For our next challenge we have Teamie Michele's theme.

Hello all, Michele here, my theme for the next two weeks is "Farm Animals"

On these tags I have background papers by gecko galz, farm images from whimsical dream art, and the rest are just various goodies from my stash.

Words/Sentiments

Hi Everybody!

It's time for a new challenge and this time our lovely pinky is hosting with a great theme. As always our challenges run for 2 weeks and tags of all formats are welcome. So, over to Pinky:

Hi, it's Pinky here and my chosen theme this fortnight is

add words and/or sentiments to your tags. Easy right?

I have gone with Christmas tags as I am way behind this year!

For my first tag I have used a gorgeous background paper

which really did all the work for me and I just stamped

some snowflakes, added some little white dots and stamped

the sentiment to add on top. The top has had a fringe added

to finish it off.

For my second tag I have used the same papers again

but this time the tree scene.

I stamped snowflakes again and added some stars to the trees.

The sentiment was stamped then cut up and layered on card.

I'm off to make some more😁

Gorgeous tags, Pinky! Now we want to see YOUR lovely tags, so keep them coming!

Thanks to our wonderful DT sister Sandie who made such lovely tags for the last challenge, and to all who joined in. Hope to see you here again this time round. And this is what Wendy has to say:

Wendy K here from wendyscraftjournal and my theme for the next fortnight is Halloween, a bit late but I love the bright colours that come with Autumn and Halloween and enjoy working with my Halloween stamps at least once a year. They all have distress inked backgrounds with stamped and die cut images. You can use any media you like, and I look forward to seeing what you do.

A Form of Transport

Hello Everyone, it's Sandie here, first I must Thank You all for the fabulous tags that you entered for Valerie's theme Autumn Colours.

This fortnight it is my choice of theme, A Form of Transport it can be vintage or modern, whatever takes your fancy.

For my tags I went mono, with another colour. However the photos aren't great as the white seems either blue or grayish, sorry about that, must be to do with the light, or type of card I have used.

The Red Truck

The Red Bus

I hope you will play along, remember a form of transport can be land, sea or air, just have fun.

Hugs Sandie x

Animals

Hi Everybody!

We are starting a new challenge, and this time our lovely Pinky is hosting with the theme animals. Here she is to tell you all about it!

Hi it's Pinky here and my chosen theme is animals,

any sort or shape!!

For my tags I have gone with chickens!

For my first tag I made a mixed media background

with lots of stamping, stencilling and embossing paste.

I stamped and cut out the chicken, coloured him up

and added it to my tag. I finished with a fun sentiment and ribbon.

My next tag is another chuck.

Again I created the background by stamping, stencilling

and ink blending. I stamped the fence and coloured and cut it.

Added my chicken and a sentiment and finished

with a bow. I am a bit in love with this stamp set!!

Gorgeous tags, Pinky, so happy you are hosting, and I love your theme!

As always our challenges run for 2 weeks, and tags of all formats are very welcome. We are looking forward to seeing what you make!

And whatever you do - have fun!

This Tag is one of Tim Holtz's large tags that I folded in to a pocket.

Then I stamped up the outside before adding all the elements inside, which are also stamped.

I do hope you can join in and create a tag, any size, any medium, but it must be a Tag.xx

Books

Hi Everybody!

Hope your week got off to a good start. Today we are starting a new challenge and this time dear Valerie - that's me - has chosen the theme. You can do anything to do with books - use some book-paper, make a tag about book characters, make a tag which would double as a book-mark - there are lots of possibilities.

Before I show you what I have made I wanted to thank Michele for her lovely challenge of mermaids, and of course, all who entered that chalenge with wonderful tags. And many thanks to Sandie, too, who coordinates the themes, dates, posts etc and has often written the posts while I was ill,

As always you have 2 weeks to enter, and all tags, big or small, real or digital are very welcome. I look forward to seeing what you create.

I have made several grungy tags for this challenge - I just felt like it, and some are more grungy than others! I know some don't like grunge, but I do!

Have fun, be creative, and I hope to see your lovely tags here!

Valerie

Here are 2 examples - I will be posting more tags during the next 2 weeks:

This is very grungy, and made with a spare piece of cardboard which happened to take my fancy:

Mermaids, Merpeople

Hi Everybody!

This time round Michele is hosting. Thanks to all who joined in Pinky's lovely challenge.

Here's Michel to tell you all about it:

I'm excited to be hosting our latest challenge. As we welcome summer in my part of the world, it is fun to go to the water and imagine what is living beneath the waves, so my theme is Mermaids, but for sure it includes all the Merpeople!

Here are some sample tags to get this started.

Images are from dream cafe art and gecko galz.

Please join the challenge and let your imagination of undersea creatures come out to play.

Thanks for these wonderful tags and inspiration, Michele!

You have 2 weeks to join us, and we enjoy visiting your blogs and seeing your creations. And above all,

Have fun!

Hot colours!

Hello Everyone, hope you are all well. Thank you to all of you that entered our last challenge, your tags were awesome.

This time around it's teamie Pinky's time to host and her theme is Hot Colours.( Red,Orange and Yellow )

Here she is to tell you about it...

Hi there, it's Pinky here.

This week I thought I would challenge you to use

HOT COLOURS for your tags.

For my first tag I inked up the background in hot

colours then stamped the flower in black over

the top. I did spray with water and lift some colour first.

It was matted onto black and finished with a ribbon.

For my second tag I used my inks to get a water colour effect.

I simply used a wet brush with watered ink from my pad

and created the yellow and washed out red stripes.

I stamped the flower in matching colours, along with the leaves,

cut them all out and layered onto my tag.

I finished with a little sentiment and a punched bow.

We hope you will join us over the next 2 weeks...Enjoy..xx

Nautical Theme..

Hello Everyone, hope you are all well and ready for our next challenge.

It was lovely to see so many Tags for Valerie's theme, all special in their own way, so a huge Thank you to you all.

Also Thank You to our lovely boss lady Valerie and our Design Team, that support each theme without fail each fortnight, such a lovely bunch of ladies.

So on to this fortnights challenge, chosen by me, Sandie. I hope you like it,lol.

I have chosen Nautical because I think there is a wide variety of interpretations of it, from Boats/Ships, Sea, Lighthouses, Sea Creatures, Pirates, the list is endless. You can have Modern or Vintage images, just so long as they are within the Nautical theme.

Here are my Tags...

I highlighted some areas with glitter, as shown in the photo below.

We hope you will come along and join in with our challenge...xx
