Inchies on a Tag

Happy Sunday folks and welcome to another TYI challenge! This week we're celebrating all things teeny with the theme of Inchies on a Tag. For this you could have just the one inchie to highlight a certain area or several inchies to create a whole picture ... our fabulous DT have created their tags using both these styles!

And now it's over to you, we hope you enjoy creating miniature works of art for your tags as much as we did and that you leave us a link to your creations!

One final piece of news, next Sunday sees the start of our monthly tag swap. Each DT member will be hosting a swap and I (Sam) will be your first hostess :) ... and I'll give you a clue, it's going to be a colour challenge ... quite simply because I love them lol. We all hope as many as possible of you talented crafters play along as it's just fabulous getting art in the mail rather than bills and junk ;)

Take care everyone and enjoy the rest of your weekend!

(Edited to add ~ apologies for the recent changes of scenery to our blog but since blogger added new formats we've been struggling to get the right look and layout!)

Love

Black, White and a touch of gold

Good morning taggers and Happy Sunday to you all. A very big Thank You to all those who played along with our Beach theme last week - hope you enjoyed it as much as we did! I also put numbers in a hat for my super-duper uber exciting giveaway of the Sun & Sand wax tart and the incredibly lucky lady who's number was drawn out of the hat (yogurt pot!) was drrrrrrrrrrumroll.................. MeggyMay!!

Well done Yvonne! If you want to drop me a line with your addy, I'll get it posted off to you!

We're looking a bit classy this week with our theme of Black & White with a touch of Gold tags. The wonderful tag team have put together a couple of samples to entice you to play along which we hope you'll love:

Now then, those ladies who recent played along with our June Tag Swap, we hope you were as delighted with the tags you received as we were with ours, and we have some fab news to share with you. One or two taggers have asked if we can do it again and we are excited to say that you were thinking along the same lines as us, and so therefore in August we are going to start hosting a monthly tag swap!! On the first Sunday of each month a new theme will be posted which will be the Swap Theme for the month. Each month a different teamie will host the swap and you will be asked to submit 3 tags for that theme by a certain date. Your 3 tags can be identical, or they can be as different as you like, as long as they're designed for the theme of the month. All tags must be hand-made and not computer-generated, and even if you're not a regular player but would like to take part in the swaps you are also very welcome!

So now it's over to you - we want to see your Black & White tags with a touch of Gold! It doesn't have to be classy - it's entirely up to you and how you interpret it!

Have a wonderful week and don't forget to leave your link so we can come and visit you!

By the Beach

Hurrah! It's Sunday again - time for a new theme and one which we are convinced you will love! This week we want you to get your deck chairs out and imagine yourselves By The Beach! Sigh.... And to get you in the mood, here are some fab samples from the wonderful tag team:






A bit of un-sponsored advertising here - if you really want to get into 'By the Beach' mood, treat yourself to Yankee Candles range of Sun & Sand smellies! I confess to being a complete addict and have their products all over my house and even in my car, so my mind is permanently picking through seaweed to collect driftwood and shells off the beach. It's divine! I have here a wax tart that I will send to one random player this week - they may be small but they are really powerful!

So don't forget to leave us your link - I hope lots of you play along because this is one of the team's favourite themes and we'd love to come and see your Beach themed tags!

Uncle Sam!

Happy Sunday once more Taggers! Well aren't we enjoying the most glorious weather? They say (the Brits, that is!) that there is no nicer place to be than at home in the UK when the weather is good and I cannot agree more (though a trip round the med on a yacht wouldn't be turned away if offered!!). But today we are celebrating all that is American as we focus on 4th July, and give Uncle Sam a shout. Our fab DT have prepared a tag or two to entice you to grab your Red, White and Blues and get tagging - hope you like them:

So now it's over to you - we'd love to see your Uncle Sam tags so don't forget to post your link so we can come and visit you!
