Stampin'D'Amour Challenge

I am hosting this weeks challenge at Stampin'D'Amour a really cool message board with several very talented and sweet ladies! The challenge for this week will be to make an item, (i.e., card, atc, inchie, twinchie, altered object, etc.) using at least one stamp with the Christmas holiday season as the theme. It has been hot down in here in Texas and I just wanted to do something very cool lol! The challenge is open to anyone who is interested, please come and join in the fun!

I was fortunate enough to win a beautiful set of tags made by Nancy Malay during a recent drawing at the Pfatt Marketplace where they have the most wonderful handmade art. The tags that Nancy made are absolutely lovely and I can't wait to use them this holiday season. Please visit both Nancy's website and the Pfatt Marketplace.

Mannequin Tag

I made this mannequin tag for a dear friend of mine using some wallpaper that I snagged this weekend at a garage sale for the background. What do you think?
