December 22nd 2012

I Love Santa!

December 21st 2012

Wow where is the time going?? I've had a busy week working and am catching up on posts so here is my post for the current "I Love Santa" Challenge at Wicked Wednesday ATC Blog!!! A great new sponsor this time "Redonkulous Designs"!! We would love to see your Santa themed ATC's this week - just in time for Xmas!!

And my second ATC uses a Santa image from a great collage sheet from Lily at The Octopode Factory!!

A Xmas Lollipop!

December 19th 2012

I finally found time to play with my Dilly Beans Images and be able to join their Non Traditional Xmas  Colours Challenge this week!! The gorgeous digital patterned papers are from Gecko Galz and are named "Chocolate Box" and they are very yummy looking papers (I have another creation using more of these papers to share early next year!!) Lollipop girl is coloured with earthy/brown Copic Markers to match the papers.

New Baby Gift!

December 18th 2012

A couple of creations made using the new December Gecko Galz products - images from "Baby Mine" Collage sheets.

I bought some handmade natural soaps in pink & blue from my local health store and "wrapped" them with shimmery corrugated card, tied with ribbon and added the baby images on little handmade tags.

I'm entering these in the current Sugar Creek Hollow "For a Gift" Challenge!

Tis the Season

December 17th 2012

The theme for today at Take a Word is "Tis the Season". I made these little Xmas "scraplings" some time ago using xmas theme embossing folders and some collage images from Paper Imagery Designs - I love the pastel colourings I used to match the images! LOL I love anything with "pink" on it!! I'm really not ready for Christmas as we are so busy with our business at this time of the year - I am just looking forward to getting a day off!!!

Fairy Houses!

December 15th 2012
I'm late posting this for the new challenge!!! I had a slight accident with one of my specialised mowers and nearly cut the middle finger off my right hand!!!!! Not good as I have a very very painful fat swollen finger and black nail which is making it difficult to create or type LOL I am just happy though that I still have my finger - I have a dangerous career!!!!! Anyway here is my ATC and all details of the challenge below:

A new challenge at Wicked Wednesday "Fairy Houses" with our sponsor this week "A & T Designs" as our sponsor. The little fairy house on my ATC is from "A & T" and my dancing fairy is from a Gecko Galz collage sheet!
