I have chosen to make a tag this week, but making a tag isn't always an easy way out of a craft assignment. A lot of thought still goes into your color palette and creating an interesting background! You still need to coordinate an image with a sentiment, and there are even other elements to consider--like ribbon or twine and to embellish or not to embellish!
I chose one of Stampotique Originals' text stamps, "One second, One minute, One hour, One day," to remind me to use the time I have been given more wisely.
Here's my contribution to the challenge this week:
Additionally, I have used the following Stampotique Originals' stamps:
Head (main image)
Design Cube (for background)
I hope you will join me in creating something for the Stampotique Designers' Challenge each week. The use of Stampotique Originals' stamps is not required. You can use any rubber or clear stamps (no digital stamps) that you have to participate and gain a chance to win one of two $30 gift certificates for your choice of Stampotique products. Details for submissions are here.

Nice thought. Maybe that should be my New Year resolution. I should use every second, every minute, every hour of every day working to make myself a better person and thus the world a better place. Happy New Year.

ReplyDelete'Head' being philosophical with this sentiment....very apt. Fantastic x
ReplyDeleteThis is so fabulous.
ReplyDeleteI love the background you have created, the color palette, and the stamps you used.

The time words is one of the first Stampotique stamps that I got!
I just love the colors on your tag - reminds me of spring. Sigh...
ReplyDeleteOh Kay, how right you are. Use time more wisely. See, day three of the new year and I haven't yet wished you a Happy New Year. So, Happy New Year to you and yours. May 2014 bring you all good things. Love the tag. Great background and sentiment. Head is so cute.
