I was trying to catch up with blog posts as I am a bit behind and so busy at the moment, when I saw her fabulous inspiration. I thought about what I could do using a new die from sizzix which I have just bought from Country View Crafts, (arrived amazingly fast). And this is the result.
I covered a Manila tag in Fresco Acrylic Paint using Teal and Taupe. Next I stencilled in Chalk using a Tim Holtz stencil.
I distressed the tag with Walnut Stain distress ink and stamped some script and nibs in Potting Soil Archival ink.
I added my cut outs which I had distress with Tea Dye, Walnut Stain, Black Soot and Mustard Seed. Once dry I added some treasure gold here and there.
Now I assembled it all adding my words.
And here's the finished tag
I'm going to enter this into the challenge. Thanks for visiting and please come back soon. Debs xxx
