Woodgrain Background

Photo Details

Poster: DiHere

I'd seen a tutorial to make a woodgrain background - as I recall, you lay down some blue ink, then score the card and go back over it with grey.

I die cut various trees from white card stock and arranged them on my hill. The sentiment is a little large by itself but the vellum stopped it disappearing into the background. I added some tiny bunnies to the foreground, the card felt a bit top heavy without them.

Lovely weathered look to your woodgrain background. The vellum under the sentiment is very effective.

Great job on the woodgrain - I've never mastered that technique but you've inspired me to try again. Love the white trees and bunnies.
