LPoCF All Dressed Up

Hello again,

Today brings us to another all new Anything Goes Challenge at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends, this fortnight we are being sponsored by All Dressed Up who kindly gave the team two images to work with, one being this cute image Koala Hugs, I have only ever seen one wild Koala, while on a holiday as a kid, we wondered why all these people were gathered around the base of a tree, one pale grey backside was all you could see many metres above the ground. 

Card making mojo is still missing and family history has been going great guns, I have been helping a friend start their tree and finding some interesting 'secrets' which have needed careful consideration of older generations...

Weather wise, a week of high winds peak gusts at 97km/h have seen branches in trees snap and then need cutting up for the green waste bin, grey wintry days with a few lovely sunny ones and if the wind is not blowing they are lovely and warm (well for here). 

Did you know that there are over 600 varieties of Eucalyptus trees and Koala's can only eat about 50 of them...

Love your koala card, Megan - and the patterned paper is perfect for it :)
I held a koala at a theme/nature reserve up near Townsville years ago - they are not as cuddly as they look!

Adorable image Megan and I absolutely love that DP. I bought a Jocelyn Proust paper pad on my trip to Australia last year and had forgotten all about it - thakns for the reminder! I'm so glad you could join us at 613 The Avenue Create!
Hugs, Kate (Cards a la Kate)!
