CrafTangles blog hop - Mixed media

Hi everyone, today starts another blog hop at CrafTangles and we're showcasing anything mixed media. CrafTangles has lots of mixed media essentials available for instance effect pastes like patina and rust but I choose moss effect for my project, a tag.

First I cut out a tag shape using heavy cardboard and cover it with a coat of gesso.
Then I added the moss effect paste until I was pleased with how it looked.

I've added curly moss, branches, pine cones, leaves and berries and a cute paper squirrel.

On the tag chord I attached a little tag with a good luck sentiment stamped on it.

CrafTangles Mixed media items used on this tag are available at:

For a chance to win a goodie bag from CrafTangles leave a comment below and on all hops.
You can find all 3 participants in the hop at:

Have fun and good luck in the draw!

Hugs, Henriette.

HoHoHo

When working 4 days a week, running a household, making cards and projects for DT's and guest DT's I barely have time to make a card to enter in some challenges. BUT I'm not complaining here!

Today I've made a clean and simple Christmas card.
The background paper is free downloadable wrapping paper from baba souk (there are more fun downloads available).

The stamp is a birdie brown stamp from mft stamps.

Christmas Wishes

Hello friends,

Another week has past, time does fly. Can you believe it's only 75 days until Christmas!
I've made another Christmas card for the tag you're it challenge.

This was the inspiration card from Kelly Szafron.

My inspiration was the gold and red colors and the polkadots.

The stamp on my card is mini tree stamp from pink petticoat.

I would like to enter this card in the following challenges:

tag youre it challenge: # 32

crafty friends challenge: 16

pde linky party: tags

simon says stamp: cas christmas

Thanks very much for stopping by.

Hugs Henriëtte.

Shore do love you

Hello and welcome,

 

I created this tropical scene in Photoshop using 2 digital stamp.

The palmtree is a digi from 2 Cute Ink. I removed the camel and colored the palmtree twice in Photoshop.

The flamingo is a digital stamp from pink petticoat. I also colored that digi in Photoshop and made two different versions (one has a darker color and no eyelashes).

I put the 4 digis together and made a gradient background, all in Photoshop.

Once I knew how to do all this it was great to make the image just as I had it in my mind.

I used the image on a tag card for the Tag you're it! challenge.

This is the inspiration card:

 

I only used the layout as my inspiration, not the autumn theme.

My card is quite the contrary with a tropical theme.

The sentiment I made in Word and I put a pearl shell bead on it.

I'm entering this card in these challenges:

Christmas Tag card

Goodmorning,

I'm very happy with a paperpad I bought yesterday called Stocking Fillers from First Edition Paper.

Love the sweet colors and patterns on this paper and of course I had to make a card with it.

I made a rather large tag (to use as a card) with a freebie digital stamp from Carina http://carinaspysselsida.blogspot.nl/p/freebie.html.

Colored the stamp using Photoshop.

and without the snoweffect ;-)

I think the card is super duper cute.

The september color challenge over at The Ribbon Girls blog is green and pink. 

I'm entering this tag card in that challenge.

Sweet 16 tag

Hello,

It has been awhile since my last post.
I just didn't have any inspiration, did not feel like making anything. I know we all have that feeling sometimes, but it still is frustrating not to create.

Today I saw a challenge over at cupcake Craft Challenge http://cupcakecraftchallenges.blogspot.nl/ with the theme Tag. I like making tags so I started creating.

This is the result, a sweet sixteen tag with lots of glitter.
Most of the materials used are from my own stock.
The little dress for example is from a store called the Action.

I'm entering this tag in the following challenges:
http://cupcakecraftchallenges.blogspot.nl/2012/06/cupcake-195-tag-youre-it.html

Hopefully the "mojo" stays ;)

Thanks for stopping by and until soon!

More christmas cards

Hello,

Sunday is here already. How the weeks fly! December is almost here. I'm looking forward to the holidays.

I would like to share with you two cards I made this week.
First is a bauble card. I found the idea on pinterest. Here is a link to a video tutorial http://www.creativityprompt.com/video-tutorial-dimensional-ornaments-card/
And here is how my card turned out.

The second card is a small taglike card I made using a free printable at http://www.giverslog.com/?p=10483.

I love the little houses on this stamp.

Well I'm off to make some new cards. Thanks for reading my blog.

Graffiti tags

Hey,

At a spoon full of sugar they have the following challenge: TAGS. http://aspoonfullofsugarchallenge.blogspot.com/2011/07/challenge-161-create-tag.html

I wanted to enter this challenge but make something different this time.
I decided to make boys tag with a graffiti theme.
These two tags were the result.

The backgrounds of the tags are graffiti pics I found on the internet. I altered them a bit. 

The skater boys are a font called "Mike Vallely".

I also used the fonts "zoefingerabc graffiti" and "Street Soul" for the hands and words.

The little buttons I bought at our local market.

I think they turned out quite different from my usual style. 

Thanks for reading my blog and untill next time.

Hugs xx
