Feelin' Groovy with Tag Tuesday

Over at Tag Tuesday the theme this week is the Swinging Sixties.  When I think of the 60's acid rock, hippies, war protests and psychedelic drugs come to mind.  For my tag I tried to incorporate these by including Seattle icon, Jimi Hendrix, swirly bright colors and 'peace'.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your week.  We're counting down the days until school starts here.  :)

A little fun with Tag Tuesday

Sneaking in a little paper-y play time this morning.  I just finished my Tag Tuesday tag for this week where the theme is 'Windows, Gates, Doors & Portals'.  I knew an interactive element was in order.  I was thinking a flap to open in a window-esque fashion, but it evolved into a door.

Isn't that fun?  The 'roof' is embossed with a ticket embossing folder with the Admit One highlighted.  Seemed appropriate when I was looking for something to jazz up the tag top; one might have trouble juggling too many heartthrobs...

This elf needs to get back to work.  Wishing you all a safe and happy weekend.  Thanks for stopping by!

Seahorse Tag - Tag Tuesday

I recently joined the Tag Tuesday group.  The theme this week is Fish.

I started with a white scrap of cardstock and then sprayed with Dylusions ink sprays.  I added some texture by pressing water-misted bubble wrap against the background to remove some of the color and then followed that by stamping the main image.  Then I got out the handy dandy waterbrush and started removing and adding color (water to remove and Dylusions inks to add it back in).  Black sharpie and white Signo Uniball pens as well as a little charcoal pencil added some more interest.  To finish this guy off I stamped some water droplets (Designs by Ryn - love these!) and a beaded hanger.

Thanks for stopping by today!
