Around the World on Wednesday – Shaking things up!

Welcome to the Around the World on Wednesday Design Team’s August Blog Hop. My name is Cazz Boylan from sunny Queensland, Australia. Around the World on Wednesday has been created by my friend Angie McKenzie.  It is such a buzz to be hopping each month with these amazingly talented demonstrators from all around the world.

 This month’s theme is to create something that is new to me! Which was so much fun as there are so many techniques that I have been wanting to try! I chose to create a card with the Black Magic Technique!

Generally when you create a black magic card you stamp your image with white Craft Ink wait for it to dry and then colour over the white image with your Water Colour Pencils. This time however I tried the Heat Emboss Black Magic Technique.

With this version you stamp your images from the Beautiful Moments stamp set with Versamark ink, cover with your white Stampin Emboss powder and heat until the image is glossy. Using your gorgeous Water Colour pencils colour quite heavily on the white embossed lines. To finish off your card you drag the colour over your image until you get the desired effect with the fabulous NEW set of three Water Painters.

It was so much fun to try something new and I really love how the image really pops off the page! Try this fun technique out and let me know how you go!

Hop on over to see what my incredibly talented friend Cheryll Miller has created for this month’s blog hop. I just know you are going to love it!

I had the pleasure of working with an incredible g I had the pleasure of working with an incredible group of talented and creative children who poured their love and dedication into making handmade @stampinupofficial Mother's Day presents. From colorful cards to delightful crafts, their imagination truly knew no bounds! 

Not only did the children gain new crafting skills, but they also learned the importance of expressing love and appreciation through heartfelt gestures. These handmade gifts are more than just presents; they're tokens of the unbreakable bond between a child and their mums. 
I hope all of their mums have an incredible Mother’s Day!

The textures in the plants and landscapes were absolutely breathtaking. I can't wait to incorporate some of these textures into my Crafting with Cazz business. 

From the smooth, shiny leaves to the rough, textured bark! 
As a Queenslander we don’t really get fall but the leaves falling around you whilst walking here is so magical 

There are so many unique and beautiful textures to work with. Can't wait to get started on some new projects!

One of the most significant places to visit on Anz One of the most significant places to visit on Anzac Day is the Shrine of Remembrance.

The Shrine of Remembrance is a beautiful and imposing structure that serves as a tribute to the Australian men and women who have served their country in wars and conflicts throughout history. 
Visiting the Shrine of Remembrance on Anzac Day is a powerful and emotional experience that connects visitors to the past and present, and helps to keep alive the memory of those who have served and sacrificed for their country. It is a time to reflect on the true cost of war, and to honor the men and women who have given so much in defense of their nation.

Just caught up with my long-time friend Alison ove Just caught up with my long-time friend Alison over the most exquisite high tea at Hopetoun Tea Rooms! ☕🍰 

It was like stepping back in time to an era of elegance and sophistication. The delicate pastries and sandwiches were almost too pretty to eat, and the tea selection was extensive. But what made the experience truly special was getting to reminisce with Ali about old school days and catch up on all the things that have happened since we last saw each other. 

Nothing beats good company and incredible food in a beautiful setting. Thanks Ali for an amazing morning ❤️

Vale Barry Humphries: A Master of the Arts The wo Vale Barry Humphries: A Master of the Arts

The world of arts and entertainment has lost a true legend with the passing of Barry Humphries, the Australian comedian, actor, writer, and satirist, who died yesterday.

Humphries was a multi-talented artist who created some of the most iconic characters in Australian and international comedy, such as Dame Edna Everage, Sir Les Patterson, and Sandy Stone, among many others. With his sharp wit, irreverent humor, and impeccable timing, Humphries entertained and challenged audiences for over six decades, pushing the boundaries of satire, absurdity, and social commentary.

Beyond his comedic genius, Humphries was also a gifted actor, director, and writer, who excelled in various media, from stage to film to television. He was a true Renaissance man of the arts, with a deep knowledge and appreciation of literature, music, and visual arts, which informed his work and enriched his performances.

Humphries was a trailblazer in many ways, breaking down barriers of gender, sexuality, and cultural identity, and paving the way for a new generation of comedians and artists to follow. He was also a mentor, a friend, and a supporter of many aspiring talents, who looked up to him as a role model and inspiration.

Barry Humphries will be deeply missed, but his legacy will live on, as a testament to his immense talent, creativity, and contribution to the arts. His influence will continue to inspire and challenge us, to question and laugh at ourselves, and to appreciate the power and beauty of the human imagination.

Rest in peace, Barry Humphries, and thank you for all the laughter, joy, and wisdom you brought to our lives.

Yesterday turned out to be quite the rollercoaster Yesterday turned out to be quite the rollercoaster of events! My husband was involved in an accident while riding his bike and thankfully, two wonderful people (Sarah & Michael) came to his aid. They immediately took him to the hospital and stayed with him until he was all stitched up and ready to go.

I am so grateful for their kindness and willingness to help a stranger in need. It's heartwarming to see the good in people, especially in moments of crisis.

Thankfully, my husband is doing well and is on the road to recovery. We are both so appreciative of the kindness and care shown by these two strangers, and we will never forget their selflessness. I’ve sent off a gift basket to them as a way of thanks and will make up a card once I get home! 

Life is full of surprises, some good and some bad, but it's comforting to know that there are good people out there willing to help when it matters most. Thank you to those two wonderful souls who helped my husband in his time of need.

Crafting inspiration is everywhere, and I recently Crafting inspiration is everywhere, and I recently found a ton of it at the National Gallery of Victoria yesterday! 

The art pieces on display were not only stunning, but they also sparked a lot of creative ideas. I was particularly inspired by the textures and colors used in the contemporary art exhibit, which I can't wait to incorporate into my own projects. 
Ann added bonus was I saw my first Picasso…. Im not quite sure how I felt about it to be honest. 

Overall it was a truly amazing experience, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who loves art and crafting x
