Card Give Away Result

Hi   there blogging pals . Welcome to my room .
A weather relief today .Quite comfortable temperatures really .

I had a fun craft morning with a couple of friends and a fine lunch with them and Doug later.
The kits I made up earlier ...well like at about midnight the night before .
With the hot weather and gophering out with Doug , crafting in my room had been restricted last week .I had thought that I would have to give my girls a  free hand in my room to muck around with my stash , to collect their own card making choices . But that was not to be ...sorry girls maybe next time !
I did not think that I would have time tonight to post so I uploaded one of todays cards onto my Facebook page if you would like to view it there .
here now are the other two cards we made today .

 #1  Whisper White , SU .That blue deckled edged  frame for Kraftyhands image is actually Tempting Turquoise , SU, like the pearls . I embossed for 1st layer .Is this still a CAS card?

This second card uses an image from set 3 Wild Flowers Art Pad, Lili of the Valley.  Card base and  paper from my stash .Sentiment from MFS. SU oval Punch used .

Now , if you are still with  me . I have drawn the name from the comments for this give away card posted by me, on Wednesday 15th
http://shirley-anne-stampingforjoy.blogspot.com.au/2014/01/home-made-is-best.html


and it will be posted to ....Faith  .If you would email me Faith   at shirlb1@bigpond.com    . Thank you to those who visited and left a comment . There will be another give away soon .

             Catch you again soon , cheers for now , Shirley-Anne.

Home made is best .

Hello craft pals . Hope you and yours are well .

Welcome to my room .

It has been so hot here in Adelaide with more heat  to come .

Doug and I have only been out early in the mornings for a quick coffee and home again under fans and aircon. No gopher ride to parks for Twiggy's run . I have actually missed taking photos .

 

This one was taken a while ago now . The tree is in our neighbour's front yard  near  our gate way .

 

The female had just popped into the nest hole and it looks like he is checking her progress .you can just see her tail .

 

My card to share tonight ..

 

The image topper is from Kraftyhands  Mini CD , Fat Luigi's kitchen .
Whisper White and dark green card  , SU,  and sentiment , SU. Paper printed from  CD too .

 I have made this  as a kit for  craft with  my girls Sandy,  Fran and Jane .
