So, here we are, Tuesday already and time for our little reminder about this week's Dare, and a Little Extra just in case you're not already busy enough....
We are amazed at just how many things you've found so far to stamp with - look's like Keryn's Dare has really got you looking around your homes for stamping possibilies that you'd never considered before. There's still a few days to go, so if you haven't joined in yet there's still time - we really do love to see your cards.
Now, we'd like to help you out with your Christmas preparations this time so we're veering ever so slightly away from cards for this week's Little Extra - well of course, you've made, written and sent ALL your cards out by now, haven't you? (yeah right).
This week we'd like you to make 3 tags for your Christmas Presents using this list of words to help you; holly, gift, snowflake, ribbon, tree, silver
So hopefully this year your presents will be adorned with pretty handmade tags, and not just plain white sticky labels.....
See - I said we like to help;-)
Here are Jo and Keryn's to get you thinking, now it's over to you - just leave a message as usual and we'll be sure to come and see what you've made.
Hello and welcome to The Daring Cardmakers blog! We are a team of card-makers from the UK, mainland Europe and India who'll try to inspire and encourage you to make some wonderful cards. Every Friday at about 10am UK time, one of our design team will post a new dare/challenge, along with our creations to get you inspired. So go on, give it a try - we dare you! Leave us a comment with a link to your card so that we can view your lovely creations too!

Oh wow - these are so cute! Thanks fro being so thoughtfully practical about the challenge this week - I could really use some cute tags like this right now! Will get to this in the next day or so....
Love these little tags girls, and another brilliant 'little extra'.. Right Thinking Cap On!!!
Wow did I pre-empt this challenge ! I hope these tags I made just a day or so earlier b4 the dare can be accepted -cos yeah ! runnin' out of time ! They already had silver , gift & tree in them ! lol . I am using these tags for pressies for a family with 6 kids - we did use to have punchart parties when the kids were younger & now one of them ( 12 yrs old ) is beginning to make & wants to try to sell her handmade cards !
Great gift tags ladies!
Just uploaded mine onto my blog, it was a nice change to make these instead of cards.
thanks for the challenge ladies, but I have a little challenge of my own...my paper cutter broke last night half way through a colleagues order!!! Aargh....
I do have Elliot my big shot so sorry Kathy, if I am to play along I will need to break him free of his boxes!! Funny that, I got a free tag die with it!!!
I bet you kicked that cutter down the stairs just looking for an excuse to get Elliot out of his box, Paula!
Tags are great fun to make - and of course you can always stick them on cards too!
Here are my offerings for this weeks mid week dare....
I've killed two birds with one stone & having got a new cutter, Elliot didn't come out to play!!!
