Carla's (Covington Crafter) great WTUI challenge is to "Hug an Australian!" as 4-26 is Hug an Australian Day. One of the options to celebrate this day is to use one of our Australian SCS artists' techniques. Instead of a technique, this card represents a style (for lack of a better word). Susie (susie australia) and her gorgeous house images came to my mind for the challenge. She knows that I love the whimsical houses she creates, therefore, I decided to try to create such a house. I could never create one as gorgeous as Susie's, but I tried!
Because Susie seems to love doodling, I used a tangle pattern on the treehouse's roof. It's difficult to see as I colored it with three different colors. I hope Susie likes the card.
Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment if you choose to do so. Comments are much appreciated.

Oh my goodness Bev, I am completely blown away by your lovely words and jaw dropping whimsical house!!! I am on my old so I could zoom and and see all the itty bitty details. Wow, wow wow!!! Your garden looks incredible, it reminds me of Cindy's beautiful dotty trees. You make my heart and face smile my friend.

Your whimsical house is wonderful and truly an homage to Susie's work which, as you said, is so distinctive here in the galleries. Love the little scene you created on this delightful card.

Magical scene, Bev. Amazing the details you created with the numerous stamps. The whimsical house with all it's colors, along with the grasses, flowers and trees makes for a delightful take on Susie's style. Love it. TFS

Your approach to Susie's style is amazing. I love your whimsical house with the doodled roof and I also love that it is sitting in the middle of a beautiful field of flowers. This is a Susie card, for sure. Love it, Bev.
