One of my favourite artists is Robert Bateman. I particularly love his "Artic Wolf" and "Midnight Black Wolf". Not sure if you've seen the latter (it should come up if you Google it). It is a forest scene at night with a wolf image hidden in the center. Having this image in mind I wanted to try and create something similar with the woodland embossing folder. But alas no matter how hard I tried I could not make it work well with the only wolf stamp set I own, SU's- Wolf stamps. If I ever come across a more suited stamp I may just purchase it and give this idea another try, but for now I decided to use the same principal and make a winter scene.
The background was inked directly onto the embossing folder in Soft Sky. Then I added the deer in Chocolate Chip and embossed my white cardstock. The snow drift is a torn piece of white attached with foam tape. I inked the edges of the front panel in Chocolate chip before attaching my ribbon.
Supplies used:
Cardstock: Recollections white, strip of brown
Stamps: Warmth & Wonder - SU
Ink: Soft Sky, Chocolate Chip - SU
Markers: Cherry Cobbler, Mossy meadow, Basic Black - SU
Embossing Folder - Woodlands - SU
Misc.: 5/8" decorative ribbon (Dollarama), white sequins, foam mounting tape
Thanks for stopping by! Hope to see you again soon.
This is so pretty Alex, wolf or not, the deer work perfectly.
ReplyDeletevery cute.... I tried doing something similar using the penguins (Snow Place) peeking out from behind the trees but was unsuccessful... Thanks for sharing your creativity
