Outback Christmas

 Hello again,

We have had another wet week here in eastern Australia, the news said the rain band is 4000km long and hits all of the eastern states, the major dam that supplies Sydney with drinking water has hit 100% capacity and has opened the spillway, it was only in March that the area down stream was flooded in another release. 

Here is one more Christmas card:-

Our Christmas cards for overseas had to be posted last week for guaranteed delivery and due to postage delays and only alternate day delivery the Aussie cards will be sent this week, all written and ready to go! 

What I used:-
White 5x7" card blank
Kaisercraft 'mud' scrapbook page
Beccy's Place sentiment stamp 'Aussie Christmas'
White embossing powder
Clear embossing ink
Hand star punch
Distress oxide inks
Crafts 4 U Aussie Camper
Scrap Dragon Australiana Santa Sleigh minus one kangaroo

 Hello again, 

Well on the local weather front we have had another drenching and gone from warm spring weather back to freezing cold winter weather, current outside temperature is 6.6C but with wind chill included feels like -2.6C. We are seeing less cases of the virus, although follow up appointments for Mum after her stroke have been swapped from in person to over the phone due to local cases within the hospital.

Today brings us to another all new Anything Goes Challenge with my team mates at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends, this fortnight we are sponsored by All Dressed Up who kindly gave the design team two images to work with. I have used Oriental Girl and created a fancy card which will go to a family friend as a birthday card.

 Hello again,

Well I have been busy making some more Christmas cards ready to send in a few weeks time. I have been determined to rid myself of several paper pads of which there is only scraps left. I'm making smaller cards this year as my usual 5x7" card blanks have not been available where I usually purchase.

Three designs using scraps and basic supplies only.

Christmas Tree design- White cardstock, Paper Rose Nesting rectangle dies, Christmas tree die, My Minds Eye Paper pad Mistletoe Magic scraps, MFT sentiment stamps, black ink, card blanks 10.6x14.9cm

                               

Christmas Bauble design 1- White cardstock, Paper Rose nesting rectangle dies, My Minds Eye Paper Pad Mistletoe Magic, Sentiment stamp, red ink pad, MFT Bauble dies, ribbon bows

      

Christmas Bauble design 2- White cardstock, Paper Rose nesting rectangle dies, Kraft patterned paper, scraps of red cardstock, ribbon scraps from gifts, MFT Hand-lettered Christmas sentiment stamp, clear embossing ink, Detail Gold embossing powder, paper scraps from Carta bella Christmas Time and Kaisercraft Peppermint wishes paper pads, Kaisercraft Holly stamp, circle die, pinking shear circle die
