Off to a Winter Wonderland...

...at Try It On Tuesday. We had a light frost yesterday but not much to see - wouldn't it be great to visit a Winter Wonderland, just for a short while?

Our new theme at Try It On Tuesday is Winter Wonderland - in any way you wish to interpret it.

The Design Team have been creating their own Wintery scenes and I do hope you can take a look! 

I made a journal page, mainly so that I could use the lovely Gecko Galz image.

I made a background with some Aall and Create Lotsadots stencils and some snowflake stencils using blues and greys. One of my favourite Christmas trees (by Tim Holtz) was also stamped in different shades! I added some Snow words randomly over the page.

I mounted the image onto some embossed paper and then added some punched snowflakes.

I hope this image makes you smile as much as it did when I first saw it. Where did that star appear from and will it make some magic?

I can just imagine walking on fresh snow in a quiet wood - well wrapped up of course!! 

The TIOT challenge runs for the next two weeks and I hope to see lots of snowy/frosty entries.

I'm also sharing this page at 

Art Journal Journey and Wendy's 'Birds' theme

and

Gecko Galz White Christmas challenge

Thanks for looking, Chris

How adorable, Chris. It's charming and magical indeed. I love the tree in the background and the snowflakes. It's definitely a beauty. Adding the bird to the mix made it perfect for Wendy's theme at Art Journal Journey, too.
