Happy Birthday Giraffe

 Hello again,

We are expecting snow here this week, we don't often get snow but have had some the last two winters. It brings Sydneysiders out and about in hopes of seeing snow without the multiple days travel or flight to our snow fields in Alpine regions of New South Wales, Victoria or Australia Capital Territory... 

Today brings us to another all-new challenge at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends and this fortnight we are sponsored by Mirtillamente Digital Stamps I have used a digital stamp called Almost Cute Giraffe to make a birthday card. I have used an ancient sketch from somewhere, I am now having trouble finding it again

LPoCF #168 The Paper Shelter

 Hello again,

Things are starting to open up here in New South Wales with one big but, you must be double vaccinated. Lockdown continues for those of us who have not had access to the vaccine as much as the main city areas. School goes back this week and next first for Kindy, First and 12th grades, followed by the remaining grades. I will get to watch what happens over the next few weeks in terms of case numbers as the metropolitan area reopens. 

This week brings us to an all new Anything Goes Challenge with my team mates over at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends, our sponsor this fortnight is The Paper Shelter, who gave the Design Team one image to work with, Autumn Breeze, it comes with both a pre-coloured image and layout and a black and white image to colour yourself. I have coloured the black and white image in Autumnal colours.

Here is my card:-

What I used:-
The Paper Shelter 'Autumn Breeze'

White 14cm square card blank
Bo Bunny Very Vintage Double Dot Design Paper
