Tag Tuesday Challenge #43 -- Spring!

Finally, we are heading into spring -- I can't imagine that there are any of us that aren't happy about that.  So let's celebrate the change of seasons this week and create any kind of tag that says "Spring" to you.

I've created my house-shaped chipboard tag (thank you, Barb) with a tulip-bearing boy stamp from Oxford Impressions.

****There will be an RAK of a large assortment of chipboard this week, so have fun creating spring tags!

Christmas Cards

All stamps are by Oxford Impressions (St.Nicholas).

Wednesday Stamper

The challenge today at Wednesday Stamper is "Santa Claus."

My Santa Claus collage stamp is from Oxford Impressions's new stamp set. I just love this set for quick and easy Christmas cards. You can see it here.

TGIF

The challenge at Thank God It's Friday is "Little Witches." I made this for my October calendar page using stamps from Oxford Impressions.

Wednesday Stamper -- Double Trouble

I stretched Wednesday Stamper's Double Trouble theme to share these two works I created using Poe as the subject. The first is a 5x7 canvas, the second obviously a tag.

The Poe stamp is from Oxford Impressions.

Theme Thursday - Wings

New "Haunted" stamps from Oxford Impressions fit in nicely with Theme Thursday's wing challenge.

Stampers Sampler

The Oct/Nov Stampers Sampler is going to hit the stands soon and I have two projects featured in it!
This is the double-sided screen I made for Christmas and then Winter.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I also created this masterboard from Oxford Impression stamps along
with some cards and tags using the masterboard.

I love making masterboards and this is probably my favorite of the ones I've made.

More Fairest Flower

My Fairest Flower stamps from Oxford Impressions were still on my desk from yesterday (when I woke up at 4:00 this morning and went into my craft room), so here's another card I created using that set.

I reworked yesterday's card, too, as I made that card at 4:00 in the morning as well -- but I don't think I was quite awake yet:)

Stamps from, coincidentally, the Fairest Flower sheet by Oxford Impressions:)

Gothic Arches Turns Two

I can't believe the Gothic Arches site has been around for two years already! But they have and they are celebrating with some special challenges the next two weeks.

This week's theme was cupcakes, so I created my arch using my favorite cupcake stamp from Oxford Impressions.

Marie ATC's

Theme Thursday -- Seasons

Here's my calendar page for August which I just completed and which fits in nicely with this week's Theme Thursday challenge of favorite seasons.

All images are by Oxford Impressions. Calendar by Jenny Bolin.

TMTA

Here's the ATC I created for this week's theme of Flower Power. After rereading their post I see it was more of a tribute to the Flower Power of the '60's, but I went in a more traditional direction.

Oh, well, it's one more to add to my pile I need for the cruise anyway.
All images except the bird are by Oxford Impressions.

The Color Purple

The theme today is "Purple" at Theme Thursday. I used this prompt to create my 100th ATC for the 150 or so I need to make to exchange on the cruise. Whoo Hoo!.....I hit the 100 mark! The background text and image are from Oxford Impressions. The frame is by Rubber Stampede. My little violets are cut out from a vintage greeting card.

Tag Challenge #11 -- Summer Flowers

I received a new sheet of stamps from Oxford Impressions this week -- and used it to make this week's challenge tag. It's an older set called Fairest Flower. Which makes this week's challenge (probably more of a theme than challenge ) to create a tag using summer flowers.

And the winner of the stamp RAK for last week's challenge is Faye.

So e-mail me your address info Faye and congrats to you!
All images except the You Are Loved by Oxford Impressions.

Wednesday Stamper

I used my favorite fairy stamp from Oxford Impressions for this week's challenge at Wednesday Stamper. There is something about her face I just love. The sentiment is OI, too.

Background text stamp is from Paper Artsy.

You can see all this week's submissions at http://wednesdaystamper.wordpress.com.

Tag Tuesday Challenge #3

My challenge this week consists of creating a tag that has a pocket in it. For my tag I chose to include a vellum pocket at the bottom and then place a couple tags in the pocket. But you can interpret the theme however you like. I look forward to seeing what interesting pocket ideas are out there.

Since next week is the end of a long holiday weekend (Memorial Day), this challenge will run for two weeeks. Feel free to link your creations here until June 2. At that time I have an RAK I'll be giving away that consists of clear inchie stamps.

For my tag I have used stamps by Oxford Impressions.

Postage People

I've been wanting to try creating "postage people" for a while. Today this is the theme at Sunday Postcard Art. A wonderful tutorial was given, too. This is my take on the theme. Stamps are by Oxford Impressions (Background script); Lost Coast Designs (Mannequin); Paperbag Studios (Harlequin Design).

More Marie

I actually was going to use the image of the woman in the hat for yesterday's Theme Thursday piece, but found it too small for what I wanted. So it seems that the challenge at Thank God it's Friday (which is to make an ATC in arch shape) is just the size I need for the images from Oxford Impressions's Marie Antoinette set.

Like our guest artist at TGIF this week, I was inspired to make three of them.
