POCKET LETTER SWAP

Hi Peeps,
I have popped in to show you a Pocket Letter I made a while back. I couldn't post about it before because it was for a Swap and I didn't want to spoil the surprise, but I know it has safely arrived now - so here it is :-)

FRONT

BACK

RONI from INK STAINS arranged it all for us and we swapped directly with our partners.  

I used lots of different rubber stamps and digital images and obviously, the theme I chose was ALICE.

I did put lots of trinkets and stuff in there as well, but I packaged them up separately in my parcel. :-)

The only thing I forgot was a little letter with stuff about me !!!! Hey-ho :-)

Thanks for dropping by. xxxxxxx

TRAVEL TAG

I made this travel tag for a couple of Challenges using backing paper from Paper Journeys  - "Travel by Land and Sea" paper collection.

The Stamp is from the Alice plate from DESTEMPELWINKEL. You can see her there waving a little hanky to the ship. I coloured her with Prismacolour pencils.
The edges of my tags were done with Cat's Eye Chalk inks.

I added a brad and a little anchor I found in the street, which I guilded with some bronzing paste.

Thanks for popping in and I hope you are having a fun crafting time too :-)

Challenges I am entering:

DeStempelwinkel Stampers Challenge #15 - Travel ***WINNER***

Tag Along Challenge #97 - Nautical

TAG IT ON AT DRAGON's DREAM

Hello Peeps,
Today I am going to play again at DRAGON's DREAM  TIO 110 ALICE - Wonderland or Looking Glass.
Now you know that Tags is my new 'thing' so I am still experimenting here :-) Maybe even ATCs next - who knows ???
Anyhoo - here is my entry...

I used a 6" x 3" tag as my base. The keyhole is from my friend Linda at Scrapcat Cards - I bought several die cuts from her shop 'cos she has a Cricut and I don't :-)  I distressed the edge a bit to make it stand out and added a tiny googly eye in the hole (don't ask me why - I kinda' thought it worked !!!) The playing card is from my stash. The mad hare is 'borrowed' from the Web. The Cat and Alice are both my new digis. I did them a couple of weeks ago but hadn't coloured them up to use yet.  I'm still fiddling with them a bit before I put them in my Shop. The images were decoupaged for 3D effect and stuck with silicone. My 'real' stamp is my butterfly - he's the caterpillar, but he's grown up and buggered off !! A little stamp I had for years.... just distressed a bit with green + brown. 

I think I may have got the angle of the playing card a bit wrong but I'm still practicing a bit here :-D !!!
