Tag, You're It!

Hi there!

Today I have the pleasure of being the Guest Designer for the Tag You're It Challenge! I have so enjoyed playing along with this fun challenge focusing on one of my favorite things to create - tags!

This week's inspiration comes from this beautiful design from Marybeth Lopez:


I was inspired by the floral theme and the colors, as well as the cascading placement of the elements.


I started with a Kraft tag die cut with the largest of the Stitched Tags dies from WMS and used the Spring Blooms set from Wplus9. I just love creating with these tiny canvases. It is like a quick fix when you feel the urge to create something but maybe don't have time for a whole card.

If you are inspired by Marybeth's card, too, and would like to join in the challenge, be sure to head to the TYIC blog and link up your creation!

Thank you Tracey and the TYIC team for inviting me to join you today!

Hello

Happy Tuesday!

Isn't it sad that I am looking forward to the 30 degree temperatures we're forecasted to have this weekend? Yes, it is.

Other good things are happening this weekend, though, like a new Waltzingmouse Stamps release! Yay!

But lots to do before that - I'm just squeezing in my creation for this week's Tag You're It Challenge.

Here is the inspiration photo from Donna Mikasa.


I zeroed right in on the bright color palette and the bold black sentiment. I also was inspired by the repeating shapes, but instead of lining them up so pretty, I kind of clustered them behind the sentiment.


The different sized circles are from the Little Bits set from Wplus9. The die cut sentiment is the Hand Lettered Hello die.


I also added some Star Dust Stickles to a few dots to add some sparkle. Love it a lot!

Glad that you stopped by, I hope you have a great evening!

Tag, You're It!

Hi there.

Back again tonight, this time playing along with the Tag You're It challenge. I love to create tags, and this stunner from Debbie Hughes was our jumping-off point.


I jotted some notes down to guide my creation.. neutral colors, an animal image and glitter. I cracked open a fresh copy of the Winter Pals set from Wplus9 and reached right for that cute little skating fox.


Such a fun little canvas.

Glad to see you again, join me later this week for the Verve Diva Inspiration Hop!
