Tag It

Hello ...

This is my second post today ... I don't usually post twice on CCCB day but I wanted to squeeze in a challenge ...

The lovely Kara Lynne has joined the DT over at 


And though I don't often make tags - I really wanted to play along...
This is the inspiration tag


I just love the red and blue and that coil of twine ... Here's my take


I stamped and embossed a piece of CS in white and then sponged two different inks for the blue background. I had a little boat already cut out so I also sponged the sails and boat with inks too


A white gel pen added a little more interest ... The stamps I used are by WPlus9
 In place of a coil of twine I used silver thread for waves and some craft rope for the hanger and finally backed it all onto a scrap piece of grey CS.

Ok that's all for now ...

Have a beautiful day/evening

City Crafter 270

Hello there!

It's my turn to host the challenge over at City Crafter this morning and I've chosen the challenge theme 
Woodland Animals
Create a card or project that features a  woodland animal


I made a card for a special little girl featuring a sweet little deer


The deer stamp is from a set by Stampendous and I just used distress stains to colour it
I'd already stencilled and splattered that background and it was in my 'to use' box


The little butterfly is a sticker from way back when


Our Guest Designer this week is Laurie (click on her name to go visit her blog Stamping up north with Laurie) I just adore her clean layered style and I know you will too!

As always the challenge winner will have a GD spot with us too. 
Head on over to the City Crafter Blog to see what the rest of the team have in store for you this week - We hope you'll be inspired to play along with us....

Wishing you all a Magical day

Till soon
