I'm home now and have loved getting back to my scraproom. My first project is for More Than Words where the challenge this month is to be inspired by the word ORIGINS and to use YOUR COUNTRY COLOURS on your project. Wow - this is the sort of challenge I love to do! Your country colours can be anything you choose that somehow represents your country or area - it could be a national flower or a state flag or even an animal. I chose the red, white and blue of Australia's flag.
In Australia we have a chant that's used at international sporting events. It goes "Aussie, Aussie, Aussie, Oi, Oi, Oi!" I know it sounds crazy but it's a bit of fun. I used the three "Aussie" words to describe the three of us in a foreign country.
I added some stars to the project as there are stars on our flag and I even found an Australian flag in a newspaper ad to use. The background is made with Tinby Designs Colour Crush and the chippies are from The Dusty Attic.
I hope you can join us this month. There are so many awesome prizes to be won! You can find the challenge here.
Happy scrappin'!
