Tag 7-1 "Canada!"


Hello my friends!
July 1st is Canada Day.  So of course I had to make a tag for the day!
Some time ago I got a die at Michaels when they were selling off the Spellbinders dies (which, sadly, they no longer carry).  I had never seen the die before and I had to get it.


Just for the record, I don't believe I say "eh"! lol

I did not ise the word from this die set, I used another


This was actually a  relatively quick tag.  To be honest, I had been working on another tag for the day, that didn't really turn out (not everything works, but we must carry on!) If I can rescue it, at some point, I will share.

I hope all my Canadian friends had a wonderful and safe holiday, and I hope everyone has an awesome and artful day!  Thanks for stopping by

New Challenge! #MixedMediaMorsels


Well, I have joined another group on FB.  This is definitely the year for new things!  I had never done any challenges or joined any on-line groups or ever done a blog before the beginning of this year.  Reaching out of my comfort zone.  All good!
This group is called Mixed Media Morsels hosted by Cat Hand.  Once a week, she does a video showing a mixed media technique for us to try.  I actually joined about a month ago, or so, but have had a lot going on and hadn't had a chance to do anything yet.  I am very delinquent with my tags as well!  We are supposed to be keeping a little art journal with  all our morsels in it, but I am going to combine my challenges, so I will be turning my morsels into tags.
This is my first mixed media morsel, but it is actually MMM 13 (I believe) and I think they are up to MMM 15.  But I will do a few at a time and eventually catch up.  I may not do all the ones that I have missed, and go forward from here, but I will do some of them.  It's all fun!

Another Month Finished #onelittletag


Another month of tags finished.  I can't believe that I have kept up!  I haven't done a tag every single day (although most days!)  and I often play catch up, but it is definitely keeping me in the creative frame of mind.  That is the whole point.  I have gotten things out from the back of the shelves and given them a little love, have done some experimenting and all-in-all, have been having a good time.
My own personal goal was to do at least seven cards or tags a week.  Not necessarily one a day, and not even necessarily seven different ones, just seven.  This challenge ( One Little Tag Craft Challenge on FB, for anyone new to my blog) has really kept me on track.  Actually, including the bonus tags and the duplicates, I have created 69 tags so far this year!  Wow!
So I would like to thank those of you who have been following along, and invite those of you who have recently viewed my blog to join me on my little tag journey of creativity.  AND my journey into blogging, something I have never done before (being as technically challenged as I am, lol)
Thank you and hope to see you here again soon!  If you like what I have been doing, please share! And if you enjoy making tags or looking at tags, you should check out and join One Little Tag Craft Challenge on FB hosted by Jenny Barnett Rohrs of CraftTestDummies.  It is a great group of talented and supportive and super nice people, and you are welcome to join at any time through the year.  I am enjoying it so much!
