I finished up this altered cabinet card canvas this week and was pleased with the results. It had only been sitting on my art table for 5 months plus, but I just couldn’t put together the final embellishments on the piece. Finally, something clicked. I call her ” Bèbè Sadie” and used an original antique cabinet card photo. Old ledger paper, laundry clothespin, rusty pins in a vile, and bits of antique lace are scattered over the piece. A paper rose takes center stage on the most unique piece of lace.

The weather is getting much colder here and so many autumn leaves are at their peak. I wish they could stay a few more weeks before disappearing. Have a wonderful weekend.
