The theme this week is ” Snow, Sports and Games and for my tag I decided to go in the opposite direction and steer clear of the sparkly stuff, that and the fact that the other ladies do it so much better !
This is quite a large tag and as you can see my icicles are defying nature and growing out towards the side , I am using my ” artistic license ” here, I did try them in more natural positions but well, they just looked too” normal ” I used some foam dots between the layers to give the illusion of dimension. The whole tag was created solely with the aid of my Silhouette machine not a stamp or even a jot of glitter in sight ! The sentiment such as it is and for those of you like myself suffer from bloggers blindness is a compilation of words relating to the theme, snow, ice, skating , sledding, you get my drift ( pun intended ) . Anyways hope you like it !
Am also linking this to Paper Creations Ink who are asking us to use die cuts/punches on our work
Just one more thing the greenery is not part of the tag …… what you had guessed that already, of course , silly me !
Right am off to visit you all and ooh and ahh at your wonderful creations
Until next time……….

Your tag is brilliant, Marie. And I think those icicles look just perfect where they are. I love how you layered them! Fabulous Silhouette work!! Is your background cut, or is it printed? If it's cut Sillie has done a fantastic job, and so have you! x

Very 'on the edge' or 'over the top' or whatever the latest term is for leading edge … love it! I'm sure your dogletts are broken hearted to be locked out of your presence … give them a hug for me if you don't have your little black dress on! :o) As always, thanks for sharing .. always enjoy. take care. xoDonna

So differerebt and so very creative tag!You are an artist, Marie!Thank you for the birthday wishes! 🙂
I love your tag Marie, ESPECIALLY the gravity-defying icicles! It's art after all, doesn't necessarily have to resemble real life (just be thankful icicles don't really grow like that!):) Thanks for your lovely comment on one of my blog posts, I really enjoy have a look around on your blog and perhaps find a little inspiration for my own creations 🙂 Have a great day!
