12 tags of 2015

I really will be late for my own funeral.......but it will make everyone smile !!  Just got in by the skin of my teeth with my take on Tim`s tag...

This one was hard to photo because of the light catching the acetate butterfly wings...

Loved how my colours turned out as I didn't have any really bright ones. My first  card swipe through them came out very dark, but the second piece of card which is the one I've used is just right. The last swipe is very pale. I'm going to make two cards with the ones I haven't used.

Here's Tim's tag for our inspiration

I adore Tim's tag because of the bright colours which is really me !!   Me thinks I will have too invest in some more alcohol inks......

Fall/Halloween

Hope all you guys had a fab weekend !!  Not sure about mine,  Saturday had a flat tyre on the way to Card Club ,  luckily I can change them myself !!   Then yesterday poor Hugo stood on a wasp and got stung on his paw pad,  he shook for ages but after I gave him a pain killer he slept for a while and was OK !!  Could see me rushing off to the vets again....

Anyhoo time for some more mousey fun at House Mouse and Friends Monday challenge which is Fall/Halloween.

These little guys are really having fun !!

I've done my usual of stamping and colouring in with Spectrum Noir pens. Then made a frame and embossed it to look like wood to go around. papers are by Basic Grey called "Herbs and Homey". Finished off with some orange spotty ribbon bows and my pumpkins !!

You can find a fab little tutorial on FB by Enfys HERE for the paper pumpkins !!

Morning guys !!

Sorry I've been quiet this week, but been busy now making bits and pieces for a craft stall I'm having end of Nov. Sooo many things I want to make and can't decide which ones I going too.

Anyhoo got a simple card to show you this morning which I've made for my brothers wedding anniversary this week. It has a sort of early misty morning look about it I think.

Just blended three distress inks together to make the background, picked raspberry, squeezed lemonade and tumbles glass, ( love my bright colours as you know )  The stamps are by Artemio  called "Silhouette Foliage" and fab for making these kind of  scenes ( I do have trouble knowing when to stop...... )
