Our Creative Corner - inspiration from another country

 Well I couldn't help myself today, Australia is my home, but I decided to post this card; even though I misread the challenge outline, for a number of reasons.
Firstly I discovered this die cut map of Australia just a few weeks ago while scrounging in a drawer - it's been there many years...then I didn't know what to do with it so decided to go with our flag colours and its design. Secondly, we live on one side (west) of this vast country and our dearly missed kids live way on the opposite side (east) - some 3000 kms. And the rest of our families are spread from the south, along the east coast and up to the very top - hence we don't see each other often. Hi family!!
Thirdly, today is the day my special friend Vikki and her family return from their wonderful 3 week holiday in Europe.   Have missed you Vikki and our Saturday Skyping sessions...enjoy your week off and hope to catch up next weekend.

Thanks for taking a peek....have a marvelous weekend :)
