A Late Tag Tuesday

Louise's Tag Tuesday challenge this week was to use polka dots and stripes. Mine is just a little late due to several house guests I had this past weekend...Louise, Pam, and Robin! More on that later!
The stripes are obviously the zebra and the polka dots were achieved by using a sequin waste stamp. This tag was a collaborative project done around midnight last night by Louise, Pam and me. (Robin, you should have stayed another night!) We stayed up a little too late (2am) but had an unforgettable time playing with some of our new toys that we purchased at the Heirloom Production show.
Below are some of the backgrounds that we made.
Metallic pigment inks (from JudiKins) on black glossy cardstock from Marcos Paper.

More metallic inks stamped on black glossy cs and a pearlized paper using the same stamp and colors.

Wish you could see the metallic goodness going on here. It is just dazzling!

What an incredible weekend...good food, good shopping, good fun, lots of laughs and fantastic friends. What more can you ask for...warmer weather maybe! Let's do it again!!!

How pretty! I know pictures on a monitor can't capture the beautiful glow of metallics.
