I Fibbed ! Tags Part 4 !!!! Final Part - For Now !

A very Good Morning to you ! 
I was just sorting out my sample box and found these two lonely little tags which escaped being photographed last time ! So , here they are - the last of my tag samples for a while though I do have a romantic card and it's matching tag to share with you very soon ! 




I love the sentiment on the second tag - Stampin' Up have some beautiful stamp sets that include wonderful sentiments and these are lovely to add to a card , especially if you want to send a special message to someone ! There is nothing more lovely than to receive a handcrafted card that has been made specifically with you in mind. 
Have a great day - I'm off to craft !!!!!

Tags Part 3 ! ( For Now !!!! )

Good Morning ! 
Just another quickie today to share with you the last of my tags - I'll be doing more - I have a love of tags as you may have noticed ! They are a brilliant way to show techniques in a small compact space and very useful for workshops ! I like to add them to a scrapbook page and they sit nicely in little pockets on cards too ! 





Tags are also useful for experimenting with new colour combinations and layouts which can then be translated onto a bigger card or layout . I'm really enjoying stamping collages at the moment and mixing up all my stamp sets ! 
Wherever you are today - have a great day and happy crafting !

Tags Part 2 !

Gorgeous sunshine here today and spent a lovely day out at Hidcote Gardens in the gorgeous Cotswolds ! I have a really busy week ahead so need to be super organised and have made lots of things to share with you ! Today I have more tags to show you - I got a bit carried away making these ! 




There is so much scope with all the lovely goodies brought to us by Stampin' Up ! What is really lovely is how the products are showcased in so many different ways - we all have a style of our own !!!
One more post with more tags to come and then onto something different ! 
Thank you for taking the time to stop by ! Happy crafting !

Tags Part 1 !

I have had a day off today to enjoy the lovely weather on our little boat - it was so nice to sit out on the back and feel the warm sun on my face ( I was wearing gloves and a fleece however !!!!! ). I have been very productive of late with my crafting and have lots of things I have made to share with you over the next few posts - the first of which are some tags which I designed to showcase different stamp sets . 





These tags are useful to show individual stamp sets and also ones that go well together ! I have also shown the use of lots of embossing folders which add a nice texture on a small tag !  The tags can be used as gift tags or toppers on cards or even as part of a scrap book layout ! 
Many more to come - do come and visit again !

Mr & Mrs Wedding Card !

Morning ! Just a short post today to share with you a wedding card I have recently designed. Cards for these occasions are traditionally white / cream / ivory - but weddings are getting quite colourful nowadays so I thought I'd join in ! It features the single stamp Mr & Mrs which I love and it heat embosses really well too ! I have also used the heart from You are Loved ( another well used favourite of mine ) .




Supplies Used : 
Card stock : baja breeze, very vanilla and pool party 
Stamp sets : Mr & Mrs , You are Loved and En Francais
DSP : More Amore
Accessories : paper doilies, antique brad , Artisan embellishment kit , perfect pearls .
Dies / Punches : bird builder punch, 6cm Scallop circle punch and oval accent Bigz die 


I have to get out in the sunshine ! Hope the sun is shinning on you today ! x
