Just popping by today to share a new challenge I’ve been playing along with: The Tag You’re It’s challenge! It looks to be relatively new and I love making tags! Here is the inspiration photo:
Here is my first take!
The flowers were randomly painted with watercolor. The flowers themselves come from a Silhouette die cutting file. That’s all for now! it’s late! Take care and thanks for stopping by!

Hi It’s Tyra and I wanted to share a little fun with an embossing folder I picked up from The Crafter’s Workshop.
I used embossing paste + spray inks from Mr. Hueys to create the pattern on the card. I cut the mat at an angle and matted it onto the card. The “hello” sentiment is from the latest Simon Says Stamp card kit. I’m playing along with the Simon Says Anything Goes Challenge. As always, thanks so much for stopping by! Tyra 🙂
Hi It’s Tyra and I’m here to play along with the latest CASE study:
I love the colors and the vellum, don’t you! Here is my inspired take:
I finally got a chance to use Ranger’s layering stencil and added vellum on top. Also I used one of my favorite dies from Studio Calico — a die that creates a stitched effect. The string is from my last Clique Kits. That’s all for now. thanks so much for stopping by!

Hello It’s Tyra and today I’m finally sharing some of what I made with that Clique Kits Kit Haul I shared. Warning, A LOT of pictures. I just got into a little creative groove, so here it is. And there are more paperclips. Last, I am supposed to share a few of my favorite things. Well time with my personal circus act, a.k.a. my kids and of course card making. So I will let the pictures speak for themselves.

Hi it’s Tyra and I’m here to share my latest kit haul. See this post for my reason for this fun little change of pace. Here is my latest haul from the Studio Calico Scrapbooking kit:
Another look here:
Love: Wood embellishments, foam stamps, acrylic paint and anything in brush script.
I promise to be back with a few projects from this haul. That’s all for now. Take care and thanks so much for stopping by!

Today I’m playing along with Moxie Fab World’s Photo Pocket Page Challenge which calls for creating a paper crafted project featuring a journaling card. Fortunately, I was struck with inspiration from one of my favorite songs when I created this card:
This song “Hello My Name Is” has different meaning for different people. For me is a a song that truly touches my heart!
The sentiment taped onto the card is my handwriting plus a fun typewriter font. I created a .png of it and printed it onto vellum. I layered with a little strip of paper from the latest Simon Says Stamp (July 2014) card kit and more vellum. I added some twine I found in the Target dollar bin , a tiny paperclip and I was done. This is a wonderful card for encouragement. That’s all for now! Take care, have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by!
Hi! Sorry I’ve been gone for a while but with a new season comes a little change in my routine. I have added keeping up with a vegetable garden to my daily to do list and I love the work that goes into it, but goodness I am tired! Anyway, I did find time to play along with the latest CASE Study:
I absolutely love Pamela Ho’s card! Well, here is my take:
I would have loved better light, but I’ll take what I can get. I used a little embossing paste and tried to paint some of the little dots with shimmery acrylic paint. I topped the card off with a sentiment embossed onto vellum. That’s all for now. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hi it’s Tyra and I’m here to share something a little different today. I often enjoy seeing “kit haul” posts. I think it reminds me of a time when I was little girl and my little girl friend and I would share what was inside our purses. This is sort of the adult equivalent of that. I thought I would share a recent haul from Clique Kits:
A little close up:
Colorful and lovely, huh? I’m wanting to create more layouts and so I thought that this kit might give me the jumpstart I’m looking for. And of course I’ll create a few cards 🙂
Well that’s all for now. Take care and thanks so much for stopping by!

Hello! I’m back with a little water color play as I play along with Clique Kits Summer School, a summer long event. Our first challenge involved using watercolor. Here goes:
I used the super fab Pelikan Opaque paint kit. Take a peek a the kit in my Two for Tuesday Feature. I’ll probably use the “Hopes & Dreams” panel for a card. The sweet little balloons are from the Sweet Stamp Shop. I used a copic brush marker to write the sentiment on the small tag (Yes I was listening to the song by the same name when I created this tag). The “hi” is from an old set of white letter stickers. These projects are not in their finished stage, but really wanted to share what I have created. That’s all I have for now. Take care and thanks for stopping by! xo, Tyra
