And this completes my tag swap. This was the first tag swap I've joined, and it really threw me for some reason. Anyway, all twelve of them are finished and on their way to our hostess, Judy.

I think I'm addicted to these flowers! Sigh.

Tilda in Pink

2009-09-27T09:32:00.004-04:00

I really like the "pink" Christmas cards. Had to give it a try. I also decided if you would decorate the inside of your card, it would surely cut down on scrap, so also, gave that a try.

Recipe Swaps

2009-09-12T08:44:00.003-04:00

I love recipe swaps, as do several of the girls on the PC Board. Here are a couple I've done.

Happy Birthday To My Sister

2009-09-11T13:08:00.002-04:00

My sister's birthday is tomorrow. I used the Magnolia Giggle Image, since she's older than me by several years. I never let her forget it. The stack of books are also from Magnolia. All Paper is Bo Bunny, as are the brads in the flowers, with jewelry spacers. The sentiment says-
giggle-the sound of a happy from the Kelly Panacci set.

Tasia's 9/6 Challenge

2009-09-11T12:58:00.003-04:00

Tasia's challenge this week on PC Board was to use black and white, with a touch of color, and a sentiment. This is for a friend's 50th birthday, so I figured the 50 was sentiment enough.
The paper is Making Memories 5th Avenue (which I've had in my stash a long time)
The image is Tilda-Magnolia Love Connection
Colored with Primas and Mineral Spirits

Basic Grey Challenge

2009-09-09T19:14:00.001-04:00

I did this card a few weeks ago for a Basic Grey challenge. The image is Magnolia's Tilda with Tassels. She is one of my favorites.
