Got Hogs? A Different View - Neige

I don't have many shots of snow, and they become rarer every year. I came across this low-quality trail cam pic from Jan. 2020. We couldn't feed the deer without the hogs getting in on it.

Journaling: January 2020 After a decade or so of wild hog infestation, this was the last time we saw groups like this, and they seem to have just disappeared. We've seen only a couple of single hogs since. Maybe they got Covid? Anyway, glad they're gone. They were extremely destructive.

I started with Neige Solid Paper 2, I thought it looked like a snowy forrest. I placed Snowy FotoBlendz 3-1, rotated, at the bottom left, clipped my photo to the fotoblendz layer and turned off 2 of the snow layers. I added just the frames from Artsy Template MultiPack 2-1, deleting the masks and portions of the frames and shadows inside the frames. Placed Neige transfers, overlays and Artsy Transfer 4 (lace only, duplicated), elements, word art and ButtonThreadz 1-10, plus some layers of MultiMedia Magic Sprinklez 3-1, Crocheted Snow 2-3 and journaling.

Wow, this is cool! I know the wild hogs basically uproot everything, but what a sight! Now I'm wondering where they went, too. We had the same issue with evening grosbeaks...for several years we were on their migratory path and then...zero. But I'm guessing the hogs don't migrate like birds. Love this page, and you've made the best out of the photo. I like the big snowflakes and the sharp vertical accent of the branch and also your use of the buckle-that-I-love-but-can-never-make-work-on-my-designs.
 
Wow, this is so gorgeous! I like a bunch of things about your page, but I especially like how the frames accent your photo and disappear into the lace.
 
Love how those browns and oranges look against the white of the snow. Love the big snowflakes and the use of the seeds.
 
Good they're gone. We've been unable to buy our fave eggs because of avian flu, so maybe they have a swine flu. And I'm so not a fan of those javelinas in Arizona, but you got a good photo to remember them. And I like your framing and textures. :cool:
