What an afternoon I’ve had ! R & B ( Rosy and Bailey ) the paper eating mutts decided it was time to have another paper eating frenzy. As usual they waited until I had completed my little masterpiece and while I was in search of the camera they mauled it !!! It’s my fault of course I left it in harms way, it even crossed my mind that they might try a little sabotage so only have myself to blame. The two of them are now in hiding I can hear them somewhere muttering and trying to form an escape plan !
I have had to redo my masterpiece in fact now it is a little gem ( how many masterpieces can a woman create in one afternoon ?) Of course after I had finished the light started fading and had the age old problem of where to take the picture ! They both ended up being taken on my balcony in a plant pot hanging from a leaf !!!!. ( not me the photo’s) To top the lot I Photo wont let me crop the second picture so please excuse background. What’s worse is that the second of the two tags the Crafty Individuals stamp I have used looks non existent but I assure you it’s there !
For those of you who haven’t met the dastardly duo here is a picture of them avoiding eye contact with me !
I want to enter these tags for two challenges (maybe I should enter the dogs might get more comments that way ) The Three Muses this week has keys as their theme , I love their site the always have interesting challenges and this weeks is no exception.
Also Frankie over at Dragons Dream Tag it On has a theme of A Tag by any other shape. Not sure if this fits the bill it is in theory tag shape but the tag and the keys have been cut out in one piece so Frankie let me know………
So just to sum up …..Two dodgy tags (second attempt ) poor visibility, unable to crop and two dogs on the run ! Hope you had a better afternoon than I did.
Until next time…………
Marie

XOXO Zoe

Smashing tags Marie, love the key one. Annette x
Oh they are both keys……lol xx
Little toe-rags – butter wouldn't melt… Whilst reading your post I got to thinking about what your neighbours must think of you – hanging tags on plants and taking photos – is tha the act of a sane woman!!! Lovely tags – my favourite by a very short hair is the green one 🙂 Nice to see a photo of the terrible duo. Have a great week. Elizabeth x
I especially love the first one.They do look a naughty pair, but very cute with it!
I love them, your dogs are cute too….Louise
Fantastic pieces, Marie!Those two little guys look TOTALLY guilty!
Marie, these turned out great, in spite of the naughty puppies! Okay, Yvonne is correct, especially the one on the right–he REALLY looks guilty . . .:)
These are great tags! I could see how the doggies would want to eat something so colorful and pretty. They do look guilty, don't they? They are avoiding looking you in the eye, just like a couple of naughty kids.
The details on these tags are amazing. I love them!
Great tags, great dogs – pity they like your masterpieces so much!!
Ah, an artist's life is a hard one! In spite of drawbacks and dastardly duos, you managed to create some pretty darned nice "stuff". Thanks for sharing with us at Three Muses!
I love your artwork, I love your style, I love your journaling and I COVET your dogs! So nice to meet you…I look forward to hearing more about your fabulous duo.
I'm sorry but I laughed out loud with your misadventures. Wow! The key-tag are gorgeous, you succeeded after all.
Gorgeous tags, naughty dogs, Marie! (but loveable, I bet!)
Oh this made me laugh, I know I shouldn't but I can just see them happily shaking the tags wildly in their mouths. I bet they had as much fun eating them as you did making them!!!!!!! The tags WERE absolutely gorgeous by the way…Sue x
Gorgeous tags!!!!!!!I have a box of paper scraps would you like me to send you the box to keep R&B busy??….LOL
What a funny post Marie, it did make me laugh – especially seeing the culprits avoiding eye contact with the camera!Your tags are beautiful anyway – especially the second one.
Fab tags and such cute little dogs ! love the keys on the first one (tag that is).
Both of your tags are gorgeous, Marie. Thank you for sharing them, and your trials and tribs at the Muses this week and send those doggies to bed for being naughty!
Beautiful tags! the little dogs obviously feel any attention is better than none. I am been used as a human scratching post lately to make a kitty point. Now you know you can't leave anything in harms way. LOL
Congratulations on your design
Great work Marie, and your 2 dogs are just wonderful! Thanks for visiting my blog and our kind comments. Nice to meet you! Hugs from Germany, Valerie
What a hoot! Marie, both your tags are so beautiful. You certainly know how to overcome adversity. The photo of Rosy and Bailey shows a bit of nervousness and perhaps guilt. Maybe they like the taste of the paints and inks you use.
Thanks for your support on my watercolor + collage. I will try it again. Tomorrows post will be an actual watercolor painting for Friday Painting Party. My first entry. Till then, take care, gerri
Hi Marie,I love your tags–they're fabulous! And I know what you mean about taking pics…It rained all day and I couldn't get any…Well, I had been up til 4 am trying to finish a big project, so I sure wanted a pic. More rain tomorrow, so guess what I'm doing Saturday morning! lolI love how your pictures turned out–Your pictures are always awesome.XO
Love your tags..such a unique design 🙂
Ahha the quilty pair!! whats a mother to do lolGreat tags :)Von x
Your tags are lovely! And I can relate to how you feel with that dastardly duo eating your masterpieces. My cat loves to chew and shred paper. I keep telling him he's lucky he's good looking, or he'd be in serious trouble. 😉
Maybe they were trying to make dog tags!
Fab tags I love them bothWhat die cuts them or are they bought that shape I love them Hugs Susie Sugar xx
