Just a quick flashback to the Ekka after collecting my ribbons and certificates.   

I have  had a bit of time away from my blog while recovering from a respiratory virus. Lots to catch up on now. This is my entry into the Papercraft section of the Royal Queensland Show  or The Ekka as we know it. It is a box card in a presentation box . Love making these as you can ad so many elements. I was awarded a Highly Commended for my entry     

My Ekka entry for 2022 A typewriter adapted from a project by Taras Craft studio  I added the box underneath to hold two photo albums with family photos of our parents through the years and me and my family from very young to not so very young :) I was awarded First Prize and Best Exhibit in the Scrapbooking section for my entry.  The second Album in the box

My second entry into the Royal Queensland Show this year . The show was cancelled due to Covid however the judging had been completed the previous week so all prizes were awarded. My boxed album won 2nd prize in the Off The Page section  The album is from Blooms n Lace and I made the box from scratch   

This is my entry into the Royal Queensland Show this year. Although the show was cancelled for the second year the judging had been held the week before the decision to cancel was made. My watering can project was awarded 1st prize and Best Exhibit in the Scrapbooking section. It is a Craftknife Chronicles  project and consists of a watering can with a tunnel album inside. I chose Graphic 45 papers for the project   

I think I have shown this Diamond beading before as well but it is so gorgeous I think it deserves another look lol It is also an entry into the Ekka this year. Sorry the photography is not the best.

 Yet another entry for the show.  Think I got a bit carried away this year . Once again the  paper is Graphic 45 and I have also made a matching box and decorated the inside of the card I was awarded Second Prize in the Papercraft section for my entry

Another Ekka entry to share today  I have had this little suitcase in my stash for ages and finally came up with an idea for it. I have used a Graphic 45 page for the outside with timber embellishments. I added a Christmas morning scene inside
