Thanksgiving Tags

Just a quick post to enter CAS-ual Fridays CFC #28 one more time with some tags I made to go with my Thanksgiving baskets.  I used my brand new-to-me Leaf Prints stamp and die set I bought last week on the PTI Forum.  The sentiment is from Tag-It's and dies are PTI Tag Sale 1 & 3.  The ribbon is from my stash, and this is the first time I've made anything that would match it.

Can We Eat the Cake Now?

 

I am participating in my first Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge.  My dear friend Cathy from the Empty Nest Crafter has been encouraging me for a while.  She has even gone so far as to order stamps for me, and to send me a huge envelope full of her stamped images for me to use.  So, I am taking the plunge, and here it is--I made a tag for my daughter's upcoming 14th birthday.  I used images from Eat Cake for this tag.  I just love that sentiment, which sounds exactly like something my daughter would say.  

The paper is PTI Bitty Box.  The tag is cut with the PTI Tag Sale #4 die.  I topped the tag off with one of my homemade buttons made out of polymer clay.

HELLO EVERYONE IN BLOGLAND!!

I have been meaning to start a blog for some time.  I have gotten so much inspiration from reading others' blogs, that I am finally jumping on the bandwagon.  I hope that you will pass along any comments and suggestions you have for improving my blog, as well as my cards.

Without further ado, here goes:

My first ever blog posted card is .....another card I made casing Laurie Willison from Soapbox Creations.  I had been meaning to make this card for my sister's anniversary.  I figured I'd make it this week and play along some more with the Papertrey Paper Dolls.  Here is Laurie's card.

And, here is my card:
