I call Australia Home - couture creations

 Hi all,

How are you all today on the Couture Creations blog?

I wanted to create a layout to celebrate Australia and knew as soon as I saw these photos I have, that this was how I was going to do it..

Sweeping Plains 12 x 12 Collection Set - CO727966

I used assorted papers from the collection and distressed the edge with a pair of scissors then inked around it and finally sewed around it to give some interest to the page,  I then cut a circle as shown and sewed this on the paper at the same time. I then matted it on a piece of brown cardstock. 

I mattered my photos and placed a piece of ephemera to separate the two photos. 

I adhered pieces of the 

Sweeping Plains Diecut Ephemera Set - CO727980

and Sweeping Plains Diecut Sentiment Set - CO727981

to the page some using the Adhesive 3D Foam Tape - CO723899

I stamped some images on the paper and die cut the gorgeous leaves and Australia map 

(so happy to see Tasmania on it) ..

I added some die cut leaves under the photos after shaping them with my fingers. I love to use journalling on my pages and thought this a nice way to follow the circle..

Have to love the kookaburra sitting on the G'Day don't you from the  sweeping Plains Diecut Ephemera Set - CO727980

I placed Eucalyptus leaves from the Sweeping Plains Diecut Ephemera Set - CO727980 around the page using the foam tape. 

I hope I have inspired you
to create glorious things
Hugs
