Hello, today I am here to share with you, a winter LO I did, using the Beautiful “I Wish” Collection…

The Maja Design used:

Other elements used: Dusty Attic Chipboard: Doily #5, Snowflakes, Pine Sprigs, mini chicken wire, Old Wooden Fence….49 and Market: Rustic Bloom Poinsettia Canvas, Rustic Blooms Burlap & Canvas, Rustic Blooms Canvas and Burlap small, Burlap Trim…..Prima: snowflake texture, glass glitter pearl….Tim Holtz clear crackle, icicles, corrugated paper & prills mini pearls

Here are some close ups…….

I love working with  Maja Design Paper, it is the softest paper I have ever worked with, so it distresses beautifully. Being a paper layer, I find the Collections easy to work with, plus you can combine Collections, as they also blend beautifully…. This corner shows distressed, hand stitched, paper layers using corrugated paper in the layers…

I primed the TH icicle, old wooden fence & chicken wire with clear gesso, the rest of the chipboard was primed with white gesso. I then painted all the chipboard,& the TH icicle, except for the chicken wire with clear crackle paint. Once the crackle dried I painted the white pieces with LuminArt-Heavenly White H20, & for the brown I used Shimmerz -Chocolate & Diamonds…

I applied Prima Snowflake Texture & sprinkled on Prima glass glitter pearl, on to the wet texture paste, on to the flowers & some of the chipboard pieces…

I also glued on some Prills on to the snow flakes & snow texture.

Glued some glass glitter into the chicken wire..

For the clusters I used 49 and Market Rustic Blooms, & Dusty Attic Chipboard (Snow Flakes & Pine Sprigs)…

Here are a few more close ups…

Thank you so much for taking the time to look…..Rachelle
