I created this layout to capture the feeling of wonder that being out in the woods always brings into my life.
I brought my camera for a walk with the dogs especially hoping to get a photo that I could use with these papers. I am so happy with the one I did get.
I have seen all the animals on the layout and more out in my woods. So I had to get them all on the page to commemorate each sighting.
I am so pleased with how it came out.
I have used Reneabouquets Lacy Moon chipboard. She is a the magic spirit watching over the wild life below her. I know it was her who helped me get just the right photo for this page. 🙂
I used some Ranger Opaque Crackle paste glass glitter on her. Some Reneabouquets Victorian snowflakes, I colored the centers with Distressed Marker -brushed corduroy.
Some pearl beads here and there in different sizes add some texture and shine. Tim Holtz greenery die cuts. Fussy cut trees and animals from the paper collection. I used texture paste, put it on on like snow.
I found some dried astilbe flower heads I picked from my garden, because they looked like miniature trees. I sprayed them with sealer and sprinkled them with green glass glitter. I also used some tree bark with lichens growing on it, I found out in the woods.
There is sisal and some dried moss on there too. I took the title from the name of the paper I used from the paper collection. It certainly gets "very cold" out in the woods.
I also splattered some gesso for more snowy texture.
I know I will treasure this piece ...It makes me happy to look at it.
Thank you so much for stopping by to share this lay out with me!!
