Ice Lollies and ice Cream

Morning-just!!! and I have a tag to share today --Now first of all I had the bright idea of making my own washi tape with masking tape and used my stamps-then I stuck it on the card and it completely merged into the card!!!-note to self colour first!!!then I doodled lines down the edges and coloured the images-didn'r like it so that came off-then idea=ice-lollies put sticky finger marks on looked absolutely stupid but carried on and stamped hand marks and the card didn't take the promarkers well either---soooo-made another lol-will post this one at the end to show you and no pointing and laughing-I will hear you!!!Funny thing is now I see them both posted together not sure if I prefer this one anyway???

Anyway my tag for today the ice lolly(coloured with promarkers and added glossy accents) and sentiment stamps are craft mag freebies/texture stamp round the edge is Crafters Companion/splat stamp from Visible Image/tiny sprinkles and ribbon from stash.Oh and I solved how the glossy accents made crackles--how long have I been crafting for and next time use glasses properly---only bought Glossy Accents Crackle Glaze doh!!!

Great tags, enjoyed the info on how you made them. Thanks for sharing with us over at Digichooseday today.

I'm so glad you shared both, because I think they're both fantastic! In fact, I love the 'panel board' look background on the fingerprint tag! It made me think of all the sticky prints from ice-creams after a day at the beach. Your 'proper' tag is fantastic too! Love the splatters and the super edging! Thanks so much for sharing these with us at Penny's Paper-Crafty Challenges!

The colors on the first are so fun and cheerful. Love the border. The "sticky" fingerprints on the second were such a creative idea!
