This month at Berry71bleu we have a Winter Chill Mood Board Challenge! Here is a look a the beautiful moodboard that Mandy created for us:
This challenge is about celebrating the breathtaking array of fresh fallen show and ice that is abundant this time of year. Whether you are a snow bunny or prefer to sit inside by a fire, we want to see how you cope with the winter chill!
This month we were sponsored by GeckoGalz and I chose a beautiful vintage image from the Snow Babies Digital Collage page and some of their gorgeous Winter Wonderland digi papers! I distressed the edges of the vintage image and added some sewing in pink thread to accent the image. I took several of the digipapers and tore the edges and used them as a base layer to my photo.
I added lots of stamping, splashes, molding paste and masking and fun accents like microbeads and sequins to my page. I rarely use a white background, but thought it would be fitting to showcase the digi papers and reflect the winter chill!! I added some gorgeous flowers and some fun arrows to my design and finished off the layout with a bit more sewing around the edges. I hope you enjoy my layout and I thank you for stopping by to see it!
