Can you believey

Tuesday Taggers is ONE year old.  Who'd have thought that we would have gotten this far with so many followers and so many crafters joining in with the challenges every week.

As is normal for me I am late in wishing Tuesday Taggers a happy birthday, as I am with most birthdays.

Teri one of the fab design teamies has drawn a fabulous cake image which you can use to do your tag.  We are getting everyone including us teamies to swap tags with another person in order to celebrate.

I have coloured my piccie in with Stampin' Write markers.

Balloons      Pumpkin Pie and Really Rust
Ribbon        Summer Sun
Cake           Chocolate Chip, Close to Cocoa, Creamy Caramel
Plate           Mellow Moss, Sage Shadow

I have used Pumpkin Pie DSP and Chocolate Chip/Whisper White Cardstock.  I used the 'Circle of Friendship' stamp set for the greeting and Chocolate Chip Double stitched grosgrain ribbon to finish it off.

I hope you have fun joining in with this weeks challenge.

I hope you like and until next time

happy crafting

Swirls and Curls

Hi Guys

Well what a week I have had. I had a fab day in Alford on Saturday with 9 lovely ladies, a workshop and my fellow SU! demo Zoe. Sunday I was in Skipton with lots of other lovely ladies celebrating a 60th birthday with a person who didn't know it was going to happen (which was fab) and today I have picked up my shiny new car (a brand new Nissan Qashqai (pron Kashki)).

Well onto today. Tuesday Taggers have swirls and curls for their topic this week and the lovely Pat has chosen the topic.

Here is my entry for this week

I am hoping that you can see the swirls on the backing card. These have been made by using the Whimsy Wheel (SU!) and versamark onto whisper white c/s. I have then used my brayer to colour the ATC using Creamy Caramel and Really Rust. I have used the corresponding Stamp Set Garden Whimsy. I have stamped the butterflies in Creamy Caramel on the ATC and then stamped on a scrap of card the two butterflies. I cut them out, including the bodies and stuck them to the ATC. I have also used the phrase from the same set. The ribbon is Chocolate Chip 1/4" grosgrain. I have stuck a length of it on the left hand side of the card and added a bit that has been frayed. I have then stuck a bow on top.

I hope you like.

Until next time happy crafting
