This card was done yesterday from a leaf picked in my yard & coated with several layers of gel medium. I covered the whole card in a mesh so as to keep it from crumbling off later, if it will, I don't know.
I was appropriate that I did this autumn card because it is now really cold. My Dahlias died during the night, our first frost. I picked my last bouquet yesterday of the season and I didn't know it. This card did not come together well, nor is it a very happy subject, even though I like Autumn very much, its sad when the tomatoes die, the dahlias die & the garden takes on that brownish, wet, dark, tired look.
The sun came out now, so its not so bad. Its very cold, though. I think I'll watch from inside.
I nearly forgot to put his one on the blog. I like it but it is one of so many, that if I don't get them recorded, I forget.
I don't mind bugs. In fact, I won the admiration of my son, when he was about 10 for holding a hissing cockroach and a stickbug (separately) on the palm of my hand at an exhibit at our OMSI (Oregon Museum of Science & Industry). I have other things which "bug" me and I don't tell him or his father so they can't make me crazy with it....
