My Self Challenge

I was in a bad way.....

my creativity gone....nowhere to be found!

....and I was VERY SAD.

When I've encouraged others with this same malady

I emboldened them to find a challenge...

check out a sketch to inspire their creativity.

I tried these same tactics and NOTHING!

So what did I do.....

watch this little clip to find out!!

Here is what I came up with my

"floor 'TOVERS" hahahahaha

Now, this was my challenge to myself

use only what I picked up off the floor

or what was on my craft surface.

 In the end, I cheated and pulled out a stamp that
spoke to my heart!

All those tags....MMMC Mid Month

Welcome to the Mixed Media Monthly Challenge ~ MidMonth!

Our sponsor this month is...

When working on my first post for the challenge,

I made up a BUNCH OF TAGS.

If you missed it....here is my video on

how I made my tags using stamps fromTopFlight Stamps.

I truly had an AWESOME time working with
my Block Wallah ~ Exotic  and also
Katzelkrafts ~ Clouds stamps.

So.....what does one do with all these "tags"??!??!

You fancy 'em up....

a flower

some leaves
a bit of ticking
a length of wire ribbon
and a loopy bow.

But then what??

You've end up with a pile of tags. 

So I thought I'd try something different.

I decided to cover an artboard with some vintage paper,

added a bit of vintage curtian and
an larger piece of flute.....

to create a tag, worthy of hanging on your wall.

What is your SUPERPOWER?

Welcome to April's CHALLENGE

at The Mixed Media Monthly Challenge 

Our sponsor this month is Stampers Anonymous.

Well....I don't own any "super hero" stamps

so that isn't my superpower

(as my grandson hangs his head in shame)

But I think my superpower is creating with 'TOVERS

one of my FAVORITE things to do....

you see I was raised....

Waste NOT.....WANT not!

.....so I have a tendency to collect

"useable" pieces parts....'TOVERS.

Here is a quick video of me creating

this 'TOVER Mixed Media Tag.

Here are a few closeups.....
