LPoCF #246 All Dressed Up

 Hello again, 

We have been enjoying our summer weather, including some spectacular storms, again the local river system for Sydney's water supply was under flood watch, as the dam is sitting at 98% full, one decent downpour across the catchment and they open the flood gates. Some poor Sydneysiders have been without power for four days, ours was out for one day, while waiting on news from an ill family member from interstate, was not ideal, not even mobile reception was working.

Today brings us to another all new challenge with my team mates over at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends, this fortnight we are sponsored by All Dressed Up who kindly allowed two of the Design Team to choose an image to share, I have chosen Strawberry Patch, I printed the image twice and coloured both, I could not decide which one I liked better and have made two cards. I am sure that I had some paper with strawberries on it but when I went looking, I could not find the one I was thinking of.... so, either I have used it, or maybe imagined it... does that happen to anyone else????

Two beautiful cards Megan - love the fabulous change the different colours give.
sounds as though you have had some 'interesting' weather over there - we have finally got some 'summer' after a cool start, but now we are wet, but thankfully still warm.
Blessings
