" I'm Cured ! "

I did promise yesterday that my next post would be brighter and without acetate, well I got the first part right colour but just can't seem to escape the acetate. I have decided to let it run it's course and see where it takes me so anyone out there with an acetate aversion Look AWAY NOW !






That pesky ( I don't really mean it ) Zoe over at just for fun  has set us a new challenge this week which is to use a format you have never used before. In theory very simple especially for me who is a newcomer and hardly tried  many new formats, but oh no once again bloggers block ! It's taken me three whole days to come up with this my extended tag (don't even now if this is a format) .

You may also know that I don't like partaking in two challenges with the same entry but I happened to pass by as you do http://dragon-dragonsdream.blogspot.com/ who's theme is big bold and extended and I think my tag fits perfectly with Frankies challengr.

I used my silhouette to make my extended tag and butterfly and copied yes once again onto acetate some free photographs courtesy of Godelieve Tijskens http://stampingmathilda.blogspot.com/ check out her sight it's amazing.I stamped onto my tag using Crafty Individuals script stamp and placed the acetate on top. I frayed a couple of ribbons and attached them to my tag and there you have it .

Hope you like it.
