LPoCF #180 All Dressed Up Little Bookworm

 Hello again,

Autumn has well and truly arrived here in Australia, the trees are beautifully coloured and dropping all their leaves. I hope those of you who celebrate have a Wonderful and Happy Easter.

Today 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 All Dressed Up who are giving the winner 2 digi stamps of choice. All Dressed Up kindly gave us two images to use and I chose Little Bookworm I printed the image in two sizes and ended up colouring both and making two cards in two different sizes. 

All Dressed Up

Prize 2 Digital Stamps

The first card is a smaller card A6 (10.4x 14.8cm) size using the image and some paper snippets to add to the sides, I printed the sentiment from my pc onto the darker pink cardstock and die-cut with MFT fishtail flags set, finished off with a trio of hand punched flowers with tiny gems added, the ribbon and bow on the flower were paper pieced with snippets of patterned paper on both cards.



The second card is C7 size or (12.6x17.8cm) I added the large sentiment from Inkylicious (I won from Snippets Playground) using Versa color Cyan ink cube and some clear embossing powder and another striped snippet, finishing this one off with three pre-made flowers which have a green gem in the centre, one flower is also glittered.

White card for printing

P.S. Many thanks to all my blogging friends and visitors who stop by and leave me a comment, I truly appreciate them all! Apologies I've not been around much, my 12yo pc appears to be on the last legs, and has started randomly shutting down, usually when I'm in the middle of something. I changed the 'watch/button battery' inside the tower and all appears well at the minute.

LPoCF #178 All Dressed Up

 Hello again,

We are starting to dry out here, we have had over 2 feet of rainfall (in ten days) where I live and the yard and laundry flooded again, some silly people have crossed the local creek ahead of the rain storm and had to be rescued when surprise the creek became impassable and yes they stepped over the warning signs not to go into the bush due to the weather. Heading out to an appointment a group of people dressed only in their underwear were walking out of another part of the bush where local guides take people canyoning all of which remain closed after the extreme weather. We have had a small water-dragon move into our backyard, not sure how long it might stay as the pit drain has now only got mud left. The local train line has had two landslides and one sink hole, they are estimating a minimum two weeks until they can reopen the train line....
