Monthly Makers Saga

It’s the 20th, and it’s time for me to share with you my creation for this months Monthly Makers theme! The theme is – as you probably know by now – Saga, and to participate you just comment with a link to your creation on this post! 

Oh how I’ve loved this theme. It’s SO perfect for me, almost too perfect, because as I started thinking about different ideas, I also started getting stressed out about the fact that what I actually created had to be spectacular. As a host, and with a theme that fit me like a glove, I felt the pressure. But then I thought about it for a while, felt stressed out for a while and then I was just like “hell no!” and I started just playing around with pictures. And it worked!

Here’s what I created:

They’re these fairytale images of woods, and I’ve created them in a new way to me. I’ve used brushes and hue/saturation and stuff and none of that double exposure stuff that I usually do. But I’m happy with them! They’re kinda crazy and I like it!   The first one is my favourite by far, and I especially like this part.

Anyway, now to your part.
