The Snow Fell Softly

Posted on December 2, 2015 | 26 Comments

The snow fell softly, Covering the forest floor With an artist’s touch.

Paper collage created with my own Gelli-printed papers and purchased handmade papers and sheet music from a vintage songbook for children.

May you find beauty in the quiet moments today…

Happy Discovering! 😊

Very nice, Ms. Jill! Boy. Do you have a lot of skill sets in your wheelhouse or what? Great collage! I am not brave enough to do collage–way too unstructured for my safety boundaries! 🙂 I see holly boughs….must be getting close to Christmas time…. 🙂

Very beautiful – really love this one also, Jill. Woo! Nice balance of color and I love the red berries. This could totally be a Christmas card. Would be lovely, with a pretty verse inspired by that clip from the sheet music. ❤️
