Anything Goes at Tag Tuesday

 I'm stepping in for our lovely Valerie, she isn't feeling too great, so I have offered up my Anything Goes Tag as some inspiration for her theme.

Hopefully she will better soon.

Here is my Tag...


The image of the Gibson Girl is a stamp, I actually have 3 of them, another identical to this one, but slightly smaller and another that has gears in her hair, the latter stamp would have been ideal for my tag, but it just does not stamp that well around the hair and gears.
The stamp I have used here stamps perfect every time and I always love to give her copper hair.
I do hope you find time to play along for the next two weeks.
Please make sure your tag is a tag, you can use any medium.

Travel at SPA.

I have the honour this week to host the challenge at SPA ( Sunday Postcard Art )
Each week someone choses the theme for the week and then at the end of the week, we pick our favourite 3 postcards for the sampler.
I do enjoy playing along whenever I can.
Anyway, on to my theme which is Travel, this can be any type of travel, even hiking.
Here is my postcard...


My postcard was cut from spare card that had watercolour paint on it, I used a stencil and a variety of stamps from my stash, then added the arrow, Route 66 shield and the car.
I enjoyed creating this postcard, maybe over done it with the stamping, but I like it, lol.
Do pop along and join us if you can, postcards must be 6"x 4" but you can use any medium.

Day of the Dead at TT

Time to share my Day of the Dead tag for Michele's theme over at Tag Tuesday
I've been away so have only just got around to posting her challenge.
Do pop over and join in if you can.

Here is my Tag



The skull is a freebie stamp I had from a craft magazine ages ago. I stamped it twice on some spare card, cut them out, coloured them and set them against a leaf design that I stamped directly and coloured on to the tag.

Seasons Tag

 Good morning everyone, weather here is damp and for the last few days literally thousands of leaves have fallen from the huge trees here, so I could be out clearing my little garden later when it dries up from the overnight rain.

I am sharing my Seasons Tag that I have made for the challenge over at Tag Tuesday.

Valerie chose the theme, I had a great stamp for the Seasons, however, using watercolour card, it really didn't stamp that well.



There is still time to play along in this challenge, you can find it here at Tag Tuesday.

Trees at Sunday Postcard Art

 Hi Everyone, Sunday Postcard Art have a new theme, this time it is trees, chosen by Annie.

I have several tree stamps, but decided to go with this one as it is terribly under used,



Unfortunately the sentiment didn't stamp to well, mainly due to me using watercolour paper, which is textured. I am annoyed at myself as the tree stamp I used with my stamping platform, so I could repeat it several times, I should have done the same with the sentiment!
The postcard was cut from a piece that I had been experimenting on with my paints.
Thanks for dropping by..xx
