Cupcakes Oh my....!

Happy Sunday Taggers, and welcome to the final week of our Tag Swap. Our theme this week is entitled Cupcakes, Oh my...! Isn't it funny how themes seem to all come together at the same time in blogland! When we drew up our list of themes and dates back in March this year, no way could we have forseen the many other Cupcake challenges that would be open this week also. I have noticed several Cupcake challenges on my travels this week which is fantastic, because now we know that there are just HUNDREDS of Cupcake images out there just longing to be used again! So hopefully, those of you with cupcake stamps/images/diecuts, etc. will want to get those out again and join in with the last of our June themes and hopefully swap them!

So, whether you've done one theme or all four themes in June, and are ready to swap your tags, Please email Janet for details of where to send your tags to. For those who are taking part, please could you have your tags posted off to Janet by Friday 9th July at the very latest so that by this date, she will have all the tags that are to be swapped together, ready to be re-distributed to everyone who played along with us. Please would you also write your name on the back of the tag so that we know who's tags we've received back.

So, without further ado, here are some samples of Cupcake tags made by our wonderful team:

Make your own Ribbon Embellishment

Happy Sunday again folks! Nice easy one for you this week. We've seen some wonderful tags over the previous weeks and we're really hoping that all those June one's will be going into the tag swap because they are stunning!!! It's still not too late to join in though so if you're only just reading this for the first time and wish you'd found us sooner, don't be put off - you can either catch up at your own pace, or just jump in now and do the next couple of themes. How ever many tags you send in, that's how many you will receive in return. So get those scrap boxes out and get tagging!!

Our theme this week is to Make Your Own Ribbon Embellishment! What could be simpler? Our lovely creative team here have been making samples to hopefully inspire and entice you to join in and here are their fabulous efforts:

Just one more theme to go now and we'll be ready to swap - we are really excited about this and hope you're as keen as us!

On a personal note I (Anne) would like to apologise for not being able to get around and comment on everyone's tags from last week. It's nothing personal I assure you - I seem to have picked up a blog bug that isn't allowing me to comment and I can't get to the bottom of it! It keeps asking for my password and then tells me it's invalid (which I know isn't true!) and until I've managed to find out what's happened, I may miss some people out which is really sad because I have been sat at my pooter squealing with delight over your tags! I will keep at it until I've cracked it though ;o)

In the meantime, hope you all have a wonderful week ahead and we can't wait to see your ribbon embellishments! Happy tagging!

Needle and Thread

Hi Taggers and welcome to the first of our June themes! Today is the start of the June Tag Swap and our first theme to kick us off is Needle & Thread. As always, you can interpret this in any way you like just so long as your submission is on a tag.

If you don't already know about it, we are offering you the opportuity to receive some wonderful surprise tags at the end of June, by way of a swap. When all 4 themes are completed, you just need to send your 4 tags (or however many you've made) to our lovely teamie, Janet, (click the link to email her for her addy to send tags to) along with a stamped addressed A5 envelope to receive your randomly selected tags from other players and DT back. All of the team here will be playing and we would love it if loads more joined in because the more people that play along, the bigger more random the selection will be, so please grab our button for your blog and tell others about it!

OK then, here are the samples from our wonderful team to start you off:
