Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge: "What I'm known for"

Good Monday Morning! We have a great challenge going on at Simon Says Stamp and Show!! It is called "what I'm known for" I do think that for most of us this probably changes somewhat as time moves along. I know at least lately, I have been making a lot of inked background papers; so I am going to say that most people would give that answer if you asked them about me lol! So here is my project:


Whether it be a home made inked background or a stamped background....I always struggle with covering it up....that is what my crafty friends know me for LOL!! My tags keep getting bigger and bigger :)



I would love to see your projects, and see if what you think your known for is what I know you for :)

Simon Says Stamp Superstore is offering up a $50 dollar gift certificate to one random participant, so please join us! You can check out the rest of the awesome DT projects HERE.


Have a fabulous day! Hugs, TRace
Thanks for stopping by to visit!!!

There's no such thing as too big a tag! I love the vibrant colour of your tag and the effect you have achieved... it looks gorgeous! The heart and those wonderful flowers look just fabulous, there's so much detail to see. A great tag full of creativity and love. Sarah. X

A gorgeous, opulent tag! Love the rich red tones, the fab texture on the heart, and the embellishments and pretty trim along the bottom. I'm not surprised you don't like covering up your backgrounds, they're great! Maddy x

Trace...your big tag is gorgeous! I always love your backgrounds. I've yet to try the sea salt technique ... but I do have the sea salt now! haha Love this vivid red piece. The black stamping around the edges is really cute and the embellishments adorning the large heart are beautifully done. Love it all! <3 Candy
