Still can hear my mom’s voice saying, “Why do you want to live so far out of town?” They lived within 10 minutes of downtown Anchorage and my moving South of town meant it would take me 20 minutes. My answer was something like, that’s where I like it. Little did she know that years after she passed away I would move 2 miles further south and more in the woods. In fact we left part of our property in woods and have “green space” on the other side. When I first saw “Woodsy Lady,” I had to have her!
The antlers in the back was perfect for her backdrop as many an Alaskan wife has either embraced them or made sure they were kept in the garage, given away or hung out of sight. I made sure ours disappeared. Thinking they are the perfect accessory for a cabin in the woods or as an accent for this card, however!
And, because I’m a fan of a lot of white space on a card and SMORES, I had to make this one. Using the tiny acorn from the Woodsy Lady I created a light random background with HERO ARTS Soft Sand Shadow ink and by masking off a large margin around the middle. Then used Scrapbook Adhesive foam squares to pop up my squirrel who has toasted his marshmallows.
Brandi Kincaid always comes up with such cute little images and sentiments to match her Leading Ladies. I have several of the other “Ladies” on my wish list!
