Cure for the Monday Blues in Gold

My favorite neighbor is moving away....she also loves my card and is one of my best customers....I rummaged through my card supply to give her some as a good bye present and I made that tag for her to go with the cards:



The inspiration for this I got from Taheera's Cure For The Monday Blues inspiration picture and since I used gold embossing powder I am also linking this up with Addicted to CAS.

And since I had so much fun making the tag I made a second one:


 Same color scheme - same challenges.

And here is another picture:


Its really hard to bring out the gold in the picture....



Supplies: Mama Elephant tag die, Mama Elephant Full House, the script dies are by Papertrey

How sweet to make 2 pretty tags for your neighbor to let her know how much you will miss her. Liked the handwritten 'already' on #1. The 2 colors sponged on the tag worked so well with the bright gold of the little houses. Liked the dimensional dies on #2 as well, and each tag is a little beauty. I'm sure your neighbor will keep you in mind & heart! TFS & Happy Sunday.

Your friend will be extra sad to be moving away from you, a most generous, thoughtful, warm-hearted neighbour! The tags are gorgeous, as is the gift of cards you're giving her. Hopefully, she won't be too far away!

Katzelkraft - Stampotique Raven

Hi Everyone, Do you know that   Katzelkraft has aquired Stampotique stamps? This fun raven is designed by Daniel Torrente (#6314). I used an old background from my stashs.  I stamped the bird and colored it with alcohol ink markers.  I brushed distrss ink onto the background and added some pattern with the   Mandala Magic stencil  from Funky Fossil Designs.I used one of the border stamps on the left for more interest.  Stamped the sentiment  and doodled a frame around the sentiment.Added a googly eye to the bird and drew in some eye lashes.  The stamps I used are from the following sets: Spiral Borders - KTZ286,  Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276  (FRANCE) Spiral Borders  - KTZ286 , Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276 (USA) Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration.  Thanks for visiting! Happy Stamping! Linking up with: Simon Says Wednesday challenge  - fur or feathers

Combined So Suzy and The Ton Blog Hop

Hi Everyone, I am sooooo excited to be part of this amazing event - a combined hop between So Suzy Stamps and The Ton! I have been eyeing The Ton stamps and dies for quite a while - they are just gorgeous! And So Suzy - well you have seen their stamps on my blog - they are simply fabulous! I also love that they are made from rubber - its different stamping with them. Its much better for generational stamping and they don't stick to your paper when you use your Misti. You may have arrived from the fabulous  Eunji - its a hard act to follow her.... I got those gorgeous  Peonies Dies  from The Ton and die cut them with water color paper. Spritzed Dylusion inks on a sheet of plastic and dipped the dies into the colors. Mounted them onto black card stock. Added the So Suzy Birthday sentiment - heat embossed in white. Lastly I added a strip of envelope liner paper at the bottom. Here are my supplies: So Suzy Birthday sentiment ,  Peo...
