Here are some of my samples that I made using Australian Animals Vol 1:
For this first card, I stamped the emu in black Archival ink onto a page from an old book. I just can't resist a punny sentiment,:
ps - that's not a real emu feather. The emu we have in our backyard got a bit testy when I tried to pluck one from his back so I had to improvise ;)
This second card uses the image of the frill-necked lizard:
The inside of the card reads "wishing you a day full of frills."
This last project is an altered frame - I gave it a whitewash and replaced the glass with some chicken wire and scrapbook paper. I then pegged my images to it:
I wanted to play around with the chalkboard technique that's so popular of late, and I thought these animals would look fabulous! The images have been stamped with white ink onto black cardstock. Some white ink was then smeared into the background, and I then added some detail with the Scratches Background stamp.
I might eventually add these prepared images to another project, but for now I'm enjoying them on the chicken wire frame. A bit of art for my heart :)
Thanks for stopping by today!
lol...I sure wouldn't take on an emu for a feather either! I love the chicken wire effect with the chalkboard technique...everything just looks so natural.

These are great! The faux chalkboard is a fantastic idea.
