a home amongst the gum trees

Give me a home among the gum trees

with lots of plum trees, a sheep or two, a kangaroo

a clothes line out the back, verandah out the front

and an old rocking chair

a great aussie song

one i thought i would try and imitate via stamping, punch art and collage.

this is a 3d version i thought i would have a try at.

i used the natural composition paper as the base then added leaves die cut from dsp

house is stamped using the hardwood stamp with a roof from the hexagon embossing folder

swing is a retired stamp set called summer afternoon and cat and dog are from cool kid set

not sure it works but it was fun to make!

for the song here is a recording for you to listen to

cheers ears

just for michelle

because she likes organic grace

here is another card i made using the elements from it this time i went for a collage effect using a technique called masking. I used the friendly words jumbo wheel with the organic grace set you can see on the photo where i have added those bright greeen sticky notes images to the card and then wheeled over the top of them. I also cut out the dragon flies, coloured them in with sparkley gel pens and made them 3d which makes the card a bit cooler lol. it is all stuck down onto kraft card with a bit of ribbon to match the colours of the dragon flies. want to try masking or make a card just like this? ask me about my classes for term 2 cheers ears
