is about green and foliage.
For some years now, during the summer months, we are visited by Tawny Frogmouths, which spend a good part of their daylight hours sleeping. When they are awake through the day, they can be seen stretching and sometimes changing branches to get more comfortable. On wet days, they can be seen snuggling up to each other trying to keep warm. We have a Giant Strelitzia in the garden, and when it rains, the tawnies are usually under the shelter of its large leaves and fairly dry... very clever of them!
With this layout, I have used several green-toned papers, torn them. distressed the edges and inked. I've added hand-painted leaves (gessoed cardstock, sprayed, added acrylics and distress stains) and a chipboard tree. Hidden journalling has been held in place with a brad.
Thank you for visiting and for your encouraging comments.
Cheers, Di
