Hi there everyone, yippee, another Wednesday!
So more sharing time... okay desk isn’t very riveting? Ideas abound on a desk that looks remarkably like last weeks! Before I rattle on anymore for those not in the know.. desks are important, because it’s WOYWW (What is On Your Workdesk Wednesday). So pop over to Julia’s desk HERE to join in with much more interesting folk than here!
The observant among you will recognise that birthday card! It is the negative coloured piece left over from my card last week and so yes another card is made with left over bits... don’t you love that?
I’ve also yet to stamp some spares of that Silhouette stamp by Woodware, as I’ve used both that I’d done! Also I saw a great technique on colouring silhouettes that I’m going to try with that stamp so watch this space, probably on water colour paper? Time is issue too many things on the go... namely doing overseas mail for Christmas.
If you haven’t - please also join in my 10th Blogaversary candy over HERE!
Completed cards - this birthday die is by Scrapdragon an Aussie company and is the main part of the one of the two Candy prizes on offer. Magnificent die ...to see how made it, shown as below on last weeks post.
It was distress oxides spritzed with glimmer mist. The rectangle dies are also by Scrapdragon.
Second card is a Christmas card made with a Beccy’s place beautiful image.
Another wreath, with digital “the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the World.” I’ve dry embossed a single layer 5 x 7 card front, added some ribbon and use SB Magnificent Circles around the wreath. Linking with Becky' s amazing Christmas challenge HERE!
Now to Aussie photos! yesterday on my walk... would you like a picnic under this tree with me? We've had amazing spring weather, rain amd sunshine in right amounts.
I had my eyes tested on Mon and always walk off drops... this was the mangroves in creek and a new to me grass tree.. beautiful flower!
May the Lord bless and keep you all well and safe.
Twofold Thought for The Day:
Armistice Day here in Aust.
"In the morning and at the going down of the sun, we will remember them.. "
Thank you Lord God for all their sacrifices. We are truly blessed.

Congratulations on your 10th Blogaversary Shaz! What a milestone!! Thank you for sharing the beautiful photos from your walk, I have both those plants in my garden and they are also flowering at the moment.
Your cards are beautiful, I love that you've embossed the background of both. I also like the metallic card stock you've used... very festive!
Cheers,
Beccy
Lovely cards Shaz. I like the embossing and the gold in the Christmas card. Looks like some lovely plants on your walk. Sounds like you are having a better spring than we are - when it isn't raining, it is overcast.
Congrats again on reaching your 10th blogiversary Shaz. What a lovely way to go for a walk! Great cards too! Stay safe and happy WOYWW. Sarah #?
Fabulous cards Shaz. a lovely way to walk off drops . Happy WOYWW Helen #4
Beautiful work on the cards as always Shaz. I'm glad you walk off the drops and don't get into a car and drive. You found some beautiful things while you were walking.
Wishing you a happy day my friend.
Blessings,
Betsy
Lovely cards Shaz. Beautiful photos of Oz.
Thanks for visit last week. Sorry I didn't make it back to you. I managed to get onto Julia's blog again this week after about 6 attempts. It is so frustrating. It is the only blog I get a, warning about its not safe or whatever, yet I know it is!
Happy Blogoversary. Take care Anne x 12
Your cards are beautiful, as always. I love seeing the flowers you share...so different to what we have over here.
Stay safe and well my friend.
Hugs,

Great use of the leftover, Shaz!! Beautiful cards!! Using leftovers is my favourite inspiration :D
Lovely photos of your zone,too!
Hugs and blessings
I like the font of that script die very much and how fab that you were able to use the positive and negative to such great effect!! The turquoise colour in particular is really lovely as were your photos of your walk, it’s always interesting to see the different animals and plants!

Love all your pictures so many plants I know I'll never see! and of course I love that you've used up your scraps, I try to save every little bit, its surprising what you can create! Stay Save. Happy WOYWW!? ((Lyn)) #20
Super cards! I really love that blended background and your crisp die-cuts and embossing! Interesting to see all those plants native to Australia. Have a lovely week, Shaz! zsuzsa #21
Beautiful Christmas card & photos. Bless you for the thoughts of the day. Take care with hugs from Sue #18 x
Hi Shaz, that is a fab die, and yes, love getting 2 for 1! Some beautiful scenery as always, and the flowers/foliage is a delight. Yes, we'd love to join you for a picnic there, so beautiful. Stay safe, have a lovely week, Hugs, Shaz #6 X
HI Shaz, yep that is always so nice when you get a two for one out of a design. :) Love the glimmers and the colors of the cards too. You always find the most interesting foliage to share. ~Stacy #30
There is just something elegant about gold on white embossing, so lovely!
Great pics from your walks, we are starting to turn cooler here as winter is getting ready to settle in, when we went out yesterday the leaves were just flying off the trees. Enjoy!
Great cards! And what amazing scenery!
Have a wonderful week!

What a beautifully elegant creation Share, the gold embossing gives such a luxurious feel. So nice to see you at We Love Chocolate Baroque again, thanks so much for your support.
And as always it's so nice to have a taste of your part of the World and image the sunshine.

Congratulations on reaching your 10th anniversary, what a beautiful walk, hope your eyes could take all the beauty in after drops! Lovely card. You are warming up while we are cooling down. Sending love God Bless and Happy WOYWW Angela #29
Hi Shaz, it's lovely joining you on your walk wish I could do it for real one day. It's been quite warm here today but I know it wont last much longer. I've been watching the Armistice Day Remembrance today on TV though they also had part of it at the weekend too. Take care and have a lovely creative woyww, Angela x15x
I really like the font of that birthday die. Your cards suitable for any gender and age, I do love this about a design.
Oh that really is a beautiful Christmas card Shaz, lovely verse and a beautiful wreath image. I would like to picnic with you please! as always, lovely Aussie picks..the flowers are really amazing. I’m not sorry you’re going out to have some seasonal fun, I’m sorry we won’t be able to see you on the zoom thingy. I have sketched up a plan to split the day into Three sessions so that we can meet across all the time zones. I’ll blog about it as soon as I’ve got my head around some of the technicals. Nevertheless, it doesn’t matter if you can’t join in, it’s a pleasure and honour to see you on a Wednesday, as you already know.
A really gorgeous wreath and love the gold embossing. Thank you for joining our 'Christmas' challenge at We love Chocolate Baroque.

Hi Shaz your use of those scrap inners makes for a very resourceful card, i'm all for using up every inch of our papers and scraps and two for one can not be bad. I'd love to have a picnic with you under the Tree, if only we were closer and given the OK of course. I've had issues with comments this past week, I hope mine stays right where it should be today.
Happy WoywW take care & best wishes Tracey #8 xx
Gorgeous cards Shaz. Love the Aussie photos..Loz
Lovely card Shaz. and Congratulations on your 10th anniversary, Love to have picnic under those tree's with the lovely View,
Take care and stay safe Lilian B #9
Another beautiful, and thoughtful post Shaz - love the cards you make, they are always beautiful, and the way you point folk to Jesus is always so encouraging
Stay safe
Blessings

Happy 10th Blogiversary Shaz! I love that die, I follow you on Instagram - does that count? Wonderful walk on a Spring day, I've never seen a flower like that grass tree in my life! Actually I've never seen any of those flowers before! We had Remembrance Day on Nov 11 in Canada. My Father-in-Law fought in the Korean War, and my Brother-in-Law was also in the Canadian Forces, and we are grateful for all who put their lives on the line for us. Thanks for your visit, stay safe! Lindart #31
I love how you've used both bits of the die, positive and negative. Very clever. Lovely flowers, too.
Happy WOYWW and God bless,
Shoshi x #23

Hi Shaz, a stunning walk around our bushland, love the wild grass tree, we have a few we can see from the road near us. We have had some poppies come up in our garden this year, not sure where they came from. Hope your eye test went well, have a wonderful week... Megan
I forgot to say many thanks for entering your lovely work at WE Love Chocolate Baroque Challenge!! Good luck in the draw!
Loving teh Aussie photos - I must post some from here in Victoria!
Sorry for such a late call...
