TIO - Texturize it

Tag it On's theme is texturize it. This is my entry.

Try as I may I can't get the camera distortion to leave. This tag was made on glossy cardstock, on which I stamped some of Stampin' Up stamps (Simple Friendships) in StaZon. I did a Cuttlebug folder embossing and colored with Distress Inks. The orange "button" is a 5-ply cardstock button coated with Crystal Effects. The technique for the button can be found on the Splitcoast Stampers website. Also, I used a lot of heat embossing.

Tag Tuesday - The Deep

This is my tag for Tag Tuesday where the theme is "The Deep" as in the ocean. The stamp is by the Embossing Arts Co. I colored it with Prismacolor pencils.

Art Cards - Layered

I am making some bookmarks/tags to go to Jan to deliver as she visits shelters for women and children in the eastern USA. This particular one does not scan well, but it is really pretty in person. I am entering it in the Art Cards challenge, where the theme is layering stamped images and colors.

Lady in Red - Rainbow Lady's Challenge

Lady in Red is the theme for Rainbow Lady's Challenge this week. My images here all come from Dezinaworld.

Tag it On - Purple

For Tag it On our challenge is to use purple. A quick look through my blogs will reveal that I like purple and use it a lot. Here is my tag with various shades of purple.

Tag Tuesday - Blue and Green

Here is my entry for Tag Tuesday where the theme is blue and green and where we must use a real stamp*. My background paper is actually blue and green so that was a cinch. I took some pale green card stock Laura gave me and stamped the butterfly on it. The flowers are from a decorative paper.

*Just was reminded that Tag Tuesday does not require a stamp. It is another tag challenge called Tag it On that requires a real stamp.

Crazy Amigo Challenge - Mother's Day

I made this digital art just for the fun of it and then I saw that the challenge for Crazy Amigo is Mother's Day. This is not my mother or my grandmother, but she was an ancestor. I'm not sure which one. So I think it works for this challenge.

I used two beautiful pictures of the sky as my background. The photos were made by equine photographer Lorie Hull Elverd of Kentucky, who has graciously allowed me the use of some of her photos.

TMTA - Fragrance

I chose a background from Dezinaworld and a couple of ads from   Dover Publications to make this digital ATC. The background ad is for Hoyt's German Cologne. The girls are advertising Hoyt's German Cologne and Rubifoam for the teeth (whatever that was).

This is my entry for Think Monday Think ATCs - fragrance.

Also entering this in June's challenge to use Dezinaworld images.
