can you spot the stripes!!!

hi there,
well i have been playing with my dylusions sprays and these bright colours are certainly enough to brighten any day..and yes it is a tag..again..but i promise the next one won't be...so here it is:

The challenge this month at The Artistic Stamper is spots and stripes..so I have tried to add these can you spot them?!!! I started with a tag coloured with dylusions sprays, these are yummy colours and i am embracing this newly bright and colourful side...when dry i used Dyans fab faux bleach technique,stencils,stamps from Wendy Vecchi, The Artistic Stamper and Dylusions to create the background.I added some detail with my white pen and a rose made from the tattered floral movers and shapers die.

Finally i added imagine from a sheets of stamps for journalling from The Artistic Stamper and some ideaology..ooh and some ribbon coloured with dylusions spray...

It is very girly colours, but i am chuffed with the results..although i did scare myself a bit with the PINK ribbon!!!!

hey there,
well here I am again, with yes another tag!!I have been having another play with these fab new house stamps from The Artistic Stamper..and had a look through some of my inspiration tags from creative chemistry 101..the great Tim online course, which is still available. and so, ramblings over here is the result:

I started by using archival resist technique to create a  background and some background stamps from Tim's set.... and some of the houses and sentiment from The Artistic Stamper.I decided to use a little wooden house (not sure where from sorry!) to make a keyring..so i stamped with a house from the set using black archival and when dry coloured using distress markers.

The sentiment was stamped onto card and coloured with DI and I used rusty hinge DI to colour the ribbon.

I added some little keys form stash and there you have it! let me know what you think?

I am entering this for the following competitions:
