Make a Tag Challenge

How easy it is to make a tag!  Come and join the challenge by submitting an entry.  All winners are chosen by random generator so anyone can win whether they are just a beginner or advance crafter.  If you can't find where the challenge was announced, just look at the top of my sidebar and click on the current challenge name.  You will go right to the announcement because I post quite a bit between challenges.

You can submit any shape tag or size as long as the entry resembles a tag,   You can pick the theme or just make one with colors.  The choice is yours
 
.  Below are some tags from the Design Team I hope will inspire you.

The background of my tag is a SPARK a paper that was sent to inspire.  My McMahon Five digital is an image of an orange with a verse of inspiration from the Bible.  The oranges I colored with Copics seem to have a reddish color in my scan, but they really are more orange.  This is one of a set I bought from Sue of McMahon Five quite a while back.  I plan to also make a set of note cards with these images.

To create my dreamy feeling week two tag creation I started with the "rainbow" digital background sheet by McMahon Five.  I colored the "butterfly child" digi, also by our challenge sponsor, with promarkers.  I added a tissue paper heart, flower, and brad, and a vine cut out of designer origami paper.  Enjoy, have a great week and I hope you join the tag challenge!

 My tag, this week is mounted onto a card.  I just love the McMahon Five Design image and sentiment.  After printing it I cut it into a tag and colored it with Prisma colored pencils and Gelatoes.  The tag was mounted three times on coordinating c.s. and the mounted onto a dry embossed panel, then a black panel and then onto the card. I added a grunge board swirl and tied it off with raffia

I've made a collection of little tags using collage images and stamps on some beautiful quality paper


The main image on this tag is one from our sponsor for this challenge. Other additions came from my stash.

It is Summer! And beach time! I created this little beach tag with our sponsor's digital images adding just a little bit of sparkle and a very sparkly sunflower.
 
The lovely image from the sponsor is perfect for a quick tag or bookmark. I lightly coloured some spots with pastels, then added two larger coordinating tags. Cotton threads in the same fresh summer colours finish off this quick project, perfect for a last minute gift!

I thought this sea turtle was just so cute, and the paper was also adorable both are from McMahon Five The sentiment was also from the same place. I coloured the sea turtle with pencil crayons and odourless mineral spirits. The Tim Holtz tag and bookplates was used in cutting both the printed paper and the base. The second tag is from a Sizzix scallop tag #2. Hope you join us for the second week of the challenge.

 
McMahon Five is my sponsor for this challenge.  Please visit her site and look at all the wonderful images Sue has to offer.  My sponsors so graciously agree to sponsor my challenge so I urge you to go and patronize them from time to time.

Challenge #65 - "Make a Tag"

Summer is really flying by and school will be starting soon.  I am sure everyone is trying to get ready for school so we have a very easy challenge this time.  Just make a tag...no restrictions on size or shape....just so it looks like a tag.  Of course, we would love it if you used an image from McMahon Five, my sponsor this time.
Vicki
My tag uses a delightful image from McMahon Five.  I colored it with Copic markers.  The image was placed on a background  made from a napkin.  Various stickers were added to give it a beach theme..

Michele
This simple tag features the turtle background digital image from our challenge sponsor McMahon 5 and the digital beach girl with sand.  I added a sentiment from my stash.  It feels great to continue celebrating summer!  I hope you will join the challenge.

I chose the flip flop background paper from McMahon Five Designs for my tag this week.  I then enlarge the print and trimmed out the blue flip flops.  The edge of the tag and flip flops are distressed with blue ink.  I added TH die cut flowers, with a pink rhinestone flower in the centers.  Sticker for the letters and a "fun in the sun" stamp from the $$store.  The lower edge has gold embossing powder and real small shells.
For my tag I used background papers, an image & sentiment from our sponsor!
I love the bright colours and repeated them in the cottons I tied on the tag.
Barb
I chose this cute boy image playing in the sand, the background paper is also from McMahon, I cut the tag with my Tim Holtz Tags and Bookplates Movers and shapers die, I trimmed it a little.  I layered it on turquoise which I also cut from the tag die. The sentimet also came from the same site, I was excited as I love the Beatles and have a few of their CDs.  One day I will remember to bring accessories with me to the cottage, fortunately I had left a ball of yarn and I used it  for the "tail" on the tag

I am excited to have McMahon Five as my  sponsor for the next two weeks.  Sue has some really cute images and she is known for the beautiful cancer images.  These are amazing and are very appropriate to send to someone who is experiencing this disease.
