Peaceful Winter Scene


 Excuse the poor quality of my photo here, I just couldn't seem to get this one right. With all the chaos going on in our world today, I tried to create a peaceful scene as a distraction. I used a SSS wishing trees die, and some Lawn Fawn stitched hillside dies, along with some I.O deer dies and a MB sentiment die. The tiny stars on the treetops were done with a SSS star border and some red glitter paper. I used some narrow strips of gold glitter paper to decorate the largest tree, then covered it all with glossy accents and glitter. I added some sparkle with diamond stickles to the hillsides and on the ground where the deer are standing. I used a Copic marker to darken the antlers on the deer.

I'll share this with the following challenges:



optional - make a scene


(anything you might see walking in the woods - deer, trees)


Thanks so much for stopping by and do have yourself a fine Friday and a great weekend ahead too!

This is a peaceful scene and the deer are calming. A beautiful tree line and I like how you decorated one tree so it stands out.

I love deers, I'm lucky to live close to an area of outstanding beauty where you can get a glimpse of them amongst the dense forest. You card is peaceful and I love the line of trees with the one different standing out and catching my eye. You know me by now and it's true to say, I want that much snow for Christmas \o/

Lovely tradition card x

You've certainly achieved a peaceful scene here indeed my friend! Love the rolling hills with the deer and the row of trees make it feel festive too! Beautifully done and a great therapeutic escape! Crafty hugs

Brenda said...

Wow, wow, wow! This is a stunning card Carol! You certainly achieved a peaceful feel with this card. The trees are amazing, especially the one you have "decorated" for Christmas. I love those hills because of the different "wave" they have. I will have to check out those dies. Then there are the stag, love the one with the head down, so need to check them out too. What does I. O. stand for? Yes, this certainly has a peaceful feel. I hope you and hubby are having a little peace right now. Big hugs, Brenda
