INTO THE WOODS - BERRY71BLEU

Happy Hello Artsy Friends!

Today I'm sharing my take on this month's fun filled "FOREST" challenge hosted by

Tusia Lech over at Berry71Bleu....

I used the dark paper from 7 Dots Studio - Nature Walk - Perfect for this month's challenge!

The photo was recently taken by me at the local state park and you can see the sun peeking through the trees.....I added the sticker from 7 Dots Studio "Sunny Skies" among the various embellies!

I wanted to use dark background paper to add depth behind the photo - (as if walking deep into the woods) - I then wanted to add accents of the colors in the photo - (blues/greens) - I used a variety of brands of mists, paints and inks to this mixed media layout....I was grabbing "similar" colors as in the photo.

Below is the beautiful "Forest" themed mood board:

About Me:

Hi Scrappers!

My name is Mandy and my blogs name is Kasha Gray's - Life's Treasures. I use the name Kasha Gray because when my son was 5 years old he had a make believe friend named Kasha. I asked how old Kasha was and he said, "5". He told me Kasha had gray hair. That's how Kasha Gray came about. I have been fortunate to be able to design for some awesome teams: "Shawn Davis Designs", "Flying Unicorn", "If the Shoe Fits"....Scrap It" and......"Scrap Yourself". I plan to keep creating, inspiring and being inspired as long as possible. I have a love for design, painting, jewelry making, landscaping, and of course scrapping and much, much more. I have met many genuine friends in the scrap world. Thank you for stopping by my blog and I really hope I was able to inspire you!

Hugs,
Mandy
