Tags, lovely tags :)

The tags that i have been busy with these last days:

this orange tage i used shimmer mist from joannasheen.com and the orange roses are bought from the 9000 year old city Jericho in Palestine, that is pretty cool right :) the leavs, lace ribbon and brad are all parts from swaps and raks. In this tag i used my french script stamp with vesamark and used pearls inbrown and stapmed roses on the corners with staz on, i sprayed it afterwards. The edges are edged with a sissor and distressed with vintage photo distress ink. The ticket i but distress stickles on the edges.

The greentag i used the glimmer mist sandra sent me. o took some drops and put some water in to make it a lighter shade and colored the tag with a brush. Then i used distress ink in peeled green color of for the edges and then distressed with vintage photo. I also useed the prima script stamp on this one but accedently used it up side down, luckely it does not show clearly my misstake :) i colored the lace with the glimmer mist with the olive and vanila breeze colors and used a tim holtz tag. Put some bling on and some prima flowers. A garment pin and charms aswell and finally ribbons, all by Sandra!

The pink tag i used tattered rose and mild lavender inks and edged it with utee mixed with glitter. Stamped love with red ink pad. Put some ribbons by Claudia and brad. The old lace a love and a handmade rose by Sandra.

ok, next big thing i have started to learn creating is tags, it is so much fun!!! At first when i saw all swaps with tags i thought naa nothing for me, i like to have big space where i can put photos and journaling but after seeing arlenes tags and also the ones Jade made i have simply fallen for this technique aswell, espcially after recieving many tags in my packages lately,s o thank u ladies for sending tags to me, i had only 2 before now i have bunch of them. And of course i had to make some tags after watching arlenes tags so these three are influeced by her tags and the one jade did for her valentines tag swap. Btw the one Arlene made for Rina is absolutely gorgeous, i simply love the colours she used. I have found that i lately purchase supplies after what she has been using in her projects. So tahnk u ladies for ur tutorials, it has been a great help while doing my tags :)

Mini album "Fun Times"

Mini album "Fun Times" This mini was fun to make because at first i did not have any special idea in mind when doing the cover. I did it long time ago when i first got my order from simonssaysstamp and i wanted to try out the prodcuts. I used glimmer mist and distress embossing powder and embossing powder in bronze. it was fun to make it. Then, a couple of days ago i was sorting my papers and found a bunch of left-overs and decided to use it together with the old cover that i made. This is the result of that mini...

The glimmer misted cover.

Page 1, just used some brown paper for background and put a piece of a textbook-side over, ripped it and distressed it. Then embossed with green color a heidi swap damask stamp. The butterfly is cute out with a template and fastened with brad and spinner, abd some pearls in green.

Page 2, I made like a pocket behind the little paper book that canbe opened and closed with the ribbon. when u open there is space for journal and photo, and i stamped right side with TH stamp, think it is the time stamp. a journaling spot on the tag.

Page 3, kept it simple, with just a journaling spot that i cut out. and distressed the lines with distress stickles in mahogny. Made some pearls with liquid pearls.

Page 4, i made a corner pocket but put the opening part upwards, and used some swilrs and copper stickles on them to embelish it. Then i tuck 3 tags in the pocket that are fastened together with a clip. I stamped the big one with a journaling spot.

Page 5, put some ribbon on the sides and flowers. The big flower is bronze embossed and the smaller one with stickels on the edges. I put them together with a pearl brad. The flower holds down the TH tag but it is also stuck to the ribbon with the fastener. A photo can be stuck behind the flower and ribbon.

Page 6, I made a dubble pocket with tags, on one tag there is journaling spot that i stamped on. Put some lace on the top of the tags. Also put a small tag on the pocket cover. Distressed the edges.

Page 7 kept it simple with a tag that can be stucked behind the journaling spot. Put some red pearls on and distressed it.

Page 8, a corner pocket embelished with swirls. A tag which says "It is the things in common that make relationships enjoyable, but it is the little differences that makes them interesting"

Put some damask stamp on the backside of the tag.

Page 9, made a pocket by putting a smaller paper on top of the one that covers the whole page. adhered only 3 sides. Put a big tag there. I also cut along the the flower shape of the smaller paper and tucked three smaller tags there.

Last page is corrugated paper on both sides, i distressed the edges with bronze empossing utee on one side and with mahogny distress stickes on the odther side. I glimmer misted them and but a twine oarund it an dput two tags there. fastened it and put a small tag with a charm.

6 X 6 PRIMA first blush collection mini album

This is my prima first blush mini album and i just love how it turned out. I was not sure how to use the papers together but it is inspired by hovindw at youtube . I just love how her carte blanche turned out. This paper collection by prima is absolutely gorgeous. so vintagy and that is my favorite theme :). First page has a crochet circle which i glimmermisted with vanilla breeze. and used prima flowers which are also glimmer misted and has a prima sequin center in gold. Then i used 2 tags and adhered themto patterned paper for more dimension. I like the colour contrast as it tells what colours will be used in the mini, green and earth colours, my favorites. I also used a charm angel and fastened it with fiber.

For the first page i made a pocket from polkadot paper from the wild asparagus 4 collection by MME. I used throughout the mini papers from that collection too. I also cut out a clock from papper by graphic 45, and put prima green bling in the center. And used tag ( happy days). Second page i used a diecut and used tags made out of both collections. and the flower on the tage i did my self by using papers from both collections and a prima bling. On the back of one of the tag i used a prima journaling stamp. And the middle one i used old lace at the top.

A prima flower and bling.

Next page a pocket with bling, ribbon and charm. The tag can be opened.
