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

Challenge Entry

Hi Guys

As you all know I am on the design team for Tuesday Taggers, well this was created because another challenge site had to close its doors for what we thought forever, but it is back and that can only mean one thing, Tag You're It!.

The first challenge is On a Bough.  How lucky am I that I have bought the new set from Stampin' Up!, Bird On A Branch (which you can purchase by emailing me here).  It is a fab set that works best as a silhouette.

I have brayered the top with Ruby Red and Pumpkin Pie using a 1 3/4" circle punched from a post it note.  I have gone over the circle with Summer Sun after to just give it some muted colour.  The hills have all been done with Mellow Moss and Old Olive at different strengths.  Then the main focal piece of the tag is the bird on a branch.  I have stamped with Basic Black for the main image and then restamped by stamping off.  The blossoms are from the same set but have been stamped off first before stamping on my image.

Finally I have added the greeting, again from Bird on a Branch and ribbon, More Mustard grosgrain and Mellow Moss gingham ribbons.

So why not hop on over to Tag You're It and have a go yourself.
I hope you like

Until next time happy crafting
