Hi there blog friends ~
A really quick post from me to share a few cards I created for challenges. When I saw this adorable tag by Tracey McNeely, I knew I had to play along in this week's challenge at Tag You're It...here is her tag:
Tracey's elephant just slays me! I have 2 elephant stamps, both of which are too big for a tag, so I went with a different animal...man's best friend(s):
So, I grabbed my Mama Elephant pups, and created sort of a boy and girl scene with a love theme. I did a soft blue watercolor wash for the background, and used my Copic markers to color the pups. The hearts were die cut with silver glitter paper, and the sentiment was embossed with clear EP to make it pop...and that was it!
*****
My 2nd card is for the current Simon Says Stamp Flickr Challenge - Wonderful One Layer Creations:
The balloons were created with the Balloon & Patterns Stencil and HA Shadow inks, and the sentiment is from the Sending/Wishing stamp set. The stars were stamped with silver ink, and dabbed with Wink of Stella for a little sparkle...done and dusted!
Thanks to Loll, I would like to enter this card for the current challenge at Time Out. Their theme is 'Birthday with an optional technique twist of sponging'.

Oh my gosh, Barb ... that tag is SO ADORABLE! Love the watercoloured background and your sweet pups just make me smile.
Love your second card with the softly sponged balloons --- so pretty. You should add them to Time Out where they are looking for birthday cards with an option of sponging. xx
those sponged softly colored balloons are wonderful - and those little pups are the cutest!
Barb, LOVE your tag - the pups are adorable! Your balloons are just fabulous, I can almost see the "sheen" of them :-)
Oh Barb, what a sweet tag. Those two critters looks so sweet together. Your Birthday card is fabulous, you've really captured the semi translucence of a blown up balloon.
Cutest tag ever Barb, I really do need to get out some ME critters and colour! Thanks for the inspiration!
Oh, I need that ME set. Why did you make such an adorable tag???Too stinkin cute for words. And, your sponged stencil balloons are a fantastic way to wish a special someone a happy birthday. Thanks so much for playing along at Time Out.
What a cute scene you created on the tag! Adorable! And the balloons on the card look so three dimensional! Amazing sponging and highlighting, Barb! Have a great day!

Thanks for visiting my blog and for your kind comment. Your tag is so adorable. Those little pups are so cute, and you've colored them beautifully. The glitter hearts are the perfect embellishment! The balloon card is so wonderful as well. You have such a knack for coloring and that little touch of gel pen really accents the images so well. Love the stars too.
Bar both of your cards had me say aww... Love the sweet tag with the puppies and cute sentiment! You stenciling on the SSS card is fabulous, you must have a light tough--so soft!

Such cute little pups, Barb ... those tiny shimmery hearts are just so sweet! Your celebratory balloons are fabulous ... awesome stencilling ... the sense of dimension is fantastic ... seems I could reach in and hold onto them! Delighted to have you playing along with us at Time Out! Hugs, Anita :)

Your balloons are marvelous...airy, see-through-y, incredibly pretty! And those puppies...oh my goodness! I want one...no, I want two puppies. Real life ones (I had two mini schnauzers, years ago). Two delights, my amazing friend!
Hugs~c
