I went to my new favourite size journal to make this(it's 8" x 8")
and added distress inks through a stencil then more distress inks randomly over the top. I then used the circle stencil and rubbed a baby wipe over it to remove some colour.
I use three different tree stamps to create the forest with a combination of different inks!
The Light behind the trees is so that I can join in with Valerie's theme of Light and Darkness at Art Journal Journey and the forest means I am can also join in with Moo Mania and More where the theme is Trees
Thanks for looking! Chris

This looks SO happy. I adore this. I also like the size of that journal but have never seen one that size here in the states. You did good.
Save those used baby wipes. They will come in handy as backgrounds one of these days, I'm sure.
Have a super weekend, too.
Thats really beautiful!
I love how the trees come out.
It's a fantastic background for the forest of lovely fir trees. The lighting effects look fantastic.

Oh, oh, oh - that is heavenly, Chris. Utterly uplifting. I adore your layered forest, and the colours of the whole page are stunning. Wonderful! So glad to hear you're feeling better for having some time at the craft table... I know exactly what you mean (I've been using Linda's FJ 12 Tags as a way to get back in the swing and after a slightly sticky start, I feel I know my way around the craft room again), and I certainly feel better for having seen this page today. A new favourite for me.
