Lorraine's Loft: 09/17/14

Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge. Thanks to everyone who joined in last week too :-)

This week the challenge is ,,,,,,,,

TAG IT

you can make a tag or add a tag to a card/project.

We are showcasing TIM HOLTZ PRODUCTS this week. You don't have to use them to join in but if you have some we would love to see them used.

As always Simon Says Stamp will be giving away $50 voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store

I made 2 tags today

For this 1st one I used Big Top Cling Stamp Set , Schoolhouse Layering Stencil, Linen Ribbon and Industrious Stickers

I hope this juggler doesn't drop his dreams ,,,, lol :-) I really didn't know what sentiment to put with this so just used the one that came in the set !!

I used various Distress Inks and a Graph Background Stamp to make the background and then stamped and watercoloured the image on watercolor card and fussy cut him out before smothering him and the step with glitter.

Next up is my interpretation of Tim's September Tag for 2014. I more or less did exactly what Tim suggested except that I used Feathers for her hair rather than butterflies :-) I was intending to join in with the tags for the whole year but I got waylaid ,,,, I have a few to go back and catch up on. It is a great way to practice new techniques and get to know the products better :-)

So now it's YOUR turn ! Happy Crafting !!

Freckled Fawn sent us all a lovely parcel with Washi Tape, Gems and Stickers. I made another little gift bag ( love this We R Memory Keepers Gift Bag Punch Board) and used the Washi Tape on the tag and added a little cute freckled fawn !! :-)
