New layout

[charmax]

Ok so it might be a little early... but bugger that. If the highstreet can have it's lights up already then so can I! :P

I'm really pleased and excited about this layout as it was all done from scratch. It was made using just custom shapes and the warp tool. Do you like?
I've also made it into a wallpaper :D

Okay, that is too cute for words, I laughed out loud, when I first saw it and I can't believe you made this yourself. Do I want to know the details and technique behind it? Hell NO, just thinking about it, makes my head hurt, but you outdone yourself once again and I'm sure that I will keep smiling about the header everytime I'm here. Just adorable and I love the wallpaper, bit naughty and still sweet, totally you! So now Christmas can come...*biggrin*

I couldn't tell you the technique even if you asked. I just twiddle in PS until something comes out that I like. I'm crap at trying to explain stuff. lol

Thanks Astarte. :D

I just wrote out the longest reply about these and I lost it all! Ok so I said - That they are amazing. You really have proved that the practice makes perfect. You graphic's have come so far so quick I think that if you made these into Holiday Cards you could sell them. The are so original but at the same time within a fashionable style, I reckon people would love them. I'd love to see a snowman one dressed as a witch, standing next to a tree with words Merry Winter Solstice on it **flutters eyelashes** wouldn't that make the perfect card? hehe. Ok I'm joking about me but they really would make great cards. Good for framing afterwards too.
I also think they would do well on art sites like deviant art. Anything you did from stratch would because you have developed a great eye for composition and colours so you know what looks good.
So yeah I love them and Drink and be Merry will be on my desktop all the holiday season :)

Aww thanks for all that hun! :D I'm so glad you like! Maybe if I make enough good ones I'll consider putting them on Deviant Art... I'm not sure though - everyone is so pro and I still feel like a novice. lol

Oh and I've been working on your Solstice one for the past few hours. :D

[colour-me-sassy.livejournal.com]

Oh you are def good enough, If I can do it you definately could :)

Oh wow, thanks hon I'm so excited :D

[titenani.livejournal.com]

WOW and reWOW !!!! That's beautiful hon !! :D I can't believe you did all this starting from scratch...this is awesome...you have so much talent !! I totally love the "scrapbooking" style you came up with...come to think of it..I'm sure you'd be very good at scrapbooking ;)

awwwww I LOVE Christmas !!! :) *yay*

Love the wallpapers...I'm stealing the first, if you don't mind ;) *oink*

[charmax.livejournal.com]

So much flattery nan and flattery will get you everywhere. lol
Really though, 'scrapbooking' I'm not so sure about... It sounds kinda fun but I have no patience. It looks like you need patience...

Hmmmm

But thanks again for the compliments. :D

[titenani.livejournal.com]

So much flattery nan and flattery will get you everywhere. lol

hahaha hmmm...that's good to know :P

yeah..scrapbooking takes a lot of patience..and preparation..with the photos and all...that's why I decided to stop...but I'd really like to start again when I have more time :)

Very cute! It's an awesome collage look. :D

[charmax.livejournal.com]

Thanks bunny. :D

[martoufmarty.livejournal.com]

Awww, it's so adorable!

[martoufmarty.livejournal.com]

Also, I hope you don't mind that I added you as a friend :P

[charmax.livejournal.com]

Sure Marty. I will add you back. :)

[martoufmarty.livejournal.com]

You can call me Stephanie you know... It is my name after all :P

[charmax.livejournal.com]

Do you not like Marty? I do. :P I will call you Stephanie though if you prefer. ;)

[martoufmarty.livejournal.com]

Marty, Stephanie, Steph, MM, dumbass, smartass... whatever. Doesn't matter...

If I didn't like Marty, I wouldn't have it as part of my screename :P

It's funny because alot of people tend to think at first glance that I'm a guy because of the whole 'Marty' thing. I find it quite amusing.

So call me whatever you want, just don't call me late for dinner!

Sorry, I had to say it :P

[charmax.livejournal.com]

^ lol ok what I call you will be dependent on mood.

[charmax.livejournal.com]

Thank you. :D
