Anything Goes~ Tag!

Hello Everyone!!!

This week's challenge is "ANYTHING GOES"...super easy one!!!

So here is something little different from me...a tag.
A beautiful tag makes any gift extra special...

Sorry for the poor photography...taking photo of tag/bookmark and glittered project is a real challenge for me.

Now What do you all think about fabulous New set????

It is BIRD SONG.. one of the many new stamps now available in WW store.

This set can be used for birthday,miss you, thank you,christmas, scrapbooking...and many more projects. You just don't have to use the birds and cage always...the set comes with a lovely tree branch and different size of flowers..very soon I'll make card with these images.

Its one of my new favorites...loooove the birdcage..it very hot amongst the crafting trends.

I just didn't make tagfront ...I also managed to finish the back of it...

I used Mixed Greetings stamp set for back.

I also used the flower from the Birdsong set to create my own background .

We're going to stir things up bit...from next week onwards WOODWAREUSA weekly challenge will posted on Mondays...you will get to see all the fabulous DT samples at a glance.

Hello Everyone!!
Its Friday...my day again! This week's challenge is Halloween Colors.
We always don't have all the stamps for every ocassion ...I know I don't! Sometimes we don't want to spend on specific holidays/celebrations stamps because we won't get to use them all year long....but we all love to make cards for all of them...like Halloween !
So today I used a non halloween image with few seasonal papers and some supplies from my backyard to make a Halloween card..

How cute is that puppy witch on the broom!!!

I've used A Dog's Life stamp set. 

Just tied some Raffia to a piece of twig to make the flying broom... then added  witches hat to the cute puppy.

I used some of Woodware USA's fabulous Peel off sickers too.

So here is cute Halloween card with everyday stamp set !

If you would like to play along with us you can link your creation here.

Challenge #2:Birthday!!

Hi Everyone!

I'm back with challenge#2 card.
This week's challenge is Favorite Technique.

I love clear stamps and I've few favorite stamping techniques .... masking, paper piecing, combining stamped images or sentiments from different sets to make a new image or sentiment. I use Copic markers mostly to color my images. The most fun thing I like to do with stamps is to make or use the stamped image as embellishments.This card has almost all of my fave techniques in it . I also love Kraft cardstock a lot. For this card I used ROBINS stamp set for the focal image  and combined the sentiments from ROBINS and TEDDY REMEMBERS Stamp sets. Paper piecing is a great way to use all the little scraps we have on our craft table.

So show us your fave technique....you have until Sunday to link your entry.

Thanks for stopping by...

Have a fabulous day!
