This is my tag today:
This is how I achieved this look:
1. Blend various shades of green distress ink all over the tag
2. Stamp Poinsettia randomly over the tag in a pale olive colour
3. Stamped same Poinsettia in lower left corner in Silver pigment ink
4. Stamp 'music' small background stamp in black in top left corner
5. Apply sparkle gel through a snowflake stencil all over tag
6. Once all is dry, mount sentiment strip on to tag with foam tape
7. Top it with a bow (made from a scrap of ribbon that was laying around)
8. Finishing touch was a sparkly gem 'thingy'
Thank you all for all your very kind comments throughout this challenge, I appreciate every one of you!
Have a wonderful week! Hazel xx

Oh my, this is gorgeous. Such a beautiful background and that ribbon looks fab!
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely and I'm pinning it for a future CASE (as long as you don't mind)! My sister plays the viola and I think she would appreciate a tag with a little music on it! You've done such a great job dipping your toes into mixed media. I think you're a natural!
