I am so very excited to be included in this swap hosted by Elizabeth at creative breathing, I have wanted to be in one of her swaps since I started reading her blog many months ago, what a wonderful blog it is filled with so many beautiful crafts, she is amazing, I hope you hop on over to check out her work and all the other talented girls included in the swap.
I had a really difficult time thinking of a theme for this evolving swap, finally it hit me, since pink is my favorite color I decided my theme would be Pink Bling, so each month my two tags will have just a bit of pink bling incorporated into their design, maybe a little or maybe a lot!!! I really could not wait to get started on the long running swap, my purchases made onto my supplies and my first two tags!!! Yey..................
These are the papers and supplies i purchased and or chose for this year long swap, I probably added too much but i like to be overwhelmed with supplies when I work............................
after sitting down to work on my first two tags i realized i made a little boo boo, i forgot to order doubles of my chip images and stickers so some of my tags may not be exactly the same from month to month since i don't have two images of each but the design will be the same on each tag, so sorry.... and these are my January set of tags, I hope you like them............................

I cannot wait to visit all the participants blogs to see their wonderful work..... and I'm so excited to start thinking about february's tag, there will definitely be hearts involved............... until next month, this is so much fun......... happy tagging...................................

Hi Lizzi~
Your tags are so adorable with their Pink Bling theme. (I don't think they need to match exactly) It has been such a kick to see all of the different themes and ideas from everyone. This swap is going to be like a year-long party! Fun! Fun!
So glad I stopped here...your blog is amazing!! Love your art!
xoxo

Very cute. Love that October Afternoon Paper. Wish I could wallpaper my house in it. Thanks for sharing.

Pink Bling! Gotta love it! Lizzi, your tags are so cute. I, too, am joining in my first Bluebird Papercrafts swap and I am so excited! Thanks for the inspiration!

Too cute that you like to be "overwhelmed" with supplies! They all look so wonderful spread before you. I am so looking forward to your tags because I can never think of what to do with chipboard pieces. Thank you so much for joining me, and I already am looking forward to February!

Lizzi, your tags turned out great. I love the Pink Bling theme! My cards aren't exactly alike either and probably won't be for most months. I don't think it really matters :)
