Frosty Seedlings Collage

 I surprised myself by finishing the page I started last week in my sketchbook.  Still working on the winter garden theme and loving it!



    Some detailed shots... 


   ... the photo on the left shows 'Frosted Crystal' Distress embossing powder - I just love it's matte texture - so frosty!

I've also done some little ink doodles with a view to using them in collages.   These are currently on my desk, along with stencil brushes to be put away and the sketch book that should be back on it's shelf!


Some photo collages with the doodles for my velvet moth photography blog - the MakroTex challenge theme this week is 'collage'.   



I'm joining in with Julia over at WOYWW this week, a great place for seeing what other people have on their desks at the moment.

    I love your winter theme, I can almost feel the cold air as I look at the work. Very atmospheric and so beautifully executed.

  13. Well Diana, if my doodles were that successful, I’d be launching my own greeting cards range! I’ve never seen that textured embossing powder ‘out of its pot’ and in your hans it rally is frosty, how lovely. I have a winter garden that I can lift my head to gaze on right now…it’s not quite so beautiful!!
