Sad News

Sadly, in light of the current economic climate, Andrew and Tanya have decided to close Tanda Stamps and move on to pastures new.  So it is with much regret that I have to say that last month's challenge was the final Tanda Teaser.

Zoe, Andrew, Tanya and I would all like to say thank you to everyone who took the time to enter/comment and to Sheila and Wendy who started the  Tanda Teasers about 7 years ago!

I hope that you all enjoyed our Teasers as much as we enjoyed setting them.

This is definitely the end of an era, and I would like to wish Andrew and Tanya good luck in their future endeavours.

Tanda Teaser 205 - January

Happy New Year everyone. Gosh 2013 a 1980's film still seems modern! Thank you all for your beautiful chilly colours in response to Sue's December Challenge. I'm afraid I've been a bit slack recently not just here but on the crafting front generally, you'll see my new years resolution on my January page. The page is my sample for this month's challenge which is JANUARY.

The first month of the year you might still be making calendars or maybe you follow the Zodiac, January's signs are Capricorn and Aquarius. It can be anything you want it to be so long as it reflects the overall theme of January.

For my calendar page I've used Capricorn from one of the Tanda Zodiac sets, and the pocket watch from Tanda's Background set 1. This challenge runs until the first Wednesday in February when Sue will be back to tease you with something new.

There are no restrictions on what you use, you do not to have to use Tanda stamps - you don't have to be a stamper either, just use whatever you have in your stash in whatever style you fancy! Please link back to your entry and not your blog....sometimes it is really hard to find your entries. If you could link back to the Tanda Blog to that would be great!

Tanda Teaser 201 - Myth and Mystery

Hello, Zoe here taking a turn at hosting the Tanda Teaser.

Sue has been looking after these Teasers single handed for a very long time and doing it  brilliantly. Nor is Sue leaving we are sharing the hosting taking turn and turn about. Our styles are very different so we hope you will find something for everyone.

You do not need to use Tanda stamps to enter, in fact you do not need to stamp at all. Make anything you want come back and share it with us.

For my first Tanda Teaser I've gone and used images from the Dragons and Fantasy sets. All the dragons have been coloured with Sakura glitter gel pens oh I wish you could see this irl it is so glittery and sparkly, especially the dragon's hoard. The theme is Myth and Mystery have fun with it. This challenge runs for the next 4 weeks.

Tanda Teaser 200 - CAS

Bit early with this...manic day tomorrow. Spent a very wet day on top of Box Hill last Sunday, cheering on the GB squad....shame we didn't get gold, but really glad to have got Silver!

Fab entries into the last Teaser, thank you so much for sharing. A big thank you to Zoe for helping me out again! You are a Star!

For Teaser 200 we would like to see you thinking CAS.  Just in case you haven't come across CAS before, it stand for Clean and Simple....so no sticking of lots of embellishments and lots of white space generally.  This teaser will run for 4 weeks.

Suex NB Just woke up and realised.....I'm actually a week early with this! So if you wanted to enter the summer sports Teaser, you still have a week to do so....it just means that you have more time to think about your CAS cards as this will run until 5th September.
