tight coils.
The matt/layer combination this time was gold and then black cardstock.
Very atmospheric, don’t you think?

Today is day 265 in the year. I knew that you will never make up to your announcement with one each day.
What do we learn out of this? Never put more into your mouth than you can swallow.

You know this before the year is out? Lol ;)
What I’ve learned this year is that life throws you a lot of obstacles – And it is friendship that helps us see it through.
I only set out on this challenge to make sure that I got some regular creativity into my life. I’ll keep going … The year isn’t up yet.

Keep going John but what is more important than reaching any target is that you create and enjoy the creations you make. I do and I’m enjoying yours immensely.
