Summer brings our area large numbers of tourists, some of whom have difficulty following 'closed' signs. Three helicopters to rescue and/or check people were safe to wait for local Police Rescue squad to walk into their location on closed hikes and then walk them out. Undoubtedly discussing why some areas are closed. In our case there are multiple landslides in the bush, affecting the hikers, canyoners, and 'photo opportunity' seekers for IG. Sorry for the rant, two years ago a father and son died in a landslide in the valley. </p><p> I am back again with my teammates at <a href="https://lilpatchofcraftyfriends.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Lil Patch of Crafty Friends</a>, this fortnight we are sponsored by Stream Side Studios who kindly allowed each of us to choose a digital set to work with I chose <a href="https://www.streamsidestudios.co/product-page/berry-sweet-mice" target="_blank">Berry Sweet Mice</a>. </p><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.streamsidestudios.co/digital-stamps" target="_blank">Stream Side Studios</a></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEj4RX-Pw-K21cNsHzEfHIXV0iMBH4nAKkIwYozd0v6KqO0c6d1HCqQenhI4l0uLh3n61zsGUd71l1yaTWZjIqZDxvixz8X1NNjKRvEd12puxjIjkhqwAf9ar-KB_c1puvZPs81LlWg7qEiYEv1IflrDpk8pZ2xvJatPGkznirLySBxCK-BkKThyXzrnrw_6" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="320" data-original-width="320" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEj4RX-Pw-K21cNsHzEfHIXV0iMBH4nAKkIwYozd0v6KqO0c6d1HCqQenhI4l0uLh3n61zsGUd71l1yaTWZjIqZDxvixz8X1NNjKRvEd12puxjIjkhqwAf9ar-KB_c1puvZPs81LlWg7qEiYEv1IflrDpk8pZ2xvJatPGkznirLySBxCK-BkKThyXzrnrw_6" width="240" /></a></div><p></p><p style="text-align: center;">Prize 3 Digital Sets up to $15</p><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Here is my card-</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGebgciNKL9xHIF3CamaYRkdSP46syMX1-LdHyMsGJi1vv3LD0BbAsdpyexlkmIQFHKGrboOoRFvYUbEdaM3aqIWLkqth7Ojz2UyVtUiFRDBB32jyAxltADTeUJiftAYrDdQT0zuTJnJejMEDHqA3EC4rECOPoAKdIvqVBXB0z8q6lDo8HPAL2PeWkornK/s546/LPoCF%20Jan%202024%20F.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="541" data-original-width="546" height="396" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGebgciNKL9xHIF3CamaYRkdSP46syMX1-LdHyMsGJi1vv3LD0BbAsdpyexlkmIQFHKGrboOoRFvYUbEdaM3aqIWLkqth7Ojz2UyVtUiFRDBB32jyAxltADTeUJiftAYrDdQT0zuTJnJejMEDHqA3EC4rECOPoAKdIvqVBXB0z8q6lDo8HPAL2PeWkornK/w400-h396/LPoCF%20Jan%202024%20F.png" width="400" /></a></div><p></p><div style="text-align: left;">What I used-<br />White cardstock <br /><a href="https://www.streamsidestudios.co/product-page/berry-sweet-mice" target="_blank">Stream Side Studio's set Berry Sweet Mice<br /></a>5x7" card blank (12.6x17.8cm)<br />Faber-Castell coloured pencils<br />Kaisercraft 'Party' paper<br />Clear embossing pen, inkpad and powder (sprinkles and flame are heat embossed)<br />Sentiment stamp from stash heat embossed in clear.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I would like to enter this card in-</div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://craftinghappinesschallenges.blogspot.com/2024/01/157-celebrations-of-any-kind.html" target="_blank"><strike>Crafting Happiness #157 Celebrations of any kind</strike></a> (Edit: I was too late)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://mmmchallengeblog.blogspot.com/2024/01/217-happy-birthday.html" target="_blank">Make My Monday #217 Happy Birthday</a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://polkadoodle.blogspot.com/2024/01/wk-2-card-making-paper-craft-challenge.html" target="_blank">Polkadoodles week 2 Anything goes</a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://seizethebirthday.blogspot.com/2024/01/seize-birthday-275-embossing-wet-or-dry.html" target="_blank">Seize the Birthday Embossing wet or dry</a> (sprinkles, flame and clear sentiment across middle of cake)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://craftycalendarchallenge.blogspot.com/2024/01/january-2024-challenge-crafty-calendar.html" target="_blank">Crafty Calendar Challenge January 'Anything goes'</a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Thank you for looking in...</div><div style="text-align: left;">Have a wonderful week....</div><div style="text-align: left;">Megan</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div>Megan Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08615888035652815111noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7039737450084335612.post-40362292224626104352023-12-27T16:14:00.002+11:002023-12-27T16:14:17.861+11:00Clingwrap Christmas Trees<p> Hello again,</p><p>I am joining in with the ladies at Group of Seven Cardmakers, this months challenge is Smooshing with Clingwrap. I have tried just about every type of paper or card I have, I discovered some photo paper pre cut 4x6" from my old printer ink box, which worked exceptionally well with this technique. I also waited for a cool change, being the middle of our Summer. I used Dylusions Spray inks in Funky Fuschia and Crushed Grape, adding a few sprays of plain water to the sheet of store brand cling wrap then smooshing it onto the photo paper, it took a couple of days to completely dry, that cool change lasted several days including one when we turned on the heater....</p><p>I have used this one 4x6" (10x15cm) photo paper to make two Christmas cards, Marianne Design Craftable tree dies, unknown star die cut from silver paper. MFT Sentiment in Tuxedo Black ink.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-H7JiwYhxj0crWkOi7jC0qk6GUJZV3pNB8JFQXS0Xs6C3qL9E0h-en-BZ8bTCz7saTWpydga8nuXl3jGk_vAzXdAWoXp294k3mep0HE4oXeZLEvybORLqKomZVEhd_zreKLXKaRWFHtS4sLCPCT9deth-yulsr3WETu4mvSQ8V5naoZl7W-5lsOmI2Te5/s688/Clingwraptrees.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="619" data-original-width="688" height="288" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-H7JiwYhxj0crWkOi7jC0qk6GUJZV3pNB8JFQXS0Xs6C3qL9E0h-en-BZ8bTCz7saTWpydga8nuXl3jGk_vAzXdAWoXp294k3mep0HE4oXeZLEvybORLqKomZVEhd_zreKLXKaRWFHtS4sLCPCT9deth-yulsr3WETu4mvSQ8V5naoZl7W-5lsOmI2Te5/s320/Clingwraptrees.png" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3ojJG3SRb4tDASJyywhu_l5paLc9OrfcoTohLvp06z_4SfbSj85z9d7134_0ERckKkW1n4LpaipWzUqROH5ugSUDxG8eC6WWlNY0S9U2QDEsKq5xYeojBqQ1P2Xqplbnrgv7BM8Nv3Zp7iSMxaMahsRjUPGYaO-WK4c-TBg2ldO_zf4W3WsXsn0Sgf7bw/s677/Clingwrappink.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="675" data-original-width="677" height="319" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3ojJG3SRb4tDASJyywhu_l5paLc9OrfcoTohLvp06z_4SfbSj85z9d7134_0ERckKkW1n4LpaipWzUqROH5ugSUDxG8eC6WWlNY0S9U2QDEsKq5xYeojBqQ1P2Xqplbnrgv7BM8Nv3Zp7iSMxaMahsRjUPGYaO-WK4c-TBg2ldO_zf4W3WsXsn0Sgf7bw/s320/Clingwrappink.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYRF_cZujTqYnRKiN8ccB9qRB5caSyspHjvlayU0focX4cUbnAvTJXJMhPesAnCLhqGsIQa4W0-7_hdP_-a7WImwd_JOYajG56pG3WbvQIpFjXLXcACp3Z07_wtoFl5Q1_VkTFwbU8vDpwpSU0tJSxe-QG7Y6VbAlBz_SrU8QLyjfmS7u9AAc9DJ5ZXDsc/s684/Clingwrappurple.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="684" data-original-width="673" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYRF_cZujTqYnRKiN8ccB9qRB5caSyspHjvlayU0focX4cUbnAvTJXJMhPesAnCLhqGsIQa4W0-7_hdP_-a7WImwd_JOYajG56pG3WbvQIpFjXLXcACp3Z07_wtoFl5Q1_VkTFwbU8vDpwpSU0tJSxe-QG7Y6VbAlBz_SrU8QLyjfmS7u9AAc9DJ5ZXDsc/s320/Clingwrappurple.png" width="315" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I am entering these cards in:-</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://groupofsevencardmakers.blogspot.com/2023/11/smooshing-with-cling-wrap.html" target="_blank">Group of Seven Cardmakers Gallery Smooshing with Clingwrap</a></div><a href="https://craftinghappinesschallenges.blogspot.com/2023/12/154-christmas-trees.html" target="_blank">Crafting Happiness 154 Christmas Trees</a><div><a href="https://abcchristmaschallenge.blogspot.com/2023/12/abc-christmas-challenge-y-z-are-for.html" target="_blank">ABC Christmas Challenge Y and Z Your Choice</a></div><div><a href="https://christmascardsallyearround.blogspot.com/2023/12/december-challenge-12-drummers-drumming.html" target="_blank">Christmas Crafts All Year long, Anything goes</a></div><div><a href="https://creativeinspirationchallenges.blogspot.com/2023/12/creative-inspiration-challenges-9.html" target="_blank">Creative Inspiration Challenge #9 Anything goes</a></div><div><a href="https://happylittlestampers.blogspot.com/2023/12/hls-december-watercolour-challenge.html" target="_blank">Happy Little Stampers Water Colour Challenge</a></div><div><a href="https://happylittlestampers.blogspot.com/2023/12/hls-december-christmas-challenge.html" target="_blank">Happy Little Stampers Christmas Challenge</a></div><div><br /></div><div>I hope you have all enjoyed a wonderful Christmas and are looking forward to the New Year starting with a bang. </div><div><br /></div><div>Thank you for looking in, </div><div>Have a wonderful week.</div><div>Megan</div><div><br /></div><div>p.s.
