LPoCF #148 Lemon Shortbread

 Hello again, 

Time for another Anything Goes challenge with my team mates over at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends, this fortnight we are sponsored by Lemon Shortbread

Lemon Shortbread

Prize 3 Images 

The Design Team were given two images to use and I have used Lemon Shortbread - Jazz Flapper Girl to create a page for a January Calendar, I don't think with Coronavirus there will be as much New Years crowds, in Sydney all areas are by invitation only, although people can have up to 50 people in their homes, so maybe there will be a lot of smaller parties. 

I have used an ancient DCWV All Dressed Up paper pad (11.5 x 16.5cm) which has areas already with glitter on the pages, I coloured then layered on some 'Tickled Pink' Stickles over the dress before fussy cutting her out and sticking down onto the prepared square. 

Here is my Calendar page:- 



What I used:-
Lemon Shortbread Jazz Flapper Girl
DCWV All Dressed Up Glittered paper stack
Magazine freebie paper, pink glittered cardstock
Calendar tab 'January'
Tickled Pink Stickles
Aqua Glitzee glitter glue
Diamond Glaze
Memory Box imagine die
Silver metal glasses embellishment
Faber-Castell and Derwent pencils
Sparkly flowers (mystery)
Clear self-adhesive strip of rhinestones
Deckled edge Twist Trimmer (We R Memory Keepers)
Adhesives:- Double sided tape, PVA glue, stick glue, Diamond Glaze, Double sided adhesive paper

I now have a second new budgie, after losing my little bird who had a stroke in April, the baby has been joined by another baby and I'm now trying to train two birds, the newest member has no name yet, while we get to know his personality.

LPoCF #146 Bugaboo Stamps

 Hello again, 

Today brings us to another Anything goes Challenge with my team mates at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends, this fortnight we are sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps who have kindly given us images to work with, I have used an older image called Bobble-headed Elf to make a Christmas card. I managed to make so many cards last year that I think I've only needed to make 20 all year to top my stash up. 

This week I started with a new physio, I read the Welcome email with a mild chuckle, at the first appointment they said they will devise a plan for how many appointments I will need. Physio is 8th in 7 years of ongoing treatment... he didn't offer any plans just yet other than 5 appointments in rapid sequence, this is to be weekly for the next 5 weeks, then see where things are. On a happier note  I've waited 6 months to get a new bird, a new baby budgie came home with us after my appointment, he is called Rolly, he is quite an acrobat and yes he likes rolling between his legs, he's also the first bird I've ever had that chooses to sleep on the floor under his seed container, I think he still wants to be in a nest like environment.... he kindly alerted me just after I'd settled down to go to sleep that the other budgie who has had a stroke had fallen off his perch by loudly screeching until he'd been put back on his perch....
