Well that's it from me today, I definitely need a rest! Have had a busy weekend, travelled down the coast on Friday evening and stayed with a friend, got up and went to a nearby charity auction. Then headed back home dropped off a few of the things we bought for our daughters and then came home and got ready to head out into the Adelaide Hills to attend our Sister-in-law's 50 birthday celebration. We got home about midnight. Then I was up early yesterday morning to travel out into the country to sing "Messiah" It was a full day with rehearsal first, a quick 3/4 hour break to eat lunch, change into our uniform and be backed lined up ready to go on stage. Didn't get home till about 7:30 p.m. and then went to bed!!!!  Another full day today with washing, catching up with the lady I am sharing a room with on our trip and then our very last day of rehearsals for the choir's trip to Japan, only a week to go before we fly. Now just have to pack, finish off making a few gifts and getting DT projects finished and posts scheduled. Will still have my Wednesday class to make cards for and then they are on their own for a few weeks.
Looking forward to the trip and also seeing some of the sights of Japan.
Hope to see you over at the challenge blog entering one of your creations.

Take care,

Isn't she sweet? Challenge #166 at 613 Avenue Create Challenge Blog

Well, it's been an odd day weather wise with a forecast of 37C and then thunderstorms and rain this afternoon and tonight. It is quiet at the moment and the rain has stopped so I felt that it was safe to come and write my post up without fear of getting zapped, lol. We have broadband now so will have to check out whether that is safer to use.
Well onto the new challenge starting today at 613 Avenue Create. Its an Anything Goes challenge as usual with an Optional Twist. The Twist this time is All That Glitters - use Silver, Gold, Aluminium Foil or Faux Metal (must be silver or gold)
Our sponsor is the creative Aurora Wings
Here is my creation.....

I chose to colour this cutie in all blue and I didn't have to do the Optional Twist this time so my card is just Anything Goes.

Recipe:
SU Hello Honey cardstock
SU Bashful Blue
DP was a postcard that I found on Pinterest
Image is from Aurora Wings - Lily of the Valley Sprite
Sentiment from Close to My Heart stamp set
Copic Markers
Lots of tiny gold bling on the flower centres
