LPoCF #186 The Paper Shelter

Hello all,

Well we have had over 20inches of rain in the last 13 days the greatest amount in one day was 8inches and the bulk fell over just five days, we are starting to dry out again, the people who live on the plains area around Sydney are cleaning up after their 4th flood in 2years, some only just having replaced all their plasterboard walls and timber floors.... the train line has been cut again by another landslide which they currently estimate taking minimum six weeks to repair, lets hope the high winds don't cause any more trouble with trees falling...

This week brings us to an all new Anything goes challenge with my team mates over at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends, this fortnight we are sponsored by The Paper Shelter who kindly gave the Design Team one image to work with we are using the super cute Ellie Digital Stamp

LPoCF #184 Fred She Said

Hello all,

I finally had to give in and get a new pc it works so much better than the 12yo one it has replaced but with new comes more issues, I have been blaming the old pc for shadows in the corner of my screen, turns out to be the screen with the problem although it will work for the time being, also my old printer is not compatible with the new pc, so new printer to come too.... it is also 12yo so really should be glad it has worked for so long, I will be plugging old pc in as needed to use printer until current inks run out so that I can continue my blog and design team commitments....

Today brings us to an all new Anything goes challenge with my team mates over at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends, apologies for the photo being dark, I can only think it is caused by the winter sun this week sees the Australian Winter Solstice. I have used two coloured images from our sponsor to make two male birthday cards, for a change I won't be madly making two cards for my Dad and Uncle who have birthdays the same week.

Hello again,

We are well into Autumn here in Australia, I love the leaves changing colours and creating a carpet of colour. This week brings us to a new Anything Goes challenge with my team mates over at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends, this fortnight we are sponsored by LeAnn's World 101 who kindly gave the design team two images to work with, I have used Taking Flight to make a card for my Mum for Mother's Day (last weekend).
