Loving my AA #94 DT card and shaped tag with AG theme on 15 May 2025

Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity Blog!

why: This post's purpose is to showcase a new DT inspiration card for #94 at AA or Ally's Angels. It's a challenge blog with anything goes theme each offset month. My choice this time was to punch the circle (sky/inked) then ink the front panel. Next was to stamp the sentiment within the circle. Lastly adding the embossed stickers and little hearts and dots to create a scene. That was describing steps for Project #1 Llama card. For #2, clear glue was used to adhere the little parachute guy to the chalkboard tag. Overnight dry time was needed. The tag came with the natural beige cording so I added red and black cording, added a bunch of little enamel dots to look like other stuff floating in the sky. Colorful alpha stickers arranged in a staggered order than completes the fun tag

when: #94 starts May 15 and ends June 12, 2025.

what: PROJECT #1Llama Llama Red Pajama ....NO!!! It's "Everyday Magic" encouragement card.



how-to notes for #1:
