I was going to make a card for the Clean & Simple FTL114 layout tonight, but my daughter rang and asked us to have her three kids overnight tonight. So I've had a quick go - it's a great layout with lots of possibilities. I also thought butterflies or dragonflies could be fun. I'd like to make another card tomorrow if I get the chance.
Sentiment stamp: Stamp It Australlia
During the week I made a card for OSA layout challenge 93.
I took me ages to make. I had to do it in five minute grabs between other commitments. I kept changing my mind. My cards rarely end up the way I plan at the beginning. Often I start with one colour scheme and finish with a completely different one. In the process my desk becomes covered with piles of paper, stamps, ink pads, cuttlebug folders, spellbinder dies and various tools. In fact I'd better have a big cleanup now before the mob arrives!

FTL113
I had a go at Clean and Simple layout challenge 113. The card is white and doesn't show up well. Still haven't got organised to take a photo instead of scanning.

Had trouble with the OSA layout 92, so I rotated it and left out the greeting. I hope it's Oriental enough.

We're going on a camping trip to Myall Lakes NP on Thursday. Our kids and all five grandchildren will be joining us on Friday. I've been asked to provide all things sweet - desserts, afternoon tea, etc. so I'm off to do some baking.

This is my take on Clean & Simple challenge 112.
Flower stamp: magazine freebie
Sentiment: Papertrey inc
Cuttlebug folders
We had a visitor to our garden - an echidna.
He tried to hide under one of my flower pots.
Echidnas eat ants and termites and are unusual because they lay eggs. They're cute and intelligent and one of my favourite native animals.

My husband's computer crashed and he hadn't backed it up so we've been preoccupied getting another and setting it up. He knows even less than I do about these things, so I've had to do most of it. Cardmaking had to take a back seat. I've now managed to finish Clean & Simple layout challenge 111.
