12 Tags of 2012 - September

Its the september fest - and time for Tim's 12 Tags of 2012, i love this challenge, it was on perfect timing as i just got my package of foil tape sheets… i thought to do something of my own after being inspired by the wonderful creation done by Tim!!!

Tape it Up

It a another week and new challenge over at Simon Says Stamp and Show, it's all about tape it up…. 

here is my card;

Read all about it

READ ALL ABOUT IT is the challenge of the week, has anyone checked out the simon says stamp "STAMPTEMBER" month…

in honor of STAMPTEMBER they are having a blog hop and a big challenge week… hope everyone enters… the theme is as i said

"Read all about it" we can interpret this anyway we like… 

the whole card is based on writing, from the old paper clipping collaged background to flowers that has been stamped with writing… it's all about reading!!!!

after collaging the background i embossed the card with tim holtz alterations, then i inked it up with distress, i left the middle part lighter and outer area darker, then i attached the wording stamped flowers, found a metal button to give it a chic look, finished off with inked letters "Wishes" 

here is a close up!!!
