"We do not see nature with our eyes, but with our understandings and our hearts." ~ William Hazlett
Most people focus on the beauty of nature. However, Mother Nature touches us much more deeply. Nature isn’t about how it looks. Instead, nature is about how it makes us feel and how it touches us deep in our hearts. .

Winter will be our inspiration! Since winter has shorter days, use pictures that are shorter than the standard 4x6. In addition use some white designs such as stars or dots to represent snow. The designs could be on the paper or in the form of embellishments.

For my example I’m working on a double page layout which I did not finish on time, so I will upload it as soon as I finish it. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Edited to add my example. I loved the sketch because it has plenty picture opportunities. All of my pictures are shorter than 6x4, and I even added several 2x 2.25. In addition there's white polkadots and stars on the designer papers.
