Tim's March Tag and Word Verification is off!

Firstly I would like to thank May for bringing to my attention that the horrid word thingy was on my blog.  I had "tested" by commenting on my own blog and it did not ask me for it...that is because my blog knows who I am as the author and it does not need to ask me for verification...  Anyhoooo

I looked up on Google for help on how to turn it off and found this web site called 66Square Feet and they have a very simple explanation that I will copy and paste here for you so you can check and see if you have it on yours...

You cannot turn them off from the new interface.
Go to your old dashboard.  
Find your old dashboard by clicking on the settings icon (little grey wheel/cog) top right of your new interface.
It will give you a dropdown menu.
Click on Old Blogger interface
From there proceed to Settings, then Comments.
Uncheck Word Verification.

It was so simple when I knew how!

Now on to Tim's March Tag:


I did make one earlier with other dies and stamps, but could not resist buying the little butterflies die when I saw them in my local Scrapbook shop...they smiled at me!


I chose to use a stamp in the background that is made locally here in South Africa.  It does not have any branding on it so I could not tell you who makes it, but it is stunning in my opinion.

Also, I don't have those metal flowers so I chose to use the pine cone die and made a rose which I had also stamped with the background stamp so that it all matches...

Thanks for the visit, I really appreciate it.

    ooh! Great tag - love the colours and the roses and the black on the wings looks incredibly effective! Love how those butterflies smiled at me - that is always happening to me - funny how crafting supplies are always so eager to jump into a shopping basket...!

    What a lovely card! I love the colors and that stamp is wonderful. I like how you used the pinecone die to make rose. It's beautiful made with the same stamp and colors. I have that die and haven't used it yet. I think I'm going to have to get it out and make some lovely little roses!

    Love the tag. Gorgeous background stamp and I like the way you made a matching rose embellishment from the same stamped image. And your use of bold black for the 'grout' is a good contrast for the bright red of the stamping. I for one will be very thankful you turned WV off.

    You did an awesome job with the colors on your tag - I have the pinecone die and forgot I can make roses with it. Thanks for the inspiration!
