Operation Smile Convention Layouts

As I shared with you in my previous post, I was asked to present in the Extravaganza at our annual CTMH Convention last weekend. I created many projects to share, and will show you more during the coming weeks. 
I donated these two layouts for the Operation Smile Auction that is held on the last day of convention each year. I am proud to say that one was purchased for $175.00 and the other for $125.00 - for a total of $300.00 - which equates to a little more than one "SMILE"!
Altogether, on the day, in excess of $17,500.00 was raised! That is nearly 60 new "SMILES" for children born with cleft palettes who would not otherwise receive this sometimes life saving surgery. I am honoured that I can contribute in a small way.

This page was created using:
Oh Deer Paper Pack, Gold Glitter Paper, White Daisy, Cocoa, Bamboo & Sea Glass Cardstock, A1187 - World Joy Stamp Set, D1704 - A Child is Born Stamp Set, S1610 - Yuletide Joy Stamp Set (only available during October) Z3261 - Stars Thin Cuts, Z3260 - Hearts Thin Cuts, Z4005 - Gift Thin Cuts, Z4008 - Cozy Christmas Thin Cuts & Stamp Set, Z4015 - Woodland Wishes Thin Cuts & Stamp Set, Versamark Stamp Pad, Gold Embossing Powder, Clear Sparkles  ShinHan Twin Touch Markers - Mahogany, Brown, Clay, Barely Beige, Marigold, Golden Yellow, Turquoise Blue, Peacock Green & Warm Grey Thin 3D Foam Tape  White & Gold Twine - coloured with Turquoise Blue marker

It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

I know that Christmas is still a couple of months away, but it is not too early to start getting some pages ready for all those Christmas photos I know I will be taking!

This page was created using the City Sidewalks Paper Pack, along with the cute Christmas Down Under Stamp Set (C1663) and the Joy to You & Me Stamp Set (C1656), along with some Willow & Peacock Cardstock and finished with Silver Shimmer Trim. I cut the window from the Artbooking Cricut Cartridge. I coloured the koala and kangaroo using ShinHan Markers. 

I am off to our annual Australasian CTMH Convention tomorrow, so make sure you come back soon and catch up on some of the news and see what I have been creating!

Yuletide Joy

The NEW Stamp of the month is available from today! You won't want to miss out on this stamp set - especially if you like to make cards are are planning on scrapping your Christmas photos. 


I just love that you can colour a little or a lot of these images - or you could just stamp and they still look gorgeous. 

For this one, I gold embossed the image and just added a little colour to it. This is part of a bigger project I have created, but I can't share it yet. This is just a sneak peek! So keep coming back to see the whole project.

Come back soon to see what is NEW and what else I have been creating.
