Here I am to remind you that the latest Quest over at QUOTH THE RAVEN is halfway through. QTR is an Edgar Allan POE based Challenge site and the theme for Quest #32 is RAVING RAVENS, so basically you can anything you like as long as there is a Raven on it somewhere.
Here is my midway inspirational piece.
The background and elements used are from the GOTHIC POETRY SET by DEVIANT SCRAP and the Raven (from Smeared Ink) has been fussy cut and layered up 5 times. I think actually I should have 'flipped' him to make him look the other way now that I sit and look at this more !!
I printed out some POE pictures onto assorted backing paper and then cut 1.5" circles with my punch and folded the edges over to make 1" squares and stuck them in a random pattern on the right there. The whole background paper contains the poem "The Raven" By E A POE.
Challenges I am entering:

ReplyDeleteIke,
ReplyDeleteWhat a brilliant project!! I am just blown away, love that you punched circles then folded and added Poe pix. So cool that the entire poem is faded into the BG. I admire you patience with layering up 5 times for the Raven. This is very stunning, you should be so proud of this!
Peace,
Kristy
