Put a tag on it

Hi 

Its time for a new challenge over on Eclectic Ellapu, it Bonnie from the purple's team to choose the theme this week and she has chosen

Put a Tag on it

Never make tags so this was a fun project for me. I went with stamping, distress inks, and embossing powers. I have used a script stamp for the background and the flower, and green moss and rusty orange distress inks. The flower is Tim Holtz tattered floral, which I have just sold yesterday as it wont fit in my new Grand Galibur, I am going to miss this die as I have used it so much, but I have bought lots of new ones so can't wait for the post to arrive next week

The flower stamp is a free one from a magazine, and has been embossed with clear embossing powder

I would like to enter this tag into the following challenges

Divas by design- Flowers

At the Movies 

I decided to use Evanora Sassy, from Oz the great and Powerful, I haven't seen the movie yet, but I am so looking forward to watching it, my daughter has been lucky to see it twice, so she had a lot of input into this card to make sure it was right.

I had wanted to glitter the arms up but when I did this the glitter glue went wrong and ended up all over the image so Had to colour another one up, and decided not to touch the glitter on this one.

I have made the pin and heart embellishment using some beads, the sentiment is computer generated and the gold frame is from my stash

Groovy Dude

Hi all 

I hope you have had a great Easter,  I thought I would share a make card with you today, my Mother in Law sells my cards for me and has been moaning that there is no male cards in her collection, so I am trying to stock up. Today's image is from Kenny K called Groovy Dude and can be found here.

Male cards are super hard and always struggle what to add, I cut the music notes and stars on the cricut, and have used my around the block paper tagger to add them on to the card. This is a tool I have never really used, but I liked the effect so may use it more often
