Hello
Today is the start of a new challenge at the Path of Positivity.
Our challenge is always Anything Goes with an optional theme. We have decided that our overall theme for 2024 will be THE POWER OF WORDS.
November's option is to design a project that is inspired by quotes about
Family and Friends
***
Here is my project:
I have no words or sentiment as I wish to use this card as a Christmas card, but it has a small family of Lavinia hares. This quote by Gerald R. Ford fits my scene “The length of one's days matters less than the love of one's family and friends.”
I started by inking the sky, using a circle mask for the moon and a piece of torn paper for the horizon. More strips of paper were used to ink the snow mounds. I used Distress Oxide inks as I find them easier to blend.
Keeping the paper masks in place, I stamped some twiggy branches in black and did secondary stamping to for a bit of dimension. I added black ink at the base of the bushes and then heat embossed some branches in white to represent frost. The hares were stamped last of all and some shadows placed beneath them. Finally white paint splatters were applied and some Glamour Dust glitter.
