Fashion!

I'm here to share my mid month tag and ATC for our

fashion theme over at

Tag-along (and ATC's).

This time I used a gorgeous oval tag from

Tonic Studios which has embossing

around the top.

I stamped my image using 

Uptown Girl Polly loves perfume

and coloured it up with markers.

I ink blended in yellow and pink

distress oxides around my image.

I highlighted the embossing with

black fine liner

and stamped some little flowers and

sentiment in the pink area

using a stamp called Dressed to Impress (SU).

I used an old SU stencil

and some embossing paste to

add texture and then splattered in

white ink.

I finished with a black organza bow.

************************************

For my ATC I went with a masculine fashion feel.

The background was made by inking

up using distress oxides.

I then stamped the main image using

a set from The Stamp Man - Men 2.

In the gaps I stamped some dots using

a set from Visible Image called

grunge tones.

I finished with some stencilled numbers (SU)

and embossing paste and

added some splattered white and gold ink.

I hope you get time to join us as

we have a lovely prize up for grabs!

Football Crazy!

It was our Grandson Sean's 11th birthday last week

and as always, I like to make a box of some sort to gift

him some money and of course chocolate!

He is very much into his Gaelic and supports Man United

FC so I went with the football theme and their colours.

Inside it holds two bars of chocolate and a loop in the middle

allows you to pop in some money.

It closes using some Velcro dots.
