Mixed Media Monday - Monochromatic

Here is my piece for the Monochromatic theme over at Mixed Media Monday this week. And no surprises that I have chosen a green themed piece. The image (Cherry Pie) is stamped on green tissue paper and adhered to painted and stamped canvas. Venus is stamped with a Ma Vinci alphabet and the background is water-colour paper that has been painted, sprayed and stamped.
And I thought I would share the canvas I have in the current Somerset Studio - it ("Dreaming of Provence") is at the top left. I have been reliably informed by both Annie and my husband that they wouldn't have picked it as mine! Not quite sure what that means...but I was pleased it was selected as I enjoyed making it and it was the only thing I sent in (I usually wouldn't bother to only send one piece - the odds just don't seem that good!!) Below is a scan of the canvas as well. The wonderful patterned fabric tape at the bottom of the canvas is by 7gypsies - isn't it gorgeous? It was sent to me by Stamping & Papercraft a while back as part of a Stamper's Challenge article - I am obviously going to have to find an Australian stockist! I really do love nearly everything 7gypsies makes ( the nearly is in there in case I have missed the potential one thing that doesn't appeal to me :))

PS Needless to say that I love wavy copper tape too. And printed tissue paper (also 7gypsies). And Moon Shadow Glitz Spritz as used liberally on my painted painted background.

Classy version of monochromatic theme. I did one on the color of chocolate.

Congrats on the Somerset Studio publication. It is a great magazine.
