Come Play at a Cybercrop.......

If you get a chance to scrap this weekend, come drop by Home and Scrapped for a Cybercrop to get your creative juices flowing. Angie and I are running it this weeked and we have a couple of interesting challenges for you to play along with.

I've been continuing to make my Christmas cards and bought a kit the other week from Scrapbooks from the Heart in Canning Vale with some lovely Graphic 45 papers in it and some designs by a team member. I started with the cards from the kit and with the little bits left over made a couple of extras of my own. There was lots of fussy cutting to be done so was glad when I finally finished them. The end results are lovely though even if I do have to admit to it after all the cussing. The two cards at the bottom row of the first photo are my own design and the other 6 were the kit design.


Managed to get to the Craft shed last Saturday for a crop night and completed Josie's colour challenge from Home and Scrapped for August. She even gave us a sketch to play with too, so not much thinking on this one.
This one above is MWS 25-12 from the Scrappy sketches blog by Heather.
 This one was MWS 31-12.
 This one MWS 21-12.
 And this one MWS 26-12.
I even managed to get the Step-by-step completed on Friday night which was again designed by Heather. She is such a busy lady and I like to play with others designs from time to time, especially when you don't know how it is going to turn out.

Well, enough from me.... off to create some more and then turn in for an early night as the boys have their last footy game for the season tomorrow and as always it is the first match of the day so we are up at the crack of dawn.

Happy craftin' all and have a good weekend.

Gosh Christmas is creeping up fast

I'm not real good at this blogging stuff, am I? I have really neglected it lately. We spent a lovely ten days in Cairns in the beginning of November which I am sure you will see in the layouts that I will be creating over the coming months and indeed in the last couple of Cybercrops. We stayed at Holloways Beach which is approx 10kms north of Cairns city and the beach is not like our South Aussie beaches where we have the soft hard packed sand, it was grainy and moved a lot under foot. In Cairns itself you cannot swim at the beach as the city has a more swampy beachfront which is muddy and tacky with lots of crabs. At this time of the year also, the waters are full of stingers so it is dangerous to swim in the sea unless in an enclosed netted off area for protection. Holloways beach had a small area to do this and the boys liked it but the current was strong and wavy and no sooner would they stand up than wave would come and dump them under again. It became a little much for them a

My Christmas cards with North Pole papers.....

Image
Last Christmas season I bought the Kaisercraft North Pole 6.5" x 6.5" paper pad as I really loved the colours of the papers. Of course I really didn't get a chance to use them much  because I had already made my cards earlier in the year so have been putting them to use in recent weeks for my cards for this Christmas Season. Inspired by Pinterest above.    A sketch from Paper Wishes for World Card Making Day was used for above and below.  Above is another Paper Wishes sketch for World Card Making Day and below is OWH sketch #236. Another Pinterest inspired card using a lace stamp from Kaisercraft - Oh so lovely set.   More Christmas cards for my own use made with Kaisercraft North Pole papers. #wcmd2015 @sctmagazine - Challenge #3 sketch challenge Mojo Monday sketch #334 And last but not least another sketch that I can't find the details for. Thanks for dropping by again, Happy Craftin'...........

The last of the scraps.....

Image
The last of the glossy magazine scraps with toppers and extra bits. These went to Combat Cards SA just before the close off of Christmas cards.   Stamps are from a Clear Impressions set with Creative Stamping magazine. Die-cut is from Stampin' Up.     These are based on some sketches but it has been a while and I can't remember which ones they were so I  won't be able to share that this time around. Thanks for dropping by ......
