WMS Tag You're It! Challenge

Hi all, another taf for THAT competition over at WMS!

I have made a bottle tag using my new found fave, kraft card! Stamped in versamark using Season's of Love, I cut a red label using Nesties Labels 1, then embossed using a new folder by Cuttlebug in a script style. Then cut another smaller label in a pale grey card, and stamped the frame from Very Vintage Labels 1 in London Fog ink.

Stamped in red the little snowflake to each corner, and dropped a little glossy accent onto each one. Added the sentiment from Very Vintage Christmas, and some grey pearls.


Layered up and added a piece of bronze ribbon from stash.


Cut a little frame for the top using nesties, and added some pearls.


Finally cut a small frame and added the sentiments and lines from Season's of Love.

Now feeling Seasonally, sentimentally lovely!

WMS Tag You're It! Challenge

Hi all, another tag for the competition over at Waltzingmouse Stamps.

I have made a tag using a lime green glitter card base cut using a Spellbinder Blossom die, layere over with gold angel hair, also cut using the blossom die.


Then using kraft card, clear embossed the heart from Season's of Love, and stamped the sentiment from the same set in Memento Rich Cocoa.

Added some glossy accents to the edge, and covered in gold glamour dust, I'm also covered in gold glamour dust! Using a felt flower from stash, cut and layered up 2 glittery green snowflakes cut using a Kars punch, and added a green gem to the centre.

Layered all together, and threaded some raffia and ribbon through the top.

I love it!

Thanks for stopping by xx

WMS Tag You're It! Challenge

Hi all, another tag for the competition over at Waltzingmouse stamps, today is the last day, and ther's a fab prize to be won so get cracking!


I have stamped the candy cane wreath from Faux Fun Circles in Ladybug Red, cut out with nesties, and layered it onto a frame cut using a Nellie Snellen die. Stamped the circular sentiment from Oven Fresh Gingerbread Joy set, and added some red gems.



Then stamped the little gingerbread girl from the same set, and cut her out using the smallest Nellie Snellen die in my set. Finally, added some black gems (I heart them!) and threaded some ribbon through the cut out edge.

Thanks for looking!

WMS Tag You're It! Challenge



Hi all, I have a tag for the Tag You're it competition over at Waltzingmouse Stamps.

I have used a white linen base and stamped the candy wreath from in Lady bug red Versamagic ink, and stamped the little leaf motif from the same set over it in Bamboo Green to make a christmas wreath.




Then using a Nellie Snellen die, cut the frame in black metallic bazzill (not sure what it's actually called!) and layered it over the wreath. Cut the label out by hand as I don't have a big enough circle die to do it, so it's a bit wonky! But hey, it's hand made right?

Added the sentiment from Very Vintage Christmas in Tuxedo Black. Then stamped the little framed snowflake in Ladybug red again from the same set. Added some coloured gems and red dewdrops for some berries, and made a little label for the back.


I have used a smaller Nellie Snellen die, and threaded some black and gold ribbon through the little cut out edge. Cut a small white circle using nestabilities, and stamped the little frame from Faux Fun Circles in Ladybug Red.

Stamped To. and From. in tuxedo Black from Very Vintage Christmas.

Love the way this tag turned out, and I LOVE my Nellie Snellen dies, they are soooo pretty, even without the ribbon!

Thanks for looking!

WMS #22

Hi all,it's Saturday hooray! and another fab Waltzingmouse Stamps Sketch Challenge. Things have been a bit taggy over there in recent weeks, and this week is no exception!

So, here's the sketch:


And here's my take:



Three tags for wine or anything you like! I will be entering these tags into the Waltzingmouse Tag you're It competition, today is the last day to enter, so get your skates on, there's a very generous prize to be won!

All stamps used are Waltzingmouse, with a combination of Spellbinders Nestabilities and Nellie Snellen dies. Lots of ribbon, gems, glittery card and a snowflake punch have been used on these, I will post the details as I load the tags into the comp, saves me typing it twice ;-)


I have loved making these tags, this Tag competition has been such fun, I really hope Clare has more of this type of challenge it's been so inspiring looking at all the creations that have been made for it.


Thanks for looking and have a great day!

WMS Tag You're It! Challenge

Hi all, today I have another tag for the Tag You're It! Challenge over at Waltzingmouse Stamps Blog, if you haven't heard of it, the details are HERE, there's a fab prize up for grabs, and you can enter as many times as you like!!

I have made a wine bottle tag in kraft card as the base. Using Versamark, stamped some holly and berry images from Very Vintage Christmas to create the background.


Then, using Compliments of the Season and Seasons of Love created a label stamped in Versamagic Rosebud ink and Memento Rich Cocoa.



Have tied a little raffia bow with some green twine and some silvery tassel thread and attached a little christmas bell to it. Then popped a couple of flowers on top and layered a silver glitter snowflake - the green base flowers were coloured using a Pear Green Promarker.


Then around the bottle hole, added a cut silver glitter frame, using Nestabilities Small circles and small scalloped circles.

Finally, added some snowflakes and gems to the base, and some black pearls to the sentiment, finished off with a Martha Stewart zig zag edger punch along the bottom.

I am also entering this into the Tag You're It challenge blog, which wants a tag with scallops.

I'm very happy with how this turned out, love my new pack of kraft card, I can't stop using it!

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

WMSC #20

Hi all, I have a card today for the Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge. I have had this card in my stash for a little while, as I actually made it at a Stampin' Up party, I love how it turned out, and just can't bear to part with it! I love the tiny stamped labels and twine, and I love my bird punch.

I saw the sketch and I thought "Here's one I made earlier!". So here's the sketch:



And here's my entry:



I have used Stampin' Up Rich Razzleberry as a card base, and stamped a tiny floral motif as a background. Then made a panel in some plum and cream card, and corner chomped the edges.
Added the sentiment to the top of the panel.


Using Stampin' Up punches, assembled the bird on a branch, and cut a scallopped frame, and adhered to the front of the panel.


Added some ribbon around the bottom and stamped two tiny labels and punched out using the tiny label punch from Stampin' Up.

I am now going to try and whip up a quick card for another entry, I can feel my creative juices flowing!!

Thanks for looking and have a great day.
