Winter is a hoot!

"A Winter Owl Too" provided by Squigglefly

The Color, Sights & Sounds of Winter!  That is the latest challenge at 613 Ave. C.  Winter Colors mean for me the bare browns, snow whites and the sky blues, the Sights bring to mind the wool scarves and hats and the bare branches of the trees, and finally the Sounds of the winter birds singing or hooting.  To represent those sounds, I embossed sheet music on 2 of the three layers using a Cuttlebug folder.

So, think about how you would interpret this theme - and go see what the 613 DT have done with it - HERE.
Definitely a fun challenge!

TECHNIQUE

[Note: specific information on supplies and sources 

will be found below under “Supplies”.]

The focal image has been printed twice, colored with Copics, fussy cut, sculpted and layered with foam tape to add height and dimension.  The top two panels were embossed and all the edges inked with Distress Inks - they were then mounted on foam tape for elevation.  Small brown buttons were the final embellishments.
