Make It Monday #258 & Colour Throwdown #407

Well, we have been enjoying spending time at the Morden Corn & Apple Festival.
We ran into some of the kids' friends and I captured these fun pictures:





I also have a tag to share that I made using


I decided to make some tags for Sage's teachers to accompany the butter crunch
that I'll be sending along with her on her first day of school.
I went through my collection of Cover Plates and decided to use my Butterfly Cover Plate
along with my Tag Sale 7 die.


I diecut my tag from Hawaiian Shores cardstock and  applied some Tropical
Teal ink with my blending tool to the bottom half of it.
I diecut the butterflies from white cardstock and applied some bright buttercup
and green parakeet ink using my Clarity Stencil brushes.


I stamped my sentiment (from Tropics) in versamark onto a strip of vellum
and heat embossed it in white.

Thanks for looking!

  5. The Corn & Apple Festival looks like some good old fashioned fun. Bet the kids (and you) had a great time. Your tag is so pretty. Those colors are just gorgeous - there's something so right about blue and yellow together. This certainly pair nicely with the butter crunch...might have to try that next time the kiddies are here. Have a great weekend. Bev
