Winter Holidays

Seasons Greetings to Everyone from all of us here at Tag Tuesday

I've chosen "Winter Holidays" as my theme for the next two weeks. my research has revealed SEVERAL winter holidays to choose from! I found: Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Solstice, Los posadas, Diwali, Boxing day, three kings/epiphany, Eid-ul-adha, and New Year! This should give you plenty of inspiration for making your tags. 

For my inspiration samples I'm starting with 2 digital tags for Winter Solstice (December 21st), then collaged tags for Hanukkah which begins on December 25th this year, Christmas which is also December 25th, and 2 tags for Kwanzaa which begins on December 26th and runs through the 31st. if I get another burst of energy I might do some more winter holiday tags! 

Which holidays will you choose? 

 

Whatever holidays you choose, we look forward to seeing what you create!

Love to all, Michele x

Alphabet Favourite

Our Current challenge is HERE

 It's that time again, where I announce the challenge favourite Tag from the Alphabet theme.

Not so many entries for this theme, however the tags that were entered were all pretty awesome, so a big Thank You to you all.

The Challenge Favourite is Elle

Congratulations Elle, please take your badge and link us to your blog.

There is still a week left to play along with Pinky's Christmas theme, the link is at the top of this post.

Christmas!!

Hi, it's Pinky here.

Many thanks to everyone who joined in with Sandie's theme.

We all love to see your amazing tags

which are always very inspirational!!

Remember to pop back next week to see who

the challenge favourite is.

This fortnight, as we are getting so

near to handing over those gifts,

I thought Christmas tags would be perfect for us all!!

For my first tag I went with a shaker tag!

I made a bauble shape for my shaker

and added some sweet sequins and of course some holly and berries.

For my second tag I went more traditional.

Everything was from my scrap bin other than

the stamped bauble and holly.

I finished the tag with some machine stitching

and added a nice bow to both the top of my tag and the bauble.

Come and join us this fortnight!!

As always any medium can be used,

but it must be a tag!

You can enter as many times as you like,

but each entry must have it's own blog post.

Day of the Dead

Many Thanks to everyone who joined us over the last 2 weeks, there was such a variety of  Tags for Pinky's theme.

Do pop back in a week to see who the challenge favourite is.

This time around it's our Michele's theme of "Day of the Dead" and here she is to tell you about it and share her fabulous tags with you.

Hello Friends, since our most recent challenge went all in on Halloween and Spooky Vibes, I thought I would encourage us to celebrate day of the dead.

 The day of the dead (Spanish: Día de los Muertos) is a holiday traditionally celebrated on November 1 and 2, it is widely observed in Mexico, where it largely developed and is also observed in other places, especially by people of Mexican heritage. 

The holiday involves family and friends gathering to pay respects and remember friends and family members who have died. There are a lot of interesting themes and images that emerge: skeletons, skulls, marigolds, food stuffs, and altars in remembrance of the dearly departed. 

I hope people will have fun with this theme, and I'm offering a few tags to get us started.

My images are mostly from gecko galz collage sheets and paper packs, with other bits and bobs from my stash. I hope you will play along, and perhaps use this opportunity to remember loved ones who have passed on. 

We are looking forward to seeing your tags, as always please add your link here:

Challenge Favourite for Seasons

Current theme is Spooky Vibes

I  must apologise to you all, this month hasn't started well for me, I was late posting our current challenge and even later posting our challenge favourite, a slap on the wrist for me.

Anyway, I shall move on and tell you that Valerie has choosen Kym Decker's Tag as her favourite from the Seasons theme.

Congratulation Kym, please take our badge and link us to your blog.

Pinky's theme of Spooky Vibes is still ongoing, so do pop along and join us if you can, the link is at the top of this post, just click on it.

Spooky Vibes!!

Apologies for the late post everyone, I hope it hasn't annoyed anyone to much.

Thank you to everyone that joined in with Valerie's theme of Seasons, we sure had some fabulous entries. Valerie will be hard pushed to just chose one next week.

So on to today's challenge, which will run for 2wks. Our lovely teamie Pinky has chosen the theme of "Spooky Vibes", which I am sure will conjure up some fab entries. Here she is to tell you about it...

 Hi everyone. I hope you are all ready to share

some spooky vibes with us this fortnight!!

For my first tag I have made a spooky house scene.

I like to add spooky tags to the Grandkids

Trick or Treat parcels!

My next tag I used a spooky face but I think

he is more cute than scary lol.

Again I inked up the background, stamped

the wording and bats then added my

stamped monster face. 

I hope you get time to join in this fortnight.

Aren't Pinkys tags awesome!

As always any medium can be used, but it must be a  tag. 

You can enter as many times as you like, but each entry must have it's own blog post.

So, what are you waiting for.....go and get your Spooky Vibe on!

Seasons

Hi Everybody!

Valerie here after a long break . I have been in and out of hospital these past weeks, and hope I can stay at home for the next time - home is always the best place to be! Thanks so much to Michelle, Pinky and Sandra who have been shouldering all the work while I was gone, much appreciated.

Today I am starting a new challenge, and my theme is seasons, as I love to see the changes in nature. Autumn is always my fave season - the colours are so beautiful and I love to kick my way through piles of leaves, or watch them swirling in the wind!

Today I have 4 tags to share, one for each season. I'm starting with autumn as that's where we are now:

Winter - cold and frosty:

Spring - time to start gardening:

Summer - warmth, flowers, birds singing:

I hope you will enjoy making a tag about your favourite season, and I look forward to visiting your blogs! Have fun, be creative, and enjoy life!

Challenge Favourite for Seaside

Current Challenge

Hi Everyone, a little late in posting the Challenge Favourite for Pinky's theme "Seaside"

As always with choosing a favourite Tag, it is difficult as they are always awesome, so Pinky had a job on her hands.

Congratulations this time to Kym Decker for her gorgeous Seaside Tag.

Be sure to take your badge Kym and link us to your blog.

There is still a week to left for our current Challenge, Michele's theme is "School Days"

The link is at the top of the page.

School Days

  Hello Everyone, hope you are all fine and dandy, seems here in the UK, summer is winding down already, the nights and mornings are darker. Children returning to school after their summer holiday, for many a new start or a change of school. Time just flies by...Christmas will soon be here, lol.

Many thanks to all that entered Pinky's Seaside theme, do check back in a weeks time to see who she has chosen to receive our Badge.

So on to the School Days theme, chosen by Michele, here she is to tell you about it.

"At this time of year most children are returning to school after summer break, if they have not already.

I'm happy to be hosting the "School Days" challenge and I am indulging my nostalgic feelings about returning to school.

While I confess I am perfectly happy not having a little one to get ready for school anymore, I very much enjoyed it when my own child was school aged."

Here are some Tags I have made to get you started.

I have images here from Gecko Galz. Tim Holtz, Arthouse Whimsey, retired Mischief Circus and  random bits from my stash.

I hope you will join in with this theme...Michele

Seaside

Hello Everyone, many thanks to all that joined in with my Vintage theme, as always they are all fabulous, which makes it hard to just choose one for the challenge favourite.

To find out who that is, please check back in a weeks time, in the meantime, we have Pinky's theme to play along with, here she is to tell you about it.

Hi, Pinky here. My theme for the next two weeks is the seaside.

I love everything about the seaside and long for a visit

throughout the year! So what better theme for August.

For my first tag I used a stamp set called Circle Sayings

which has a circle with the waves and sunshine.

I then stamped and cut all the shells for the bottom,

added a sentiment and finished with a bow.

For my second tag I used a piece of paper which had a

seaside theme. I stamped the little girl taking a photo along

with the bird and coloured them up to add to my tag.

Hope you get time to join us this fortnight.
