A Koalaty Friend

For this week's challenge with my ladies, I asked them to make a card with a friendship theme and include the word 'friend' or 'friendship' on the front. I wasn't really sure what I wanted to do for my own sample, but as I was browsing through my stamps looking for something for another project, I came across this Clearly Besotted stamp set and an idea was born.

It's a very simple card but the beautiful Forever Greenery papers are scene stealers really, aren't they? Just stunning, and perfect for an Aussie card made by someone who lives in a World Heritage national park! 

Materials used:

• stamps - Plushies Down Under (Clearly Besotted)
• card - whisper white, pretty peacock, Forever Greenery DSP
• other - stitched rectangle die, Big Shot, craft foam, Copic markers, Sahara sand marker

Thanks for stopping by. Stay safe.

G'Day Mate - CAS on Friday Challenge #181

Welcome back to another CAS on Friday challenge.

This is challenge #181 and the theme is ANIMAL/S.

So many possibilities here but I couldn't resist these adorable native Australian animals for my card. I sponged some blue sky and red dirt and added a small Southern Cross constellation for fun. Aussie, Aussie, Aussie, Oi, Oi, Oi!

Materials used:

• stamps - Plushies Down Under (Clearly Besotted), Star of Light (SU)
• card - whisper white, terracotta tile
• SU inks - seaside spray, terracotta tile, cajun craze
• other - post it note, blending brushes, Copic Markers, Stampin' Blends, Dimensionals, craft foam

Do pop over to the CASOF blog to see more gorgeous animals from my fellow DT members and don't forget to leave us some comment love. If you feel like taking part in the challenge, we'd love to have you.

Thanks for stopping by. Stay safe.

Kia Ora and G'Day

Happy Waitangi Day to all fellow Kiwis out there! I hope you're enjoying your day off and hopefully a nice day at the beach or a BBQ with some mates.

My card today is a simple one but nonetheless incorporates four symbols of New Zealand - the long white cloud, silver fern, black background and, of course, a kiwi.

Materials used:

• stamps - Plushies Down Under (Clearly Besotted)
• card - whisper white, basic black, baked brown sugar, silver foil
• other - cloud dies, stitched rectangle die, tropical die, Big Shot, Dimensionals, Copic Markers, Stamparatus, craft foam

As my Aussie SIL put on a meal for me for Australia Day, I'm doing one for her for Waitangi Day - and you can bet there will be pavlova involved! And probably also some kiwifruit, lol.

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by.

Cheers
