IC158 Woodcarved Christmas
Added to Favorite
xxxx

Photo Details
Poster: cjbutler75

 My second week in a row entering the challenge! Woohoo! Maybe this will become a habit! This is one of my favorite card layouts, and one of my favorite sets. I got hooked on this set even before I became a demo (my upline demo'd this set and a layout similar to this one).

I used the weathered background, which looks like wood bark to me, and then the close to nature set. I always think close to nature looks like a print that was created by carving layer after layer out of wood and pressing the carving onto paper inbetween layers. (I think there is a name for the technique, just not sure what it is.) The block party press pieces look like the wood carving that creates the print to me.

I hope you like it!

Elegant and beautiful....you're right, for me it brings Audubon prints to mind! We used to go to Oakley House on a regular basis when I was a child, to see all of the nature prints and beautiful wildlife there.
