The First 10 Followers

Thank you to the 10 people who are following my little Blog.

You get to look back over the tags and forum sets posted and pick the one you would like to have personalized. Please reply here (comments) and let me know the one you like and the name you want on the tag. If you would prefer, you can request a name other than your own (give to your friend). I will post the tags here on the Blog in a new post for picking up.

If you wish, you can wait for a future set/tag. This offer will only last until Dec 31st though.

Thank you friends and followers.

I'm a Twilight Fan

I haven't seen the new Twilight movie but I will next week I hope.

In honor of the release of the movie, here are some Twilight themed SnagTags.

These tags were made from the free tube by Zindy S. D. Nielsen found at Zindy-Zone.dk

I apologize for not knowing the location of the mask I used. If you do recognize it, please let me know so I can point people to the mask location.

Enjoy.

Happy Birthday

Classy Tags

Don't you just love all the stereotypical tags of pin-ups and girlie-style with a bit of attitude? They are pretty and display fantastic talent by the artist and the tagger who showcases the tubes but there is nothing that dictates tags can not be classy too.

I love fine art, old masters, and non-typical tags. Today I am offering some snags from my own photos, manipulated with Corel Painter Photo Essentials 4.  I hope you like these as well.

Jody Bergsma Changes TOU

Since Oct 23rd I have been in contact with Jody Bergsma of Bergsma Gallery Press in the hopes of having her Terms of Use modified so taggers would be able to use her wonderful art work.

Her previous TOU had stated tags were acceptable but only with a "clickable link". Taggers know there is just no way to fulfill this requirement.

Today I called and left a message on her voice mail and to my surprise & joy, she emailed me this afternoon to let me know the TOU have been changed.

Now we CAN use her art for forum sets and tags however the URL IS REQUIRED ON THE AVATAR. While not the standard requirement, I am certainly not going to complain about having to include the url!

All tags, siggy tags and avatars must include the following, legibly posted:
© Jody Bergsma – www.bergsma.com

New TOU:

Signature Tags/Avatars: We do allow our artwork to be used for this purpose if Jody has a name credit written on the actual signature as well as Jody's website www.bergsma.com included in it or below it in the case of images. Each and every time that signature or avatar is posted somewhere, it must have the name credit and website address visible.

Thank you Jody Bergsma!

Chihuahua Lovers and Artist Unite to Save Pixie

Many people are familiar with the beautiful work of Nora Blansett as photographer, illustrator and jewelry craftswoman! Her website is full of her creations:   Borealis Art

What some people may not be as familiar with is her love for her beautiful four-legged family members, Pixie, Angel and Chili Bean. And this is the reason for the post.

Pixie, Nora's 7-yr old precious Chihuahua is in trouble. Pixie has cancer and needs surgery.

There is a Save Pixie Facebook Page set up for Pixie where other artist have come to donate their special talents for an auction to help raise the $1200 for the surgery needed.

Please Help Save Pixie

You can also find out more by visiting the Borealis Art page on Facebook..

If you are an artist and /or an animal lover and want to donate a creation to help in raising the funds for Pixie, please stop over at either page. If you are uncomfortable using Facebook, as some people are, you can alway contact Nora via her website.

If you are not an artist but want to support the cause by bidding on an item or just by making a donation, you should drop by the page on Facebook. Not only will you be assisting with the wonderful cause of saving Pixie, you will be participating in spreading the word about and supporting many great independent artist.

Gina's Gems Scraps SnagTags

I love to make tags with just scrapkits. They are easy, fun and when you can find the freebies or an Add On, then it makes it cost effective during these hard times.

Today, I did the "Tag My Scrap" in our forum where the scrapkit was "Woodland Falls" by Gina's Gems Scraps. After I made the requested tag, I thought I'd make some snags for you. Enjoy!

Happy Fall
