They fascinate me !!not to mention their utility especially for a mom with young children who are more social than their parents !! this time around i made tags on request from a friend...i have not shown it to her as yet...hope she likes them......
 i've been hooked to distressing !!so much so that all my tags are distressed.take a look :

the weather is so windy here that its difficult to even click pictures,hence the ribbons are flying off !!
hope you all like it !!
