Card Inspiration – Australian Welcome Card
This card was such a joy to make, and I couldn’t resist filling it with a few favourite Aussie faces.
There’s a kangaroo with joey, a koala with joey, a cheeky cockatoo, and a little platypus all gathered together to say a warm “G’day.” My favourite Australian critter is the platypus, and I’ve been lucky enough to see them in the wild, so of course I had to include one.

The soft gum leaves in the background helped bring everything together and gave the card an extra Aussie feel without stealing the spotlight from those sweet little critters.

Aussie Crafty Friends!
Are you in Australia? I’m putting together an Aussie Crafty Friends list so I can share Australia-only crafty updates, including destash Mystery Boxes, little giveaways, and maybe even future local crafty get-togethers.
I have some destash Mystery Boxes ready to go, so if you’re interested it would be best to join soon.
Please note: physical items can only be sent to an Australian postal address.
Hope you enjoyed today’s card,
Crafty hugs,

Special thanks to my crafty assistant, Chad (aka ChatGPT), for helping me stay on track with my Gemini brain, grammar, and spelling… well, all the things! 😄
