~ Timeless Tags ~ The Craft's Meow


TCM_timelesstags3
*insert weeping sounds*
I have sad, heartbreaking news.
My brother, who got married last week, took the camera (the DSLR) with him.
And it's gone to stay permanently with him and his wife.
*cry*
*sniff*
*grouchy face*

Today's card (photo taken with point-and-shoot)  ...... is created with a beautiful stamp set by Nina Brackett for The Craft's Meow. Gorgeous, Timeless Tags. I used three of them on this card....

^^ observe sad lighting and coloration of photo ^^ 
*sniff again*

Oh how pretty. (the stamps not the photo)

Oh! and this stamp set coordinates with a Spellbinders die set!! so if you have a die set that looks like this, you HAVE to get yourself these stamps. They're lovely and super high quality too.

All right..... so again, like yesterday, you get a chance to win this stamp set if you leave a comment here, and your chances increase with every comment posted on the other team-mates blogs. Ready? set. go.

Thanks for visiting!

P.S. Would you please ignore the fact that yesterday's and today's cards both consist of the same colors. I don't know why. Thank you, much appreciated.

    Vio, you are so funny! lol Your point and shoot is doing a fine job, although I know what you mean about a DSLR... I love mine. I think you should start saving up and soon you'll have one of your very own!
    Your card is pure loveliness, just like everything you make. ;) I adore it, and I adore you! Thank you for blessing TCM with your time and talent!
    Love and hugs,

    P.S. Same colors? Who cares? They are perfect, that's why they are worth a repeat performance!

    I do see the difference now that you have pointed it out, but it still looks good. You can sell lots of stuff in your Etsy and buy your very own camera silly girl. :)
    I love how you used all 3 tags and the leaves from the Fushia set. Stunning!

    Seeing as you have used my favourite color combination, you are most definitely forgiven for using them twice. This card is utterly gorgeous.

    The photos aren't so bad: my husband's camera won't seem to focus on all the parts of the card at the same time ;-( But, to get to the real subject, your cards are very beautiful!!! I love the creative way you used the tags, the colors, the lace, and the papers. Thanks for sharing!!

    I think your pics came out fine, compared to the pics I try to take of cards with my DH's camera that won't even focus on all the parts of the card at the same time!! And your card is just gorgeous: I love the colors, and using all three tags on it is brilliant!!

    Sorry about the camera, although you're doing fine without it!
    No worries about repeating a color scheme - love it! If it works, use it!
    I have a dumb question though - what stamp did you use to make the leaves here? They're beautiful - so hard to find nice leaves...
