One Powerful Hour - Autumn


This theme gave me the opportunity to plug in my melting pot and heat up some beeswax....a material that I love to work with because of its lovely colour and wonderful odour. Beeswax just seems to suit the warmth and richness of the colours of Autumn. I've added a pressed fall leaf on this atc just for good measure. This is my entry for this week's One Powerful Hour challenge.

It is so lovely and soft looking, the beeswax is fabulous, I will always associate it with fall now and think of your lovely ATC.
