Baby It’s Cold Outside! Michelle McClung
|
 |
Some adults do enjoy playing in the snow, usually with skis or a snowboard attached to their feet. Not for the faint at heart, but it can be fun and great exercise. Photos of these activities can make wonderful, multiple-photo layouts while giving you a chance to show off your talent.
I personally enjoy the sights of winter especially after freshly fallen snow. Everything is so white and clean (for a while), the trees look beautiful with snow or icicles on them, and to me, this is the epitome of what winter is.
I have to end this cold, winter scrapping tutorial with the perfect finish - hot chocolate! Some may prefer soup or even a brandy to warm them up, but they all make a great ending to a cold day, and a good topic to scrap!

Journaling:
You waited patiently the
whole time we were in Canada for this day to
arrive....& when it did your excitement was
completely evident. You hit the training
slopes & took to it like a natural. ... like
you practiced everyday. No-one would have
guessed it was your very first time
SNOWBOARDING!

Layouts
for the guys are always so tricky. I hate the usual blue & brown vibe & didn't want to go the snowflake route, so tried something bright & funky!
My DH is a salty old surfer, so after landing on Canadian soil, the first
thing he said was, "where's the snowboarding". In borrowed gear, he hit the
slopes & fell in love; he was a complete natural.
I printed the photos to work in a series across the page then cut up the
patterned paper, allowing me to position the dots where ever I wanted. I
made the journal blocks from MM paper & cardstock, stitching around the
edges for interest. Lastly I used my white paint pen to add the doodle dots
to funk it up a bit.

notes:
I tried to layer on both
back and front of acrylic for a more
detailed look. Also I covered the snowflake
with glue, then paper, then Stickles for a
shimmery effect.

notes:
When winter is on its way
I like the smell of hot chocolate. So
delicious when it's homemade with fresh
cream on top. The recipe is just a nice
detail. The papers, patterns, and
embellishments lend to that nostalgic feel.
