Follow your dreams Tag

Hello,

Yesterday I set myself to work on something using the stamp sets I designed for Peekaboo designs...

And I am loving the outcome...

The flower was created using the mandala stamps from the Mandala stamp set...
I hope you can see the awesome dimension of this flower :D

The chevron and swirly lines are from the Away We Go stamp set...

The woodgrain paper is from Papericious Wooden collection

Hello everyone,

When you don't have much time on hand and you really really want to do something crafty...Tags are the way out...atleast for me... :D
And Tag You're It challenge always has some awesome inspiration for tags...

I really like Donna's colourful tag with a hint of black...

For my tag, I used my mini-blending tool with different Distress Inks to create the circles....
Next I took a piece of black cardstock and cut out some flowers using a punch...I adhered this piece to the bottom of my tag...
I stamped the tag...vertically...
Now I wanted something for the upper corner of the tag...so I used the flowers I had punched out earlier here...

While I was at it, I made a variation of this tag...

I am sorry for the quality of photos. I have lent my camera to someone...so have to take photos from my smartphone(which takes very bad pictures) :(

Anyways, I would love to read your comments about my tag.
By the way...which tag design do you think looks better?

Gift Tags

Hello everyone,

First of all, MERRY CHRISTMAS to everyone...

When there is a time crunch, gift tags are one the best ways to pour out your creativity...
I made 2 gift tags yesterday...
It hardly took me 10 mins to make each tag...

As part of the Christmas fun, we had Secret Santa arranged by the HR department in my office.
We had to pick up a chit and get a gift for the colleague whose name was in the chit.

I was short on time...so I couldn't make a handmade gift...which I would have loved to do...
So I bought a gift...but I realized I had time to make a gift tag...

I made this gift tag to go with the gift...

These are the supplies I used:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After I made the first tag, I was tempted to make another one...just for fun :)..

And these the supplies I used for the second tag

The bird stamp set, the background stencil , the rose stencil and the distress inks are all new in my collection.
So I am always looking for a chance to use them...

What do you all think about the tags?
I would love to hear your comments and thoughts...

I am entering both the tags in the following challenges:

Christmas Tag

Hello everyone,

After making the winter-themed Christmas card...I was very tempted to make another one with Christmas colors...the red of the baubles...the green of the trees...the white of the snow...

So I went ahead and made this Christmas tag...
It is inspired from one of Jennifer McGuire's cards.

I used the below materials for this tag :

A new Resist technique

Hello crafters,

It is incredible how your color palette changes according to the change in season.
The weather has been cold lately and I am automatically inclined to use winter colors. :)

So I made this Clean and Simple Christmas tag...

I have been wanting to use resist techniques. But I don't have embossing powder or ink (yet ;) ).
Also I was not fully satisfied with effect from vaseline and crayon resist technique.

Drum-roll please...I bring to you.......a new resist technique
While I was playing and trying some things...I was surprised when I tried this...
All you need is a Correction pen (Whitener) and Distress

Start by making any design or shapes with the Correction Pen. Once it is dry, start adding colour to the area with a makeup wedge and any Distress ink.
You will notice that the ink doesnt colour the correction pen design/shape.

As I wanted to use winter colours. I made some stars from the correction pen.
