Tilda with Kookaburra

Friday, November 09, 2012

Hello Hello! Some exciting news today...I have been asked to guest design over at Deep Ocean Challenge Blog! I love all of the dt there...not to mention the amazingly talented owner Franz :D Thanks so much for inviting me!!! The challenge this week is Around the World and I thought it would be good to do an Australian card to show where I am from! Here is Tilda with Kookaburra.

Isn't she so cute!! I love kookaburras...we get them on our clothesline :) I decided to make the card really earthy and outback looking with the colours too. I also Shimmer Misted some Make it Crafty chipboard leaves...don't they look pretty! :) Here are the copic colours that I used:

Skin: E000, E00, E21, E11, R11
Hair: Y21, YR23, E33, E35
Overalls: E40, E41, E43, E47
Green: G21, G28, G29

 
Thanks for stopping by and thanks for putting up with my rants about moving/the internet hehe. It should all be back to normal pretty much now! :) xx

  27. G'day Alyce,
    Hope you've been keeping well, despite no Internet access. Remember how I told you they messed up the installation when we moved...sorry you're having to go through the same. This is such a great colour combo, I should really use brown and green more often. Love your rough paper distressing!

    Hugz,
    Sandy
