"Love and Romance" for "Tag You're It"

Tag You're It have chosen "Love and Romance" for this weeks challenge so here is my "Love" tag.
The heart and background are stamped with "Layers of Colour" "Heart" stamps.
I hope everyone has a wonderful Valentines Day tomorrow x

"Numbers" for "Tag You're It "

#1 Here's my tag(on the right) for this weeks challenge at "Tag You're It" ...."Numbers"
I have cut a 1 out of card and added paper, ribbons and mini round tags with the sentiments. The paper and ribbons are "Brenda Pinnick "
All I need to do now is find a soon-to-be one year old !

#2 My first tag was so like the lovely DT member Dawn's that I have made another one (on the left). I know how everyone feels about copying and although it was pure co-incidence (even the number !) I hope I have redeemed myself !

Sugar Candy Kisses ! .....TYI

Here is my "Sugar Candy Kisses" tag for "Tag You're It "
Sorry the pics not good ...the tag's a lot paler in real life...but I hope you like it anyway !

(The hearts say..."sugar"..."honey"..."sweet"...!)

Rainbow Lady....and... Tag You're It !

Here is my piece for "Rainbow Lady"...which is "Black and Green" ...
and "Tag You're It"....which is "stripey".
I tore strips of green and black core paper and stuck them to the tag....then I ran the tag through a cuttlebug folder. I put gloss highlights on the black card (but wish I hadn't done that now!) I then added the rose,sentiment and ribbon. I guess adding the rose is stretching it a bit for Cynthia's challenge so I hope its ok Cynthia!
I hope you like it !

Tag You're It....Pink Brown and Green.

Here is my tag for this weeks challenge at "Tag You're It" which is "Pink, Brown and Green "
I used "Cosmo Cricket" for this one as I am going to use it in an album I am making.
I hope you like it !

Altered Fabric Flowers...Tag You're It

Hooray... one new modem later and we are back online ! Lets hope nothing goes wrong this week..... !
Here's my tag for this weeks challenge at "Tag You're It" ...which is to alter a fabric flower.
I folded a giant Prima flower in half and made it into a "fan" tag.
The fan is laid onto a half moon shaped piece of thick card
...and the "mini fan" (on the front of the folded flower) is made from medallion stamping which was cut into pieces and tied together through a small hole before pulling into a fan shape.
Hope you like it !

"Dream" Tag...for "Tag You're It " ...

Here's my tag for this weeks challenge "Dream" on "Tag You're It"
The frame is made with a Paper Artsy stamp
... and the base is put through a Cuttlebug folder
I hope you think it's dreamy !

Tag .....for "Tag You're It " and "This Thursday its all about ".....

Well as my sort out is going quite well, and I can actually find things now, I thought I would stop and make a tag for "Tag You're It" who have the theme "Monochromatic " for this week.
I am also entering it for This Thursday it's all about" who have asked us to use old stash....which is perfect timing seeing as I am knee deep in the stuff ...!
I went for pink (surprise,surprise... Lol !)
I've twisted and glued the ribbon for a change.

I hope you like it !

Stitched Tag...."Tag You're It !"

Here's my tag for the challenge at "Tag You're It" who have challenged us to make a tag with stitching on.
I've used an Anna Griffin fabric square for mine and did the stitching on the fabric before putting the tag together.
I haven't put any words on it as I'll use this on a card at some future date !
I hope you like it !

"Punch" Tag

Here is my tag for "Tag You're It" which has challenged us to make a tag with punch art on it .
I've just gone for a simple look for this one.
I hope you like what I've done!

Christmas Tag in August !

This Tag Card was first aired on my blog back on 24th July when I made it for another challenge but I thought it was worth airing again so that anyone making their cards can copy it if they like it. I used Brenda Pinnick for it...the same as I have on the new one below for the" Tag You're it" challenge



The challenge on "Tag You're It" this week is to make a christmas tag so I thought I would make one with slightly less traditional colours to give it a more modern feel.
I will probably mount this on to a card after the challenge.... I raided my Brenda Pinnick stash for this one again!
Hope you like it !

Tag...Faux Postage

Here is my tag for "Tag You're It" which this week has the theme 'faux postage' I used my "faux stamp" for the background and took it from there...
Hope you like it.

I stamped the background with a "Faux Postage" rubber stamp, then added the miniature postcard and trimmed it. The corner of the NZ stamp was tucked under the postcard. I added the main postage stamp and the word "discover" and finally I added the buttonbrad and ribbon.

Lime, Teal and Black...!

Here's my tag for this weeks "Tag You're It" challenge.
Its as close as I could get to lime and teal....
so I hope you like it !

I've Gone Crackers.....!

The theme for the "Tag You're It" challenge this week is to make an unusual shaped tag. I have made a cracker shaped one to hang on a bottle.

Fairy Tag

OK.....It's safe to take your sunglasses off now! No more Orange....I promise...Lol !
Here is a fairy tag for the "Tag You're It" challenge (fairies )

I haven't got any fairy stamps or pics so I did what I could with what I've got.
It was nice to join in this challenge as I like doing pink girly stuff !

Thanks for looking and hope you like it.....!

Tag....

This is a tag I've made for the "Tag You're It" challenge. I hope you can manage to stand on your head and read the poem !
The Challenge was to use cream, red and brown colours. Mine looks a bit pink in the pic but I think that is because I sandpapered the life out of it to make it look old !
Hope you like it anyway....!

4th of July

Good wishes to all American crafters today...the 4th of July.
Here is my tag to commemorate this day. I hope you can read the poem on it (please click pic to make it larger )
It is entered in the "Tag You're It!" challenge(4th of July) and also the "Layers of Colour" challenge(flags)
I didn't have any matching ribbon so my rosette is made from the card and paper that the tag is made from.

Tag in a Pocket

I have made this tag in a pocket for the challenge on "tag you're it "
It's made from K and Co papers.
Hope you like it !

Now for a bit of a natter......

I am making bags for my local scrapstore at the moment so it's a bit hectic...I am on bag number 54 so far ! They are given out to the children to put their things in instead of using carrier bags and the idea is that they use it to collect their scrap goodies when they call in. If you've never heard of scrapstores then please look it up and see what is in your area because there are goodies galore waiting there. The material I am using was donated by Mostyns...so there is some good quality stuff to be had. Our local scrapstore charges £5 a year membership and each bag of stuff bought is £1.50. It's good to re-cycle and it's lovely to see the children having fun. I will post a pic of one of my bags later on in the week plus the labels I came up with to put on them so watch this space ...lol !
Things are still moving forward on the caravan front and the owner of the one we are hoping to buy is back from France tomorrow so I don't think I will sleep much tonight ...!
