Internal Affairs

On UnstampaBelles, the February challenge is National Symbols. Homework is to incorporate an icon / a symbol from you country, as well your flag's colours into your piece. A redback spider on the seat of an outback toilet (also known as the thunderbox) is Aussie as. If you're not sure what a redback can do, look it up at your own peril.

This ATC is in response to what our Prime Minister, Tony Abbott is doing to us at the moment......   we're all stuffed in this scenario.

Quilling paper 3mm



Sooooooo good to be on leave from work and enjoy my 50th birthday! Birthdays should be celebrated for a whole year.

    How strange that over on "POSITIV>>-+->JOURNAL" the theme is "your totem animal" ! I have/had no clue what mine might be so I googled & took a test.....SPIDER! Something that totally creeps me out.....and now I find this quilled beauty albeit on the thunderbox door - amazing :-)

      Thank you so much sweet Shylaa! I know, she is very scary; I'm seriously scared of spiders. But she's definitely a citizen of Australia. I am having a blast and a half.
