Meet the Our Craft Lounge DT!

Smiley from millan.net Good Monday morning!
I'm so excited to tell you the news about Our Craft Lounge. We have a new design team and some fun things to do over at the OCL forum!

First of all let me show you my tag I made with the Going Gourmet stamp set. The wine bottle, grapes and cheese images in this set are what I used to make this tag to put on a bottle of wine for a gift. I used the little swirl and grape strip stamps for the background.

I made the lace flower by stitching the edge of the lace and gathering it to form the flower. I colored a white Prima flower with a Copic marker to match. The lace flower is glued to a scalloped cardstock flower I cut with my Big Shot and die. The tag is sponged with Ranger Distress inks and stamped, there is patterned paper on it and the 2 images are popped up.

I cut some paper & card stock with the SU! Bigz Top Note die and put across the bottom and a piece along the side in green.
Supplies: Stamps - OCL Going Gourmet. Paper - GP white, MME Penny Lane, SU! Eggplant. Ink - Ranger Distress Black Soot, Antique Linen, Shabby Shutters, Dusty Concord, Milled Lavendar, Copic markers. Acces. - tag, lace, Glossy Accents (on the wine bottle and glass images), white cotton string, tiny white tag (For you), dangly crystals, button, Prima flower, ribbon, SU! big eyelets (top & bottom of tag). Tools - Big Shot, Bigz Top Note & Bigz Pennant (flower) dies, tracing wheel, Tim Holtz blending tool.

OK, now I can talk about the new OCL design team, WOOHOO, I'm so excited to be working with this great groups of ladies, major talent going on here! I'll list them here, go check them out!

I was out in my yard getting a picture of the hot pink rose bush and this mocking bird in the cedar tree was giving me grief!
I found out why, look at these 2 babies in the bush, this bush is a huge climber and there is a nest in there somewhere. I would think that would be a painful place to live with those thorns, but, momma bird may have chose that bush for that reason, the thorns might keep critters out of the nest!
This rose bush has clusters of tiny bright pink roses, I think I found the perfect one.
I hope you have a great day, have fun blog hopping today!
Thanks for stopping by!
