Lets Tag It at Divas By Design

Good morning the sun is out and we are off school. What have I got for you today another challenge for you that started on Wednesday and this time it is DIVAS BY DESIGN.

Our challenge for you this week is TAGS

yes a nice easy one and as we all like to make our presents look nice what better challenge. But if you fancy going that little further how about using one as part of your card.

Our fab sponsor this week is Shape EZ  and here is a little about them too

Shape EZ templates will enable you to create unique projects for every day use or use the templates to create special one of a kind projects. 

These templates and cut files make your projects quick and "EZ" depending on your choice of embellishments. 

These templates come with options, empowering you to choose to include extras such as windows, pockets, or even inserts of designer paper that will perfectly fit inside the base form. 

Shape EZ is an exclusive product you can use over and over again from TLC with Whimsy - an affordable way to create in your way. 

Ok now it is my turn to show you what I have made and I went with the card with tag.

 another pointing downwards hopefully the shine and glitter is a little clearer

I used a tag download from our sponsor. I have got my fingers inky with this one and used lots of ink and sprayed everything. The white snowflakes was done in white and heat embossed with clear ink and then spray added because of the embossing the ink didnt stick to it and i wiped off then added lots and lots of glitter . Some fibres to add some interest and that stunning Joy snowflake die on the edges which I was the lucky one to win at ELAINES .(thanks sweetie )

So now it is your turn but fancy a peep at some more stunning examples then pop along and checkout the rest made for your inspiration HERE

Take the Colour Challenge at Crafty Catz

Good evening a late posting in every way from me. I thought I had posted this and thought that you didnt like my card as I had no comments then I just checked while doing some comments and either blogger had eaten it or something. So I am sorry for my lateness. Well friday saw another challenge at CRAFTY CATZ and this week was the lovely Naomi turn to pick our theme.

A COLOUR SCHEME

you can either use all the colours or just a few but your card must reflect the colour swatch above.

you can pick any occasions for this 

Our sponsor for this challenge is the fab company Pink Gems Designs

with a prize of 3 digi images from their store

we where given some images to play with and I picked thiss cute bear sleeping on a cloud

.

I have used my promarkers to colour the image and the sentiment is a papermania one. I have mounted the image on one of my nestie dies and used a memory box die for the corner. The DP is a very old pad think it may be a dovecraft or papermania .
