Alda's Challenge-Flying Unicorn

I Love Alda's card/tag challenges...they always make me think...and since I still have such a hard time layering these tend to help me think...most times the first project I never like LOL but by the time I get to the third one I am more comfortable...if that makes any sense at all...anyway here is the hcallenge and what I made for it all three entries!

There are things tied with Love and on your card/tag you must incorporate them ALL - yes all 14 of them :)

Lost my Mojo

Evening my scrappy friends....I've been staring at this months sketches and I just can't seem to find my mojo LOL so I trolled a few sites and ended up on Beyond the grey challenges and inspiration struck! Their new challenge Textured Tag...I went for bright and cheerful :) I used texture paste and a simple stencil, lots of mist and a couple different stamps

 I basically used what was already on my desk...left of over die cut some butterflies...haha even the stamps I used just happen to still be on my desk...I think I need to clean my desk LOL

 I was trying to find a good angle so you could see the texture...I don't have any small stencils so most look a little off on smaller projects...this one just happened to fit pretty well!

Thank you so much for coming to take a peek at my found Mojo! LOL

Live in Bliss-tags challenge

I don't normally post stuff I make for Flying Unicorn here on my blog (I have no idea why) But I really wanted to share this cute tag I made for one of their challenges. The challenge is to make a paper tag-Let me be more clear, you have to create a tag with only one sheet of paper.You cut and decorate your tag with the same sheet of paper a little fussy cutting, a butterfly, lace and of course background texture.

this is the paper I used....

thank you for coming to take a peek!

Creativity dwells within

I am kind of excited about the tag challenge over at get creative.....Its a color challenge this week, I really have a hard time with color challenges but this one was great! So I decided to make this pretty tag for my daughter, anyone who reads my blog knows she is a very talented and oh so creative....she loves to sew....here is what I came up with! For some reason the colors look off but I promise the tag its self is Red and White with black paint sponged on!

 I made the dress out of fabric flower petals just a bit of tulle and just a tad of ribbon, I used liquid pearls for the necklace...I cut out the dress form from a piece of card stock same with the thread holders( haha I forgot what they were called!)

thanks for taking a peek!

Home is where

Tag challenge over at get creative....." So your challenge is to make a tag with lots of flowers they can be paper flowers or handmade or crocheted or on the pattern paper or stamped be as creative as you can!!" I'm not sure if I have a lot of flowers but there are a few LOL....

I used texture paste and a stencil for the roses along the side...shhhh and I used my daughters sewing machine while shes away at a con this weekend...it has all sorts of funky stitches....
