{working at the} car wash yeah!

Happy sunny Sunday afternoon and all is well. I've managed to get some plants in the garden this arvo after spending the morning getting this LO finished for the LCOM blog hop...The photos are of my GD, Paige, then age approx 3.5, helping to wash her mum's new car and I wonder whether in fact it was the car or 'someone' getting the wash LOL. The title was inspired by the 1976 song "Car Wash" by Rose Royce. There are close-ups at the bottom of this post.
Both crackled flowers are inspired by the tutorial by Suzie at LCOM DT.  I think the pink crackle (mixing Gessso & Croco crackling colour together) turned out a whole lot better. The pps are a real mix too...Kaisercraft, FancyPants and Rusty Pickle. I've used my Cuttlebug for the pink cardstock. The alpha letters are Cosmo Cricket. The doily lace is from Scrapping Outback.  I've also entered this LO into the "White with a Twist" monthly challenge at SO. The colours this month are of course pink & brown :) Well that's it for another Sunday, I do hope you all have a lovely evening and a great start to the new week tomorrow xxx

Sketch # 8 - finished.

YAY!! I have finally finished sketch#8 at the LCOM Christmas card blog hop:) For this card I've used Kaszazz Merry Christmas pps from 2009, together with a Gadget Gear (made with a Tim Holtz Sizzix dye). The crackled gear is inspired by the tutorial by Suzie at LCOM DT.  BUT there's more ! oh, yes I've just found out there's one more challenge to complete - using the same tecnique, but on a LO...so hopefully I'll get that done by tomorrow as well.  I'm off to a fundraising dinner tonight in Beenleigh to raise funds for Destiny Rescue (Australia) - such a worthwhile cause - saving Children from sexual abuse, plus a bit of fun with the theme of 'Tradies' so Ian & I are going dressed up as coal-miners - hope to get a few pics to show too. hopin' you're all having a great weekend. {Hugs}
