NOW TRADEDI made this for this week's TMTA challenge which is to use a food/drink related theme. I took a slightly sideways view of it, starting with the large pear which is a stamp but I don't know who by!
The background is of course Distress Inks with a Tim Holtz image stamped over it. The small pear image is from an Artchix collage sheet and the face is from a Teesha Moore collage sheet.
I was in a slightly off the wall mood with this (and the one I'll show you tomorrow), getting away from vintage for a change. The more I play with Distress Inks the more I love them, particularly for colour shaded backgrounds like this.
And the story? Well as you can see the background is an accounts sheet, and our heroine runs a factory making pear-shaped items. However in these troubled financial times she can see that the balance sheet is going downhill and disaster looms. Should she bail out now? Will a handsome investment banker come along to rescue her .... watch this space!!

ReplyDeleteIncluding me!! (pear-shaped that is). This is beautiful, Rosie. I love it. For some reason, the pear is always a wonderful choice as centre-piece in a work of art. You have done it proud.
