What have I been doing?

I suppose you have all been wondering what has become of me. Sorry if you are feeling neglected. I have been away on holidays with my husband and friends. We had planned a trip across the Simpson Desert but unfortunately we were involved in a head on collision. Yes, we are all ok!
Our car was not as lucky it was a write off and it has taken quite a while to get back from the Northern Territory and sort out insurance cover etc.

My classes for the Christmas in July, Stamp a stack will be done next month hopefully so if anyone is wanting to participate give me a buzz or email me.

Here are some shots we took during the first two weeks of our holiday. We have some awesome photos and lots of great memories and we will try to cross the desert another time.

Check back soon and I'll let you know when the classes will be.

A very busy month of June

As well as being busy with classes I have been busy planning our trip across the Simpson Desert and trying to fit in 21st birthdays and family birthdays. It has been such a busy month. We were invited to a 21st birthday party of a very special young man, so I had to make him an extra special card. He is a keen surfer so out came my brayer and I created him a special surfie card.

 

Also I was asked to create a 45th Wedding Anniversary card using one of my little ladies. She also wanted me to add a man into the design. That was a challenge as I am not very good at paper piecing men, BUT I love a challenge and this is what I came up with.

 

I brayerd the backdrop with sea salt and reinkers. The man is made up of 9 paper pieces and my little lady only 7 pieces.
