Yellow, orange and red with Gingersnaps

The colours yellow, orange and red are the new challenge over on Gingersnaps. I just love paisleys and I thought these wonderful sumptuous colours just lent themselves to this look. These paisleys are really quite dimensional and the large one has numerous layers to it, several layers being copper metal. The stamp is designed by Elusive images at Graphicus. It is also glitzy as you can see quite well the glimmery mists that I have used on the background.

Circle tags with SCD

Rather late posting but here is my contribution to the Circles challenge over on SCD this week. I must admit not only do I enjoy making tags but I also enjoyed the circle challenge immensely. The cogs were cut from a Tim Holtz die and covered with a Terra paint coating, the covered with ferro paint and on the high points some metallic paint gently applied to ad a bit of contrast. The background postage stamp is a Paper Artsy Stamp. The cogs were attached to the tag with large eyelets and paper fasteners all adding to the circle theme.

Resaved image

Well I have re saved image and have uploaded again. I will keep fingers crossed and go check on another computer!

No did not work. Will sleep on the problem and try again.

Fantasy Tag with SCD

More tags this week and the theme is Fantasy over on SCD. Here is my take and what is more fantastic than some of the images and stories from Alice!

I was blown away last week by the creations for "Are you sitting Comfortably?" Loved them all and I loved how people interpreted the theme. Just fabulous. Thank you to everyone who played along or left wonderful comments. It does make the week better and more fulfilling.

Have a go at this weeks and see what you come up with. Can't wait to see your creations. Take a look how different the design teams are over on SCD.

Have a good week!

Are you sitting comfortably? with SCD

We are still on tags this week with a new theme. Are you sitting comfortably? There are quite a number of chair images around at the moment so I thought this would lend itself to these. However any take on the theme is fine. Mine definitely changed since setting the theme. I think it is fabulous how everyone on the SCD design team has a different angle to the theme just proving how versatile it is. 

Hop over and have a look. We would love you to play along.

Tags are the July theme over on Something Completely Different. Great fun in my mind! 

This weeks theme is Hearts which lends itself to so many different interpretations and layouts. 

Here I have used one of my all time favourite stamps, which I call Balloon Hearts from Paperbag Studios, available in the UK from The Stamp Attic. 

Come join in the fun. I love tags.
