My Besties Aussie Dt tag with flowers challenge

Hello and welcome :-)

Today I have a My Besties Dt post for you.

The current challenge is Tag with flowers. 

You can come and play along here. 

I have chosen Queen for the day as my image for this tag and I have used the MFT Pierced tags dies to cut the tag out.

All the flowers are from my stash, twine is from Whimsy Farm Twine. I have embossed the flowers on the tag using a Cuttlebug embossing folder and then inked over the top using Memento Ink.

Image was coloured using Copic Markers purchased from Craft-a-Lot.

Thanks for stopping by, 

Deni

Sweet Cheeks

I coloured this image a few nights ago but haven't had a chance to put it on a card yet, this morning I had a chance to sit down after cleaning all the house. Was awake earlier then I should have been on a Sunday, but oh well we have a card made :0)

The image I have used for my card is from Sherri Baldy of Scrapbook Stamp Society, the image is called Strawberry Sweet Cheeks and is available from their Scrapbook Stamp Society store in digi or rubber, the My Besties Store or from Etsy, which is where I purchased it from.

I am entering this card into the My Besties Aussie Challenge Blog the first Challenge over there is Anything goes, as long as you are using a Bestie image.

So here goes, this is my gorgeous card :-)
