Designer post- Christmas in July theme

Morning all,

Its a beautiful day here in South East Queensland.  After a chilly 7 degrees this morning the skies are blue and the sun is shinning with a light breeze not like yesterday when it was freezing and blowing a gale.

The theme for the Designer Team this month is "Christmas in July" thought i really should be doing a layout, but time got away from me, as my leg has been to swollen to sit for long periods.

We do hope  this has given you some inspiration to join us this month In the "ANYHING GOES CHALLENGE",

I decided i would use up a scrap piece of Christmas paper from last year so decided to do a one sheet Wonder set of cards. The paper was a little bit bigger than a 6" x 6" paper pad so doubled up on a few of the cuts so i would have no waste.

The page was 11.5 " long and 6" wide. I have also used the remaining Collectables and Sticker sheet from the collection. 

This selection took me around an hour to make including the cutting and embossing of each card.

A set of very quick and easy cards.

Inspirational Monday D.T POST

Morning all,

WOW, its Monday already, wet Saturday and a glorious Sunday with very mild conditions over the  weekend, decide to tidy and rehouse a few bits and pieces , i want to shift my Scan and Cut. From my table. Sill there thou.

Today's post, Do you have a container  of scenic photos you have taken whilst  on holiday and you scrapped what you want, but they too good to throw the rest away. Why not turn them into photo cards

This is what i have done with some old photos from the Pilbara region of Western Australia, when we lived there. I have also  used Paper Roses " Men on a fence " Dye some dye cut kangaroo and wooden Flourish Kangaroo from  Kaisercraft "Open Road" collection.

Cleaning up today found some more photos of sunsets and aftermath of a bush fire many years ago of my brother in law horse paddocks. i will do as well in the near future.

All cards are a base of 6"  x 4" top fold cards


Hope you like them and to share some of your creations
