Winter Wonderland

 Hi everyone. This Tuesday I am here to tell you that it is time for a new challenge at Try It On Tuesday.  Our newest challenge is

Winter Wonderland.

I made this double page journal spread in my winter journal. It began with the snowman (which I quite like) and part of his background on the right which came from an old journal page I really didn't like.  I cut the snowman and enough of the snowy base out so it would fit on my journal page. 

Then I went to my journal and used lots of green and a bit of blue spray ink. Once dry I used some white paint on the bottom left. I didn't mind that some of green bled through because I was making it into a forest, and unless the snow is deep, there is often some ground greenery poking through the snow. Once this dried I attached the snowman piece into my journal.

I die cut several of these trees using a TH die. I then layered them to create my forest. To tie the 2 sides together I added  bit of thinly torn Dina Wakely printed tissue paper and also added the plastic snowflake sequins. 

You also might notice I added a small stamped, fussy cut and colored cardinal onto the snowman's hat brim.  I am going to link up to Wendy's bird challenge at Art Journal Journey.

Be sure to visit all the design team blogs to get some nice inspiration. All art formats are accepted at Try It On Tuesday, and this challenge runs for a fortnight, and that is 2 weeks.

Lastly, I am linking up to day 24 of Leah's Art Everyday Month Challenge.

Thanks for visiting, and I look forward to seeing your Winter Wonderland art.
