Winter Wonderland by Keren Tamir

Winter is my least favourite season but I
 did love scrapping about it.
 
"Snow Wonderful"
 

I used the Crazy Circles 12x12 sheet and I cut it in half. I used the opened circles as frames for these small wintery pictures. First I covered the chipboard in gesso and then I dabbed clear distress stickles and yellow stickles randomly on the circles.

I also used chipboard snowflakes which I also covered in Gesso and distress stickles.

Finally for the title I used the word Wonderful and called my layout 
Snow Wonderful !!

I used the Prima BAP sketch as an inspiration for this layout.

My second layout is titled:

"Peaceful"

I took this serene photo outside the woods near my house. 
Those are the same woods from my fall pictures a few months back.

I quite like how the woods came to life in this photo.



I used the Hariet's Border underneath he photo. 
I simply covered it in textured paste and then dabbed
 it with chalk ink.

I used Heidi's Vines again for this layout. Last month I used them for a fall layout and showed you a resist technique. This time I covered the vines in gesso and then painted them with Shimmerz Paint: blueberry cobbler. It came out very smooth so I dabbed some blue distress stickles randomly on the leaves.

To get the 3D effect, I printed 2 of the same photo and used one of them as a background. I used the other photo and cut some trees out of it. Then I raised them with pop dots for a 3D effect.


Finally I used the Fine Snowflakes and the peace word from the ATC Words 1 pack. I covered the snowflakes in gesso and clear distress stickles like above and I inked the Peace word in fluid chalk ink.



I used the December sketch from Paper Stories as an inspiration for this layout.

Finally here is a layout I created a few days ago. Its not a winter layout actually quite the opposite but I used the inside circles of the Crazy Circles 12x12 sheet. I painted them in Gesso and then using Crackle Paste, I masked them in smaller circles.
 Then using i dabbed it with pink chalk ink.



I also used the Life's Journey title and the Cherry blossom branch

I used the Prima PPP for December and a sketch from Keeping The Best. If you want to close-ups of this layout visit me here
