April Card of the Month

Hi Lovelies,

Although Easter is long gone now,

there's never a time when super cute baby animals are not appropriate.

Today I'm sharing with you these adorable cards designed by Linda for our April Card of the Month.

Using Blue Fern's 'Spring Parade', six beautifully intricate cards were made.

Each one of them overflowed with cuteness thanks to the bunnies, chicks and pastel flowers which decorated the pages.

As always, Linda brought the papers to life by fussy cutting the little animals and embellishing with punched butterflies, delicate crochet cotton, muslin and tiny bling.

The Ultimate Crafts Embossing Folder 'Antiquity' was used to add a

delicate texture to the background and tag on this precious card.

This card perfectly showcases how a bit of bling and

Glitzin Glamour can make any project stand out.

Here's a closer snapshot of the pretty little flowers sprinkled all over the card,

each with a tiny gold bling center.

Final wrap up of our NZ visit

We have had an amazing time visiting the South Island, and also a few days in the North at Wellington to mainly visit the WETA workshop. On Saturday the 29th Nov we flew up to Wellington for a few days to have a look about and visit the WETA workshop. Wellington did live up to its reputation of being windy. Its a nice city built around a harbor. Most things are easy walking distance from the city centre. We took a few walks along the harbor. Elizabeth wanted to try what they call white bait. It looks like worms with eyes. It was cooked with egg. Neither of us were a great fan of this. We took the cable car up the mountain to see the sights and buy more souvenirs :). Our main objective was to visit the WETA workshop who have lots of special effects and prosthetics used in films such as LOTR. The shop was amazing with lots of expensive models but also prints and other items at reasonable rates. We had orders from family for few things and we also purchased a couple...

Caves Beach

Hi all, another day of exploring this terrific area. We went to visit Caves Beach today and had to do so at low tide due to the caves accessibility being blocked at high tide. The beach itself was a long and flat where the tide moves up the beach some 15-20 m from low to high. The main claim to fame are the beach caves. The water has eroded a number of small and large caves that aren't deep but very interesting. Some have swallows living within them. You can make your way around the bay by going through the cave to the next area. 1 area we had to time it so as not to get too wet as the tide washed through. After exploring the caves we wandered back to do the walk on the cliff edge (not that close). It was great to get a good view of the area. We even spoke to some fisherman who were fishing from the cliff. (yes they caught a Kingfish that we saw). We then looked up the Petrified Forest near the entrance to the Lake Macquarie , S...
