Here is Monday's lesson, yet another Australian Native, the Bottlebrush.....a lot more involved than I remembered, so maybe we may not get it all done in one lesson, but I hope so, if not, we will finish the following week, plus make a smaller flower. All the shapes have to be folded, shaped and painted, and then assembled on to a "calyx" so it is very labour intensive. The better news is I am sooo much better this week, I have had a great week with my family, we have been and done so many things, one of them being Whale watching at Port Stephens, we were lucky to see a number of whales, but none of them did the breeching for us, but we saw quite a few Tails!!! Please excuse the quality of the picture, I am not having any luck lately with my camera.

Australia's Floral Emblem
I have been so very sick with a virus this week that it has been a struggle to make a card and that is why I am so late in posting. My family are on holiday from Japan at the moment, and I was just toooo ill to even go to the airport, they arrived Weds morning and I first saw them on Thursday night. I am feeling much better now tho and my DDIL helped me make the card for this week poor love had never held a tool or punched a flower in her life so did a great job, she has taken over the kitchen.....god love her!! Thanks Miki, you are a diamond!!
I had a new lady start the class last week and another new one joining this Monday so welcome to you both!! I hope you enjoy making all the beautiful flowers we make.

Full day workshop
I had to postpone my class yesterday as I was busy babysitting our eldest Granddaughter for the day, it's school holidays over here and so I am having both girls a few days of this week. Yesterday we went to Sydney for the day we had a great time visiting the aquarium, she was most impressed with the sharks!
Here are three cards I have prepared for a full day workshop I am holding on Friday, it is a mixed group of mothers with children of different ages, so I have tried to keep the flowers really easy for them to start with.
