Hi! I hope everyone had a great weekend. We did a little yard work - raking leaves, and putting away anything that can't withstand the cold weather that's coming. Sunday was our lazy day watching DVD's and eating fast food. This week will be a busy one with the Thanksgiving holiday so any crafting I plan on getting done will have to be done soon. I got all my grocery shopping done today - tomorrow is house cleaning. I won't have my daughter around to help - all her friends are coming home from school for the holiday and I expect she'll want to spend her free time with them.
I'm getting an early start on the Waltzingmouse sketch challenge this week. I told you sometimes sketches talk to me. This one said "TAG". I love Christmas because it's a great excuse to put extra bling and sparkle on almost anything. I don't work too much with glitter and working on this tag I figured out why........ IT'S MESSY!!!!!! I have glitter everywhere!!! Even on my ink pad!! It took me a while to figure out why my stamped images have spots missing. What a mess! Maybe if I do it more often I'll figure out a better way to do it. For now the glitter is back on the shelf!
Have a great day!
Jeanne

Gorgeous tag, love the purpley tones and the sparkle, very pretty!
How do you come up with these color schemes? They are so original and fantastic, Jeanne! I am embracing my glittery self lately, too! I only used to use the occasional Stickles, and now I am addicted to the sparkly stuff it seems. Your ribbon is amazing, and I love the detailed sparkling die cuts that perfectly coordinate. Oh...and your coloring, WOW! And my motto this Christmas..."This card should jingle" hee!
This is so bright and pretty and I love those spellbinders you used for this one. That Santa image is my very favorite from Around Christmastime and that gorgeous bow really makes your tag take on a very glamorous look.
Gorgeous project Jeanne! Love the nontraditional color combo! Thanks for joining along with the WMSC :)
