Digital Scrapbooking Studio beach ball challenge 4

Digital Scrapbooking Studio had scrap and chat on the four Saturdays in June.  I managed to download the links for the last three and managed to join the chat on the last one.
https://www.digitalscrapbookingstudio.com/community/topic/17992-beach-ball-scrap-n-chat-june-24-with-ben/

I did two layouts for the last challenge

I used the papers and elements and the prompts from the last week.   I didn't add any photos for the first layout.  For the second layout I used a photo of my second grand daughter.  Her birthday surprise for her 18th birthday was a weekend trip to Queensland and a Rhino encounter at Australia Zoo and a day as a seal trainer at Underwater World Sea Life, Sunshine Coast, Queensland

I would like to add this layout to the following:

Christmas card club - white Christmas

I am a couple days late adding my card for the Christmas Card club.
It was Lorraine's turn this fortnight and she chose white Christmas.
I thought of snow, which we don't have at Christmas here in Australia as it is summer at Christmas time and is usually hot.

I have used paper, sentiment and precoloured digi stamps from Polkadoodles Here Comes Christmas CD.  Added teddy bear from Imagine That Candy cane Teddy set.

If you would like to see the cards by the other members of the Christmas card club their names are listed down the left side of my blog.
