LPoCF #132 Bugaboo Stamps

Hello again,

Well my mojo is still missing, although our garden is looking decidedly tidier for our efforts, in a few weeks time the local council will be stopping by to chip some of  our piles of pruned branches, Winter is already on the way here, freezing mornings mostly followed by pleasant days, we even have a few confused jonquils out in the garden, a little early for spring.

This week brings us to an all new challenge with my team mates over at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends, this fortnight we are sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps and we were each able to select an image to work with, I have used Dottie Yoga to create a card, which will most likely end up with my physio as some of what she has me doing is modified yoga. The sentiment on the card is one from Paulette of Create with TLC she is very kind and offers many of her word art for free, she also sells some online at her store TLC Creates- Vintage. We love to see all kind of crafts so come along and share your makes with us at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends...

LPoCF #130 LeAnn's World 101

Hello again,

I think my crafting mojo has taken off (somewhere nice I hope), I was able to choose one of the images we are using on the Design Team over at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends from our lovely sponsor LeAnn's World 101 to work with, the variety of projects from my team mates is stunning. Don't forget we welcome any handmade craft, pop in and share with us what you have been making!

LeAnn's World

Prize 2 images

I have used LeAnn's World 101 image Bouquet to make a Mother's Day Card for my Mum, I have paper pieced the image using various scraps of papers, mostly they have spots on them. I have added White Opal Liquid Pearls to the centre of the Forget-Me-Nots, the pink daisies are raised up a little to add some dimension.

Has anyone else noticed that they seem to have way more neighbours walking the neighbourhood than usual? I don't think I've ever seen so many Mothers pushing strollers, kids on bikes, families walking their dogs in our street before. Were they really all going to local gym's before or is being stuck at home meaning they are exploring the local streets from boredom? I'm still not up to walking around on anything but perfectly flat even surfaces due to my injury, I have however progressed with exercises with the local physio (thankfully still available for appointments) every little step forward feels like a huge step of progress.

Thank you for looking in...

Have a wonderful week...

LPoCF #128 Fabrika Fantasy

Hello again,

This must be the first post I have written this year which doesn't need mention of recent extreme weather events, tidying the yard had been high on the agenda, clearing weeds, digging out the pit drains, cutting back more plants and we are in the midst of replacing the bathroom ceiling after the last bout of heavy rain, I am planning on attending my first specialist physio appointment in the city (despite Coronavirus spread), we have heard that in Aus the medical professionals say that May is the expected peak. The trains are back up and running after the large landslide a month ago, (we had expected it to take up to 3 months for the line to be repaired- electric trains still not getting through the bushfire affected area further west)

Today brings us to a new Anything goes challenge with my lovely team mates over at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends, this fortnight we are sponsored by Fabrika Fantasy who will be giving the lucky winner of the challenge 3 digi stamps as the prize.
