Back in Business !!

What card maker could let World Card Making Day go by without making a card ?? (Especially when her DH is happily occupied watching "The Bathurst 1000" ! -a big car race on in Australia this weekend )
Well as I had finally got around to organising my craft stuff in our new house and as it is "birthday season" in my family at this time of year - I decided it was time to finally start again with this crazy obsessive hobby !... Despite feeling awfully "rusty".- I have made very few cards in the last 4 months since we officially heard about the big move north !!  I was inspired as usual by the latest FTL sketch from my fave "Clean and Simple Stamping" site (#211 ) and made 2 cards - one a  "girly" girl  card for my sis using the beautiful "Everyday Enchantment" DSP  and one for my brother using the cutest owl stamp.(Thanks Sue M!) This  card also uses the green blue and brown "extra" colour challenge that has also been set on the FTL challenge this week in honour of WCMD.. I like how they both use the same basic sketch but are very different from each other.
HaHa My DH just came looking for me to see what I was doing- he came in- saw the big mess I had made already in my formerly clean room - rolled his eyes and walked out again ! Lol! Yeah!  Life  back to normal!

You must have felt right at home with the hot dry weather yesterday! Glad you have settled in, and yes, the TV was on here all day yesterday too.
