I'm in Canberra this weekend and woke up to the smell of smoke throughout the house, from bushfires about 70km away. Luckily the weather has cooled a little so hopefully this will allow the fire service to get the fires under control.
This week's Casology challenge has helped keep me cool in the roasting weather though:
Since I'm not at home I had VERY limited supplies to play with. In fact, I packed just the bare essentials; card, ink and a few scraps of patterned paper and blue bazzil. I've had that little Cuttlebug snowman die for years - he's pretty cute isn't he but I felt as though he needed a twine scarf to keep his neck warm. I inked some glossy card stock for a bit of a snowy night scene - I'd have liked to have added some snow with some gesso but I didn't grab any in my packing frenzy. A jaunty little hat would have gone well too...maybe next time!
Hope you're having a great weekend and thanks for stopping by,

Super cute snowman! I do like the offset layers - funky!
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine what it must be like to be so close to fires like that - keep safe.
This is fun - the offset layers and the bold colours give lots of movement and bounce! Thanks so much for playing along with CASology this week!
