Just Us Girls #419 - Trend Week


For my card today, I made a tag.  I am also entering this into the Happy Little Stampers November Watercolor; anything goes, and for the twist, a tag.

I used CUTplorations Tag #1 Nesting Tags for my base, and recently, I purchased the Cottage Cuts Nested Stitched Eyelet Oval dies, and used those to cut out my water colored panel. I used MFT Die- namics Stitched Ovals to make a glittered background panel.

Then, using Inkadinkado Evergreen Holiday set, I stamped the image in black - for the silhouette stamping, and Hero Arts Holiday Sayings [discontinued] for the sentiment.

Because I also want to enter this into the November, CAS Mix Up; stamping, glitter, + 1 [I used the water colored panel, along with some water spritzing], I adhered my tag onto a card.  Lots of white space now.  The plus?  I get a card gift to give! Win-win.


Well, that was fun!  How do you see silhouette stamping?  Come on over to Just Us Girls #419, and show us your stuff!  Meanwhile, thanks challenges - I had fun!


Thanks for stopping by~
