The background is a panel from the OS Dartmoor 1973 one inch tourist map which bought in a charity shop for 50p. Yes, it was difficult to cut it because maps are so lovely but I already have a copy of this map so once the scissors were poised, all it took was a deep breath and a brave snip and I was away.
The globe was cut twice from blue and green textured card stock. I cut out the land masses and mounted them on the globe after distressing with antique linen and vintage photo inks. A little treasure gold is added to the globe and the sentiment stamped in the middle of the Atlantic ocean. Nice.
I may make some more of these, they are simple to do and I have loads more panels left from my 50p map purchase.
