Tag it Tuesday!

GOOD MORNING my sweet friends & welcome back to another "Tag it Tuesday!"

First of all, I just wanted to let you all know that I probably won't be able to post Monday through Thursday like I would LOVE to :( I am trying to balance everything in my crazy BUSY life! I will for sure post 3 times a week with the exception of release week! Like always, my AMAZING team will have something for you! :)

So I figured the day I don't post a "new item", I'd thought I would share an "oldie but goodie" project with all of you!

This is tag that I created last year using some FUN products! You can see the original post to this HERE on my blog! There is a minor change since you have seen this last! I have revised one of the sets which was "Beary Special Thoughts revised". The links I have in my original post are not up to date so I put the corrected links below of what I used! If you would like to see a video on how I created this, you can see it HERE!

(Updated list)

MCT Products Used:

~ Beary Special Thoughts

~ Just Tags

~ Scallop & Stitched Circle Dies

~ 4x4 Journal Die & More (heart)

Inspiration Wednesday!

GOOD MORNING my sweet friends & welcome to another "Inspiration Wednesday!"

Today I was inspired by my brand new inks that rang my doorbell yesterday! ;) hehe!

I am IN LOVE w/the NEW color ink for January by Tim Holtz & the color is called "Pistachio".

I think this color is SOOO PRETTY & soft! I just used the ink pad & smushed it onto my craft mat & used it as a watercolor background for my card!

New Tim Holtz Pistachio Ink

Here is my card in it's entirety!

To finish off my card, I stamped the sentiment using archival black in. Then I cut out my Flower Petal Dies, added some Sugar Coating Chunky Glitter with glossy accents! Then I tucked the flower into my pocket die from my Fun Pockets Stamp & Die set! Lastly I added the little butterfly die & added a teeny heart to the butterfly & adhered it to the pocket!

MCT Products Used:

~ Fun Pockets Stamp & Die set

~ Flower Petal Dies

~ All Around Holidays (butterfly die)

Inspiration Wednesday

GOOD MORNING my sweet friends & welcome to another "Inspiration Wednesday!"

Sorry for not having a video for you today, I just didn't feel like fighting w/it today! lol…

For my card today, I was inspired by my new watercolors I had gotten a couple of weeks ago! I CAN'T BELIEVE it took me 2 weeks to use them!!! lol…. OMG…I LOVE them! The colors are BEAUTIFUL & I LOVE that there is a bronzy, gold & pearl color in this set!

I just LOVE that greenish color I used on my card because w/my other watercolors, I would always have to mix colors together to get this! I also used that bronzy color to paint a frame around my cutie patootie dear from my set "Oh Deer". I basically just did a wash of color for the background then painted a frame for my deer! I used pop-dot to adhere it to my card then added that cute little heart to him! Next I added my sentiment from this same set, then adhered it to the base of my card. Last I added some cord I had in my stash & tied a simple bow to finish it off! OH, I also added glossy accents to the little heart! This is a pretty simple & easy card to throw together! I forgot ONE MORE THING I did, I also used my tim holtz tool to distress the edges of my card! :)
