WS and TT!

Abbreviated because I’m tired, but happy to be back in the creative loop, as it were… I made this card for Wednesday Stamper’s “Orange” challenge, using an image from Ten Two Studios “Orange Things” sheet. It’s a small card for a friend’s birthday:

Using another image from the same sheet, I created this birthday tag for [...]

Tag, You’re It!

The Weekend Taggers have asked for “Wings” this week and my new stamps from Home Impressions NL arrived this morning, so I cut them up and couldn’t wait to play! I’ve used two images from the Funny People sheet on both sides of this tag…just had to add german scrap wings!
Even Funny People have wings… [...]

Tag, you’re it!

I so enjoy making tags (when time permits!) and was instantly inspired by the weekend taggers theme – “Diamonds are a girl’s best friend!” I have a fab African stamp sheet from Home Impressions – 2 of the designs I have used for the background feature diamonds and I found the sweetest image on Little [...]

SaWo – Spraying backgrounds

I’ve been to Tim Holtz’s blog again – swept up in the 12 Tags of Christmas – and have been trying my best to emulate his tags, with a degree of success. Taking into consideration that I probably only have about 10% of the supplies necessary for Day 6, my tags came out better than [...]

Tags go triangular!

This week, the Weekend Taggers have asked us to make triangular tags and this little pretty will go on next year’s Christmas tree. Why not this year’s? Well, it’s too traditional and I don’t feel DD and DH are ready for a handmade tree at present. Maybe next year I’ll have my own creative space [...]

Tick, tock…

That’s this week’s Taggers theme and inbetween all the stuff of life, I took time out to play a little. A simple Cuttlebugged tag with clocks and the pointing finger from Home Impressions. The clocks are from Tandastamps. It’s amazing how versatile that pointing finger is – I can combine it with almost any other [...]

Autumnal Tags

Tag, You’re It! This week the girls are asking for autumnal tags. I had a piece of card on my desk, from when I cut down a greeting card I was recycling and I thought it’d make a really nice double tag. Too skinny for a single and using 2 tags made it easier to [...]

Tone on tone Tag

TGIF – Tone on Tone: Shades of yellow right down to the wired beads! Tag, You’re It! – altered fabric flowers – stamped silk flowers… Me? I fink I’b catchin’ a cold… fick head, heavy eyes and an early start for work toborrow!! (I honestly sound like that you know!!)

I’m off to watch “Wire in [...]

Innocence

Tag, you’re it… a bit later than usual because poor Anne was ill this week – she got attacked by children’s diseases and caught herself a chest infection and laryngitis. I think it was Cecil B DeMille who said, “Never work with children or animals” wasn’t it? You weren’t listening Anne!!
I don’t like sketches. Not [...]

‘Dream’ Tag

Tag, you’re it have posted their Friday challenge and this week it’s incorporating the word ‘Dream’ or similar in your tags. I chose to alter one of DD’s round clothing tags. The back (originally the front), is really lovely, so I left that as it was and went to work on the back with gesso, [...]
