Text Reads: Sitting in my garden, I wish that summer would be never-ending. But as I look at the asters, they are so happy with the fall weather. The bees are just as busy as ever in preparation of the change. I find contentment in knowing we each need a restful period in life.
Construction: I started with ArtPlay Palette Verdure Artsy Paper #1 for the background then I rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise and placed the FotoInspired Template Pack 2Z #4. I clipped my main photo to the main stitched fotomask and overlayed with texture (Free HG DESIGNS texture overlay #6) in blend mode Soft Light. I clipped my photos to the two frames, moved them and deleted one double frame. I overlayed the two photos with texture (Free HG DESIGNS texture overlay #6 & #15) in blend mode Soft Light.
I removed a couple of the FotoInspired photo masks on the left and placed Artsy Transfers Verdure #3, re-coloring the brown stain. I placed a duplicate of the stain in the lower left corner.
I added parts of the MultiMedia Branches No. 14 #3 in the upper right corner.
I placed “Autumn” Wood Word from Autumn WordART Mix No. 1 under the rectangular photo. I added Verdure WordART Mix No. 1 Wood Word “Lost” above the circle frame and added Autumn WordART Mix No. 1 Word Transfer #1 underneath with blend mode Color Burn. I then added “thoughts” from Verdure WordART Mix No. 1 “Silent Thoughts” deleting the “Silent” text.
