Inkspirational Challenge #201~Word Prompt (Naughty)...Dear Santa...

Hello,

Welcome to Inkspirational Challenge #201, where our word prompt is Naughty! How fun is that! Remember, during this season, 'naughty' is often paired with 'nice' so...feel free to work with that combination as well!

I've used a sentiment from Picket Fence's Straight from the North Pole set implies 'naughty' may have happened over the course of the year! Too funny!

My wonderful teammates have designed delightfully 'naughty' cards; please visit and leave them some love, which I know will be deeply appreciated:

Marina, Sandie, Shauna, Pia, Marlena, Anila, Nonni

Looking forward to seeing you in the gallery!

Thank you for dropping by!

The 25 Days of Christmas Tags 2019~Bonus Day 26 (November 29, 2019): Featuring Hello Bluebird

Hello,

So happy that our Tags event hasn't 'quite' come to a close, although, after today...oh my stars! Tag withdrawal certain to happen!  Then again, I do have more tag ideas percolating, so perhaps I'll just carry on! We shall see!  For now...

Welcome to Bonus Day 26 of Tracey's 25 Days of Christmas Tags 2019

We welcome Hello Bluebird for our finale!

I'm completely smitten with the First Snow stamps/dies that I received; so much 'snow'...I mean, so...that I created not four, but six tags! And I still have one more bunny and penguin waiting in the wings for their turn on the stage!

The sentiments on the following four tags come from the Bold Holidays set:

The generosity of Hello Bluebird doesn't end here: I still have more goodies awaiting attention! Watch for them coming to my blog soon!

The 25 Days of Christmas Tags 2019~Day 25 (November 28, 2019): Featuring Honey Bee Stamps

Hello,

To all my friends in the USA:  Happy Thanksgiving! May your day be spent with family and friends, enjoying wonderful meals and celebrating all things for which you are grateful! May 'love' be at the top of the list!

Welcome to Day 25 of Tracey's 25 Days of Christmas Tags!  I can't believe how quickly this event has flown!

Joining us today as our guest and sponsor is Honey Bee Stamps

Honey Bee has wonderfully whimsical images, so when I saw the Oh, Christmas Bee set, well...he 'had' to join my collection! Two are sporting their usual 'bee' colours; two are really feeling the festive spirit (my bees, so I can do as I please *grin*)

Seriously cute, right?

The Santa Express set is filled with wonderful messages from Santa himself...and the font of the sentiments are positively swoon-inducing! I've paired them with the Scallop Square Gift Tag.  Love the pretty simplicity of these...I'm going to make more!

Those penguins, especially! ACK! LOVE!  I have lots more penguins/snowmen coloured; coming to cards soon!

Here are my trio; hope they make you smile as brightly as they made me while I was making them!

And yes, I do wanna build a snowman...and see Frozen 2!!

The 25 Days of Christmas Tags 2019~Day 22 (November 25, 2019): Featuring Birch Press Design

Hello,

Welcome to Day 22 of Tracey's 25 Days of Christmas Tags!  We're on the last few days of this fabulous event; amazing how quickly time has flown! On the plus side: still LOTS of tags to come in the next few days!

Joining us as our guest and sponsor is Birch Press Design. 

Birch Press Design shared the GORGEOUS Epiphany Plate Layer Set with us and WOW! Are these ever stunning! That - and they're so easy to cut/align! I.am.in.love!!

I focused on the two inner sections of the dies to create my tags, using white cardstock and red/green shimmer paper. Hard to see the sheen in photos, but in real life...so pretty! Even my husband thought so!

I paired the remaining two outer circles with a couple of leftover inner sections to create cards. I may go back and add the additional layers to the inside portion (the one on the right, specifically...needs more oomph) but for now, they make me smile.

My card features ultra sweet images from Newton's Nook Festive Fawns; they are just so darling! A birch background, a sprinkle of snowflakes and a pretty sentiment...done! Another card added to my collection which, at the moment, has 5X more tags than cards *grin*

That's it from me!

Looking forward to seeing how the photo inspires YOU!
