So this weeks recipe, which has to be on a tag and use at least one real stamp is: Dress to impress.
The three ingredients are : a dress or dress form, embossed impression and some bling.

this is what I made:

 

the background or the tag are distress inks, red, yellow, green and then I used some background stamps, there is an heat embossed dressform in the background and the dies are the Tim Holtz dressform and the bird cage. there is also bling so I got everything covered for this one.....

Welcome to day 3 of the 31 days of halloweeen (check out about the prizes and rules here),  this will also be my post for the new challenge for Dragons Dream Tag it on


This fortnight it is the talented Helen's turn to dream up a recipe and this is what she came up with: - “Leaf me alone" - metal, leaves and orange and ofcourse it has to be a tag and you have to use at least 1 real stamp.

Thank you all for entering all the awsome tags in last challenge, loved  them all and had lots of fun seeing all your blogs. hope you will join again, can't wait to see what you create

For my tag I used chipboard. painted it with gesso first and then acrilyc paint (orange, yellow and green) let dry a bit and whipe using baby whipe to mix colours. (don't make mud and don't whipe it all off). The stamps I used are from de Stempelwinkel.
the leafs are punched (cardstock covered with metal tape and add some black paint)

I think the skellie at the table tells his skellie wife to leave him alone LOL

Thanks everyone for leaving me all the nice comments on day 1 and 2 of the 31 days. Hope you will visit all the wicked blogs again today (blog roll on side bar) and leave them some nice comments also, see you tomorrow for day 4

Dragons Dream TIO # 121 "Following Alice"

This fortnight it's May's turn to dream up a recipe for Dragons Dream TIO, she chose " following Alice" the ingredients are:
Alice, the rabbit and a situation the only other rules are: it has to be a tag and there has to be at least 1 real stamp on it. .
 I loved  making this recipe because I'm a big Alice fan and it gave me a chance to use this stamp I bought a while ago, it's Alice but a bit  different.......
Then I had to use a rabbit and create a situation............................................That's where my dark side took over. I think Alice wouldn't have gone into the rabbit hole if she knew wonderland was this scary.
I gave Alice a nice background and gave the tag a bit of a dark look using distress ink. The mean looking shrooms are Smeared Inks. And  look what they did to the poor rabbit...... only his watch and  skull (also Smeared Ink) are what's left of him................Wonder what the shrooms will do to poor little Alice.

Hope you like the tag and join us in the challenge.
