Here they are:
I thought this would be an easy one. I made my 'sun' almost immediately, but then came to a grinding halt. It sat there for a few days tormenting me and several times I went to throw it in the bin, but didn't.
Finally, I knew what I was going to do.
The papers are from Crate Paper ~ Lemon Grass Collection and I used a bit of almost every sheet.
I made my sun by stamping some 'rays' onto heat resistant acetate and embossing them with Tim Holtz ~ Distress Powder in varying shades. I then machine stitched the acetate to a piece of cardstock and distressed the edges. The stamp that I used for my rays is from the Paperartsy ~ Squiggly Ink: Bricks & Mortar 3 collection.
The 'life isn't a straight line' sentiment is from the same collection.
Here is what I ended up with.
I made my rolling hills by tearing up strips of cardstock and inking and distressing the edges. I added a nice fat chunky strip of ribbon at the foot of the card.
The little buildings were made by stamping them out from Paperartsy ~ Squiggly Ink: Bricks and Mortar 3 collection several times onto different sheets of cardstock. I then embossed each one, mounted them on to chipboard and cut them out. I accented each house by adding layers from each of the different sheets of cardstock that I'd used.
Thank you for looking.
