bird card which was meant to be a tag.

I originally started making this for the tag it on challenge which is "up, up and away", but somewhere along the way I forgot that was making a tag and it turned into a card. The stamp is from The Artistic Stamper. The background is done using the technique Jo showed in this month's craft stamper. I have used real dried flowers on this card so I have attached it to the back of the acetate with eyelets to protect them.
I am also sending this in for the current Art Raffle theme.

Don't forget it's Day three of PaperArtsy's 12 day of christmas with lots of samples and a giveaway, don't miss out!

a few challenges..

I decided to see if I could combine the challanges for ready steady stamp:
Wednesday stamper (Ride) and Tag it on (time flies). I'm pretty sure this piece satisfies all of them!
The main image is by Inka, the clock is non-sequitur and the quote is from Paperbag studios

serene tag

I've made this tag for a couple of challenges, Louise's tag tueday challenge, where the theme is masking (I use a tim holtz mask for the background) and Tag it on where the theme is simplicity and serenity. I thought this girl from The stampsmith has such a serene look I had to use it, and I kept the tag as simple as I could.......

As I have used a stampsmith image I have featured this on the stampsmith blog

tag it on

This week on the tag it on challenge, we are challenged to make a oriental card in blue.
I decided to use this stamp from PaperArtsy as it is very handily already in a tag shape.
All of the other stamps are also by PaperArtsy

tag it on!

Well here's a challenge site I haven't tried before, Tag it on.. The theme is Fairies at the bottom of the garden.
I used a fairy from the rose flower fairy set from crafters companion. wildflowers from crafty individuals, the music stamp on the artificial flower is from Paperartsy.

As I have used a music stamp and some music paper, I will also enter this for Theme Thursday's music or dance theme
and crazy amigos "fly with me" theme. I am also going to sneak this onto Secret Crafter's Brads or eyelets theme as I have used one of the extra large We R Memorykeepers Eyelets on the flower.
