Kaisercraft Breathe Card Set

Image
I purchased this card kit quite some time back from A Place to Create.  Black and white has always been a favourite combination of mine and I love the soft pinks that have been added into these cards. The papers used are Kaisercraft Breathe. I find the kits are a good way to get your mojo back after a crafting spell.    

Swagman

Image
Since I have moved into the village I have had lot so of requests for cards, some a little unusual, most of them a challenge but I think this was up there with one of the most unusual.  A man who lives here asked if I could reproduce this sketch into some form of art work .  His Grandfather had come to Australia many, many years ago and  lived the life of a swagman travelling Queensland looking for work. He had written a book of his travels and drawn this sketch and placed it in the  back of the book. I am no drawer or painter but I really wanted to do something for this man. I water coloured the background, then used various dies for the trees, house, windmill and wagon. The outhouse and lean to shed were cut freehand and the swagman is a printed image which I coloured. I added some flower soft  to the trees and the gardens . He was very happy with the finished product.

Today I am sharing the last of a few assorted birthday cards I have made for my stock over the last little while. Even after 6 months in my new home I still feel like I am in catch up mode. These are all made with Hearty Crafts  3D images , Sticker Store greetings and various background dies.
