Wild Turkeys

Saturday January 12, 2019 On the way to the Post Office early in the morning, I encountered a flock of wild turkeys marching out of someones yard and crossing Birch Street in a purposeful manner. It was as if they did this walk every morning at this time, with a particular destination in mind. Ive heard people say they are getting out of control and are pests, but I cant remember why.

Notes: Opening a new 12x12 file and with the Rectangle Shape Tool drew out a rectangle,duplicating 5 more times and spacing them out evenly. Clipping solid paper 5 to each rectangle and turning down the opacity gradually of each rectangle as I moved up the page.

After making the photo black and white, I moved it onto the page and using a reverse layer mask, brought back the turkeys with various Different Stroke brushes. I duplicated the photo and blended it to Light Color.

Under the photo, I placed the fotoblendz at the left edge of the top of the page and clipped solid paper 1 to it. I also added a transfer at the top of the page along with the paper texture brush. Over the photo are art stroke and splatter and wedged in there is a word art transfer.

Typing out the title at the top of the page and pasting in the journaling, I added the date and slipped the word label template underneath. Finally I added the mini dots and splatter running down the page.
Loving this! All those different papers make a really effective background. Those turkeys are definitely a sight!
 
Great catch on that turkey photo. The background looks great with the monochromatic color scheme.
 
LOL Wonder why. We have the Canada geese to patrol our street, and our neighbors complain but they don't come in our yard because we have so many junipers. That's a lot of turkeys! Possibly a lot of do on some lawns.
 
I like the combination of the stripes with the artsy transfers and brushes!
