Earth Day 2016 - There's no place like home

"Sooner or later, we will have to recognise that the Earth has rights, too, to live without pollution. What mankind must know is that human beings cannot live without Mother Earth, but the planet can live without humans." 
Evo Morales

Thank you for joining our first Gel Press Blog Hop!  We will have a challenge every month!  This gives you the opportunity to play along AND win a Gel Press for yourself!  This month you can win an 8" Round Gel Press Plate!!  

This is my project

Like Dorothy says..."There's no place like home and well, planet Earth IS our home. I know that for the most part we all try and do our best, we recycle, don't litter etc. but, try to add something new as often as you can...plant native plants to your area, take care of the honey bees, compost, recycle junk mail into new paper...there are so many things really if we just look for them!

You might notice that I used "Kansas City" as Dorothys' home although L. Frank Baum never specifically mentioned where Dorothy lived in Kansas. 

Artistic license  :)  ::jazz hands::

How many different Gel Plates have you ever used for one project? I managed to use 3 for mine! 

Now, I could do a step out but frankly that would be a whole bunch of pictures to show you so I made a short slideshow for you to enjoy!

Now an interesting bit of trivia ( at least it was for me )

Dorothy's last name is Gale....lol...gotta love the pun, I mean they couldn't name her tornado so Gale is definitely apropos!

Full Definition of gale. 1 a : a str

ong current of air: (1) : a wind from 32 to 63 miles 

per hour (about 51 to 102 kilometers per hour)
