G& T and Numbers

 


I've got a lot to show you today. First up is my DT card for Allsorts challenge. Val has chosen the optional theme of Embossing We or Dry. Or you can use the Anything goes option.

I've heat embossed my stamps from an SU set (lemons) and Hunkydory (bottle and glass). My background is also a CC embossing tile folder which I shaded with blue inks. My apologies if you were expecting the sentiment to read "lemonade".

I'm entering this card into the Can You Handle the Pressure challenge - optional use a die cut. I have a background embossing folder and the frame is made with dies.





















I'm also here today with a little reminder of our current challenge at Tag-along (and ATCs). Pinky has chosen the optional theme of "Add a Number" or you can use Anything Goes.

Is it too soon for Christmas tags? I have had this number paper for many years and finally it spoke to me to use it! I cut a tag from another piece of the 12x12 paper that was with it. Then I used a die cut robin from CC and a die cut ribbon from a set of 2 on Amazon. It is actually red but the light has turned it pink. I then rubbed a little gilding wax around the edges and finished with some green ribbon.

My ATC uses a number background stamp from AALL & Create. The sentiment is from a Sizzix set and the butterfly is from a stencil that I think came with a magazine. I then just added a little Pink Flamingo DI here and there.

As always we have a super prize on offer, so hope to see you joining us.

I'm also entering my tag into The Outlawz Anything but a Card challenge.

Why make lemonade with them when it can be G&T, a lovely fresh feel with the blues in the background.

Very effective double tag and romantic feel to your ATC.
