Oh Brother........

June is here and so is the latest challenge at Unstampabelles...........


#69: To the men in our lives..... 
TWIST add an animal (or bird)

I made a card this time:


I purchased a new die called Puzzle by Paper Roses and die cut an image that came as a freebie with a magazine to make a jigsaw from it - I deliberately removed one piece an replaced it out of the hole to emphasis the jigsaw......


I had it all planned out but as you know, what is in my head does not always look the same when completed. This is the second image and the first one is on the bin - because I forgot to stick it to card first before die cutting it and got myself into all sorts of difficulties trying initially to correct the error. Note to self: think before doing!


The dies added are a collection of various ones I own by different die makers - if you really want to know who just email me.

You can enter all month and make a card, a tag, a scrap page, a gift.....whatever is suitable for the men in our lives. Don't forget to add an animal for the twist!


It is a cold day today but not overcast and it will be a cold night - we have entered winter with a flourish of snow earlier in the week but mostly clear, calm blue days and a bit of rain in the evenings.

There have been an abundance of stunning aurora photographs this week on FB and Instagram
Here is just one of them


Standing in awe as sheets and beams of light dance across the sky to the south of Hobart & Beyond's Mortimer Bay.
