Talking Tag


Wowee! Want to make a card/gift that talks to the recipient??!!!!
Well, now you can!
Record your very own message!

With Talking Tag, you can send a gift that is uniquely you. Talking Tag is a message label you can attach to cards, invitations, gifts . . . anything! Personalise birthday cards, gifts or even record quick instructions for a recipe. Now your pictures really can say a thousand words!


How to send a voice message:
  1. Download the FREE TalkingTag™ App on you smartphone from talkingtag.mobi, iTunes® or Google Play™.
  2. Adhere the message tag to your card or gift.
  3. Open TalkingTag™ App and scan the code.
  4. Record your message (recording starts immediately, so make sure you’re ready!).
You will have the opportunity to listen, re-record, cancel, or confirm your message after you’ve completed recording it. Each label allows up to 60 seconds of a greeting, song, or product message.
To play the message, recipients will need to download the app and scan the code.  Messages are saved for two years, so they can listen to it over and over.
How to Buy Talking Tags:

Buy ‘em by the sheet! You get 10 tags for just 9.50 €/£7.25 (item 129723).Helpful Tips:
  • Adhere Talking Tag to a flat surface, otherwise the scanner can’t read the code.
  • Multiple tags can be attached to one surface, but don’t place them too close together. When scanning a message, you shouldn’t be able to see another code on the screen. 
  • Do not write or place any decoration over the label.
  • Talking Tag has a permanent adhesive and cannot be repositioned once attached to a surface. Attempting to remove it could tear the label, making it impossible to listen to the content.
  • A Talking Tag message label can only hold one message. Once a message is confirmed, it cannot be deleted or re-recorded.

Team Challenge

Here's another in-team challenge.
This week's layout did not inspire me at all, BUT I actually liked how it turned out.
Just goes to show there's no telling how a project will end up,
and how often it's not what you had in mind at all!
The challenge is one found on JKCards.wordpress.com, and it's actually originally a
Paper Craft Crew Sketch Challenge (#24)......bit of a mouthful!
This one's on confetti white card (similar to neutrals), using Everyday Enchantment DSP.
Stamp sets: Summer Silhouettes, Papillon Potpourri, For my Family.

My Sock Bouquet

I thought you might like to see the bouquet I got for xmas....
Nestled among the white rosebuds are socks!
Such a clever fab idea, and I had fun dismantling it and seeing how it was done.
Here's a close-up

wish big

My Nephew 'T' is growing up fast, and so I wanted to make a more grown-up card.....
Oh well, I did try, but was running out of steam after all the xmas cards I made!

Paper Layers

I had another go at one of JK Cards challenges...
decided to try it all in Designer Series Paper layers
(of which, I have far too much!)


I did ink around all the paper edges, but methinks it needs a little work...
although I do love these papers.
The punched border uses the Scallop Trim punch,
and the sentiment is from Bring on the Cake...
(so many sentiments in one set, and such good value)

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year everyone!
I hope you've all survived the festivities?
I've been lucky enough to have shared a relaxing time with Alan,
until he goes back to work on Monday.
I know a lot of you have been busy, and some have had to work,
but I hope you've had a lovely time whatever you got up to.

I saw this post on Gill Prescott's blog, and thought it was so good, I'd like to share it with you.
If you ever needed convincing how much fun stamping can be,
this is one to read......

I hope this link works, as I'm not very good at this stuff!
I think she's done a fab job of showing just what can be achieved with a few stamps and some ink and paper.
It's quite short, so if you have a few moments to spare......enjoy!
