TFJ Inspiration Ave: Frozen Winter

Image
This week at TFJB Inspiration Ave we are creating to the theme of Frozen Winter. I recently finished watching “Game of Thrones” season 8 and was inspired by the cold north to create a white dire wolf. Most definitely a creature of the frozen winter.  For this project I will be creating a journal spread. Today’s tutorial is going to be broken into three parts. 1: Frozen Winter themed Ranger Tim Holtz mediums and journal elements  Click  here  for video. 2: Sizzix Abstract Elements: Building a Dire Wolf Click  here  for video. 3: The Frozen North Art Journal Spread Click  here  for video. Part 1: Frozen Winter themed Ranger Tim Holtz mediums and journal elements  Materials list below.                                           What is tutorial? I want to start with a quick swatch card using a variety of Ranger mediums that fit the theme of Frozen Winter. To begin I have spritzed a standard sized mixed media tag. For the base layer on this tag, I am using some distress spray stains Salvage
