Winter Happenings | LET'S MAKE A COLLAGE: ROUND #109

Hello everyone. Welcome back to this week's participation in Let's Make a Collage ("LMAC"). I had a busy week with several offline projects. I love the winter theme, so today, I created two themes for this week's entries.

To create the setting, I started with the photograph provided by Hive account@shaka in his contest post: Let's Make a Collage - A Contest for All Creatives on Hive - Round 109 - ✨220 HIVE in the Prize Pool!✨

COLLAGE #1: Polar Express Is Coming

Since the season is still winter, for my first collage, I wanted to create a winter holiday scene. I drew inspiration from the movie "Polar Express". In my them, a little girl was determined to wait for the train. Her parents advised her to wait inside the house. Anxious, she wanted to be there to greet the train an all the passengers who'd accompany her on their holiday trip. She even brought gifts for everyone and expects a memorable ride.

I uploaded both contest photo and all other images I located to assist in creating this theme into Canva to take advantage of my Annual Pro Membership Subscription.

COLLAGE #2: THE ICE CARVINGS

In my second collage theme, I found a beautiful ice sculpture. I decided to create an ice sculpture scene, so I searched for several more to add to the scene. I think the result looks lovely. An angel overlooks the sculptures from above to ensure they're not damaged. However, she soon tires and takes a nap. While she's asleep, the sun watches over her and the sculptures.

Below are the images I uploaded into Canva to complete this theme:
