By now you are probably aware that Bleubeard and I are hosting Art Journal Journey this month. Our themes are My Favorite Season or 'Tis the Season. I created this page specifically so I could also enter it in Try it on Tuesday's theme, which is Winter Wonderland. Because this spread includes trees, Bleubeard and I are also joining Moo-Mania and More with their Trees theme.
I call this one Walking in a Winter Wonderland,
so that means today my heartfelt
favorite season is winter.
I wrote the sentiment
using a white gel pen.
Trees decked out in white snow
line the background.
For this entry, I began by running a brush filled with water around an area on the calendar page. The image was in the shape of a heart. Once sufficiently wet, I tore the heart shape from its original place on the page. I then backed it with a piece of heavy card stock, also in the shape of a heart that I cut freehand. I used the remaining piece to write the words using a white gel pen. For stability, I then backed the assembly with 8.5 X 10 inch (21,59 X 25,4 centimeter) 110 lb card stock. Bleubeard and I are so happy you chose to join us today and hope to also see you at Art Journal Journey where our themes are Favorite Season or 'Tis the Season, at Try it on Tuesday with their Winter Wonderland theme, and at Moo-Mania and More with their Trees theme.

I can hear the sound of crushed snow underfoot as I imagine walking through that untouched snowfall Elizabeth. Wonderful display of a favoured season.

You used a lovely image, and it looks cold! Autumn is always my fave season, but never winter! Have a lovely day, Valerie
Just so BEAUTIFUL, Love your post your photos and your work.xx
This picture defines exactly what I call "winter wonderland" - it's beautiful! Your addition of the heart and the words handwritten with a white gel pen give a personal touch to it!
Wish you a happy weekend! Rike xx

It may well look glorious, Elisabeth, but it looks rather treacherous by the water... lol. It's a beautiful photo, so very pretty. Snow always brings calm and the heart depicts that peaceful stillness we always get after and during snowfall. A lovely scene.
Thank you for sharing your art with us at TIOT.

What a magical landscape... it makes me want to walk across that bridge, feet crunching in the snow. Sadly, it's just grey and grim here - very dull! Lovely winter wonderland.

I love your winter wonderland. That lovely, peaceful snow scene is something we rarely get here, so I'm enjoying Winter Snow virtually :) Thanks!

That’s a very clever way to get that heart in there! I love this page Elizabeth. Sorry I have been MIA this week. I have been really busy with work even in the evenings and haven’t had much time to spare. I also enjoyed seeing your lovely tip-ins and your other seasonal pages. Your autumn trees are delightful, as are your little trick or treaters. I also admired your Pearl Harbour page. You’ve had a busy week too and I hope you’re enjoying the weekend!
What a nice post.
I love your winter wonderland.
All the best Jan
As you know, Winter is not my favorite season, but I will grinchingly admit your Winter scene is very pretty. I like the blues and the trees reflected in the water. I like your hand-lettering, too.
Very pretty! :)
That sure is a winter wonderland. Very pretty. I would like to look at it but stay inside and enjoy the coziness of home. Smile. Hope it was a good weekend. Hugs-Erika
A wonderful Winter scene
