[6.27.2014] Tag I’m It!

Tag I’m It!

I’m full of fun news today!!!  There is a brand new challenge in town and I’m thrilled to be joining in the fun.  Jackie Rockwell has started a brilliant challenge all about TAGS called Tag You’re It!  I thought for sure I used tags on almost everything.  As I looked through my past projects, I was surprised to be proven wrong.  How does that happen?  So, I’m super excited to up my tag stash with this new design team.

So, let’s get this party started and kick off our FIRST challenge with Tag You’re It!  To play along, just create a TAG or TAG containing project based on the inspiration tag below.  Our first challenge will be a “mini” one and last for 5 days, ending on July 4th.  We’ll begin our regularly scheduled two week challenges on that day too with a brand new inspiration from a special guest designer.

Inspiration:  Karin’s card is too adorable.  Don’t you just love the little scene she created with that happy crab?  As I studied her tag, I kept coming back to that gradient background.  I decided that would be the inspiration for my card.

I was in a bit of a rush to get this card done and decided on pattern paper to provide the gradient background for my tag.  THESE coordinating dies and stamps just arrived from Simon Says Stamp and were conveniently located on my desk.  I was so excited to be able to use them right away for this challenge.

The hubs and I just spent a week in Colorado Springs with some friends from Miami, FL.  One of our friends is a biker (the road biking kind, not the hog kind) and we saw a lot of bike riders racing along the roads.  His daughters would cheer them on from the car (I guess that is the thing to do).  Heehee, it made me giggle and cheer them on too.  So, this card is for his birthday and that little bike side banner is in his honor.

Now it is YOUR turn… Tag You’re It!  Visit the Challenge blog to see all the amazing ladies on this team.  I can’t believe I get to  create along side them!!!  You’ll definitely want to see all the inspiration projects and how to play along.  It is all about fun and tags!!!
