Yup that is our Challenge this week at Friends of Speedy TV.  So whip up a tag or two and stop on over and share them with us. I have made a couple using different images.Both are using the New September Releases. The first on is using the new Chrysanthemum Set. I stamped colored and cut out the two for the tag. The striped mat is cut with a Spellbinder oval. The tag top was cut using a Spellbinder then embossed with the lattice folder .folder.The sentiment is cut with a Marvy punch and the butterfly is a Cherry Lynn die.Some dyed ribbon tops it off.

The second tag is using a image from the Nutcracker Set. The star is cut with a Spellbinder and the snowflakes are MS and the lacey one I do not know the maker. The tag top was cut with a Spellbinder and the creme embossed with the dotted swiss folder. Although it doesnt really show the snowflakes and parts of the nutcracker are glittered up with Stickles.

 My teamies have a variety of very cool tags so stop by and visit them for some inspiration!!

Tutorial Time Speedy TV

This week our tutorial is brought to us by Jane. It is to make weathered wood. 

This is a nice technique, stop over and visit the tutorial HERE. After making my

 weathered wood background I added a embossed brown to

 mat my image on. I used a image from the Big Boy Toys Set colored 

and cut out with a Spellbinder Scalloped Square. A scalloped circular

 punch was used for the sentiment. Pretty simple, just didnt have

 any man embellies to go with it lol.  

Come join Team B this week....

Tuesday Throwdown Challenge is Butterflies & Bows.

 Our sponsor is Dee's Digis. She has a great selection you will want to visit her store.

I have used three of the images from the Spring Blocks  To be able to use three of the 

blocks I made a long narrow card. I used a Spellbinder border die for the top of the card

 and embossed the base before attaching the top layer. After colorings, \
adding background sky and matting they 

were added to the next layer and a ribbon added. We all have lots of great ideas for

 the image so stop over and join in this week.

Ready for a new week??

Hope you all had a great weekend. Today our challenge at FOSTV is a round card.
I love round cards, a circular shape is always captivating to me!

  I started with a doily and stitched a couple layers together. The Spellbinder scalloped

 circle was embossed and added. The floral images are from the Coneflower Set colored

 and cut out. The sentiment is also from the same set and cut out with a Spellbinder

 fancy label and then bradded to another one. A Cherry Lynn butterfly 

finishes it off. Stop over and look at my teamies beautiful cards!
