LETTERS TO SANTA

It has been a little while since I have done a Layout, considering I used to do approx 7 LOs per week till I discovered Cardmaking :)
I used the gorgeous Webster's Paper Collection- Waiting for Santa on this LO & the cute lil boy is my son Brody hahaha!

The big Holly Flowers were white but I sprayed my Cosmic Shimmer Mist on them to create the colour to suit the LO.

TFL Peeps & have a great weekend

CHRISTMAS IS A COMING!

Good Morning & Happy Monday to all :)

Over the past week I have been busy & managed to do a few cards as well but as we have had
so much rain here in Rockhampton, I hadn't been able to get any pics done- but a brief break in
the weather this morning allowed me enough time to snap 2 of my latest cards woo hoo!

I Did 2 Tilda cards with my new stamps from the Merry lil Christmas Collection from Magnolia.
.....Yay!... I have so many to make this year hahaah! Whose bright idea was it to make cards
instead of buying them this year! ummmm I have made about 6 & have about 20 more to go!!!

Anyways I did a Pink Xmas card- a different colour for me & it did turn out cute tho & used
the Magnolia stamp- Jolly Tilda- she is so cuteeeee! The 2nd card, I used Secret Tilda- so
gorgeous this stamp is! On the red card, I heat embossed the Holly Leaves.

TFL Everyone & enjoy your week

This cute little pair of Faeries are always into mischief- typical lil boys huh lol!

How the naming of this stamp came about is-: The Aussie slang for someone full of
mischief or just a little bit naughty or ok...really naughty lol is called a
Larakin! Ashton is named after my 3rd son Ashleigh- that is the male way of spelling
Ash too as I totally checked all that out when he was born hee hee:)& Boo is the
nickname of my 4th & youngest son Brody.

I did a tag style card with my image of The Larakins & you will have to wait & see
what I did with them for the RELEASE BLOG HOP ON WEDNESDAY!!!! too cool! :)

With this card, I drafted the Gum leaves & Gum nuts to really give this card an
Aussie feel & used colours that would suite the theme:)

Don't forget to check out the DT & GDT cards for their gorgeous "The Larakins"
cards...mmmmmmm just fabby!

THE EMERALD FAERIES COLLECTION

I can finally reveal the name of my new Collection Peeps- Ohhhh it has been so difficult to remain
so tight lipped about this Collection which is now finally in rubbah!!!

My company, Deb's Creations, wanted to bring to the stamping world a Collection that is both
different & Australian by nature- hence this amazing collection came into being:) My very talented
Illustrator, Linda Catchlove, has brought these 4 beautiful little faeries to life through her passion
of the Australian bushland & forests. Linda worked for the Walt Disney Studios here in Australia
 for 10 years before branching out to follow her dream & now has her own studio & is currently
working on her own artwork for her own Exhibition- whoot whoot!

Starting from this Saturday, all the DT & GDT that have been so busy working on cards using
these gorgeous Images will reveal their cards- 1 image per day through to next Tuesday. Then on
Wednesday the 10th of November, the Full Launch of the Collection will take place via a blog Hop
 with prizes of  hidden candy ect...fun...fun...fun:) The rubber stamps will be available for purchase
as of next Wednesday in my Online Store & are Exclusive!!! woo hoo!

Here is my 2nd Sneakie of my card- pretty tricky hey lol!

Have a brilliant day
