Hello! Today begins a new challenge for us over at Chromatic Craze. This time we’re going bright with our colors…
Here’s the tag/bookmark that I made.
The stamps I used are from Unity’s new Pun stamps.
Thank you for looking! I hope you will play along with our neon color palette this month.
Hello! Happy Weekend! Today begins a new challenge at Musically Challenged. This time we’re drawing our inspiration from Bad Girls Club by Falling in Reverse.
Our sponsor this time is Kenny K, so that’s where my image is from.
The video is really high energy and fun, so I tried to incorporate that into the tag I made. I kept getting the cheer from the song stuck in my head, so that was what I used for the sentiment on my tag.
I used some of my Dylusions sprays and some scraps to make the background…
Thanks for looking! I hope you can find the time to play along with us!
Hello! Today begins our fourth challenge over at Chromatic Craze! Here are the colors we are working with this time around…
And here is what I made…
I made an ATC, then attached it to a burlap tag and added an embellishment to the top.
This awesome image is from Rick St. Dennis.(This link goes to his new shop that has a ton of images in it!)
Thanks for looking! I hope you have time to play along with our color challenge this month!

Hello! My project today is a reminder for our current challenge at Chromatic Craze. I went with an art journal page this time around. The fairy is one of my own doodlings.(according to spell check “doodlings” isn’t a real word…well 
And my daughter wanted to play along, too, so here is a tag she made…

Sorry for the lack of posting…we’re all sick here. Here’s a little gift tag I made for ADFD Challenge #40 “Found Paper”.
I used some cardboard packaging to make the actual tag, and used some old tissue paper for the background.

Hello! I’m very excited to show you my projects today. The book to read this month at Pixie’s Bookshelf was Switched by Amanda Hocking. I had heard lots of good things about this book, and about this author. And I have to agree with all of those great reviews. I loved the book so much that I had to run out and get the second book in the series and read it, too! Now I have to impatiently wait until April 24 to read the third book.
I made two projects for this challenge. Belle of the Ball from Pixie Dust Studio reminded me of the ball scene from the book, so I made a card with her…
And then I made a funky tag/mini bookmark, too.
It says “Trylle vs. Vittra”(in case you had trouble reading it). The letter stamps are Studio G, and the other two stamps are from Smeared Ink. I covered it in crackle glaze.
If I explain too much about the tag, or the characters I really like from the story it will give too much away if you haven’t read the books, so I’ll just keep my mouth shut for now. I have ideas brewing for further projects, though. You know it’s a good story when it inspires your creativity.
Thank you for looking!

Hi! I have the privilege of being Ms. January for Bombshell Stamps! So, I was able to pick my own challenge for this month….”Let’s Play Tag!” People just have to make a tag, or use a tag in their project, using Bombshell Stamps this month.
Here’s what I made, using the Harley Bikes stamp set from Bombshell Stamps.
I used two tags! I embossed the big tag and then distressed it. The small tag came with a pair of my husband’s work boots, so I snatched it up and stamped on it.:)
Thanks for looking! I hope you get a chance to play along with my challenge this month.

If you haven’t seen anything about it already please go read Meredith’s post about Ryan and his need for cards.(or click on the button on my sidebar) It’s a good cause, so I decided to make a card for him. I looked at some pictures of his bulletin board in his room and noticed that he had a quite a bit of Red Sox swag, so I wanted to incorporate that into my card.
The tag comes out of the pocket…
I love making these pockets!
I’m going to mail it tomorrow. I hope it brightens his day when he gets it.:)

I don’t know why I’ve had such an aversion to tags up until now. I liked them when other people made them. I just couldn’t see myself being able to make attractive ones. But I’ve been really inspired by some of the tags Alex has been making lately, so I thought to myself: “Self, you really need to try to make a tag. Sooner rather than later.” So I did. And this is how my first real tag turned out…
I used the Tim Holtz Sizzix folder to emboss the brick pattern. Then I realized I didn’t have any yellow colored Distress inks, so I used a Copic instead to make it look like a yellow brick road. The “good witch bad witch” stamp is from Artful Illusions. The paper is from Graphic 45. The metal hands pointing in different directions are from my stash. And the awesome Dorothy digi is from The Octopode Factory shop.
I would like to enter this into the following challenge: TOFF #6 Girls Girls Girls
Thank you for looking! Hopefully I will continue to get better at making tags!:)
