Easter theme tag set non DT project on 27 Feb 2025

 Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog!

-- from America's heartland!

why: This is a quick post because I've got lots of challenge blogs and DT commitments launching new challenges on Feb 28, March 1 and March 2. There are 4 each day x 3 days in a row = 12 challenge blogs. And many of them I've done 2 projects for!! CutCardStock company has a FB group called "Creating with CutCardStock" administered by Leslie T. Several on the CCS design team I've worked/are working with or have linked to challenge blogs that they've been DT members of in recent years. 

when: February bookmark/tag challenge for a gift card to CCS using CCS product is over February 28, 2025; I've entered 2 projects however more than 1 person has to enter before the gift card will be rewarded!!!! 

what: Easter (religious) theme tag set



and



notes:

1. Wild Blueberry; Pop Tone Grape Jelly, Sea Foam Green, and Conservation Flat Card in White = all cardstock products of CutCardStock

2. oval, butterfly and posy stencils from my stash were used to trace/template three of the shapes

3. circle punch was used for the white = stash/EK Success

4. blue and purple cording = Crafter's Square products

5. "Just for Ewe" stamp = label says Anita's circa 2002 Sugarloaf, Inc.; received this in a kindness box

6. hearts and "Jesus", "trust" and "pray" = part of a religious stencil set that I've had for many years; gifted from a friend

where: #1 = Creating with CutCardStock FB group; shared 2 pics to the February 2025 album

other places to share/link are:

#2. Just Us Girls; 4th week/anything goes with stencil; MY tag set has 3 shapes traced with stencil templates and then 3 words and a trio set of hearts stenciled with ink

link = https://justusgirlschallenge.blogspot.com/2025/02/just-us-girls-764-anything-goes-stencil.html

badge = 


#3. As You Like It; current; feminine or masculine and why; My tag set and with the majority of my creative projects, I lean more towards feminine because my ultimate favorite color is purple, 2nd or closely linked to #1 is pinks-magenta pink tones even burgundy; I love flowers and butterflies; hearts;....

link = https://asyoulikeitchallenge.blogspot.com/2025/02/favourite-feminine-or-masculine-theme.html

badge = 



#4. Word Art Wednesday; week 1 of 2 starting Feb 26; anything uplifting, encouraging; not contrary to Scripture; My tag set has Easter/religious symbols like a butterfly for resurrection/change/growth, a lamb/sheep for Lamb of God or people are like sheep needing a shepherd; words: pray, trust, Jesus

link = https://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/2025/02/anything-goes-weeks-689-690.html


#5. note: I own HQFSCAT challenges blog known as Heart's Quest For Shaped Cards and Tags. I can't link this up right now. #2 is closing on Feb 28. #3 begins on March 2nd. I could use it for a last minute reminder posting on February 27 but that doesn't give readers much chance to participate in #2. 

#6. FB groups: CCMWF; BJ & FA; also SIC (Christian/Bible groups)
