Week 14 @ B&B

Hello everyone I hope you had a great week-end mine was the usual mad house Darling home for 2 days now gone back for 11 days how will I cope :)!!!! Today I'm going to Town with my over excited daughter to pick up her new phone, then I have to go to the council offices to sort out a tree problem & Building permission (hopefully get my workshop in the new year woo hoo)

This week at Bows & berries the challenge is tags, I don't personally like doing these as I don't think I do them justice the team have made some really nice ones, I am at the present having difficulties uploading my pics from my phone but my lovely friend Elaine Aka sparklingblackrose helped me with a bit of texting & E-mailing we got it sorted (cheers matey). So here it is let me know what you think to it I would really appreciate the feed back.

For this Tag I have used Craftwork card Ruffles, Poinsettia (old stock don't know if you can still buy them), gems from Dovecraft, Stamps from Inkadinkado plate # 98397, ribbon from stash & Hologram Super Sparkle embossing powder (don't know if you can see it).

The usual rule applies that you don't have to use a B&B image but it would be nice to see them.

If you use the code BB25 at the shop checkout it will get you 25% off all digis!!
