It's now December. Time to wrap up making all those Christmas Cards and get them in the mail. I have already been receiving cards since the 3rd week of November!
The last challenge at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown is to pick a previous theme from 2019. I choose to redo the challenge from January 19th....
Have you ever gone out walking in the woods to get your tree or when it was kind of dark from a storm brewing or it is so quiet except the crunch of the snow beneath your feet? The snow is glistening from the bright moon. So quiet and peaceful.
I loved taking walks in the woods. I remember one time, I went out for a walk in the woods close to home and it was snowing. Not a sound anywhere. I spotted tracks from a rabbit and decided to follow them. I knew they were fresh tracks or they would have been buried. I happened to look up and directly in front of me...almost eye level....was the biggest beautiful white owl. Biggest I have ever seen! He was just staring at me not moving...so quiet. We just stared at each other. I think I ruined his lunch because he must have been following that same rabbit. I backed out slowly to go home to get my camera. Of course when I got back he was gone, but I will never forget that moment.
Yup....silence...walking in the woods. Nothing like it.
The memory inspired me to make my card for the Silent Night. Actually, I made not just one but 31 cards.
Thank you for stopping by. If you still need to get a few more cards done...go back to 52 Christmas Card Throwdown and see if you feel like doing a sketch, color, theme or technique challenge. The challenges are along the top of the page, so pick one and scroll down the list. I can't wait to see what you will share with us!
