TAG...YOUR IT!

I decided to revisit this card and enter it in the Flourishes Kid's Play Challenge this week.  As kids, my baby sister and I used to play Tag.....We still do in our own fashion.  When things are getting a little tough in our lives we call each other and say "Tag ... Your it!" (Or..."Can you handle this for a while, I need to Breathe!")Then we talk about what is going on and sometimes it is just good to talk about it.  Also it is just an excuse to say hello to each other! 


The stamps are from the Flourishes Humming Along group.  I stamped the bird, colored with Copic Markers and then cut him out and used dimensionals to pop him up.  The bugle vine is also colored with Copic Markers and then cut out using a Spellbinders Circles Die.....while the die was still on the paper I used Memento ink in London Fog to shade the background.  The stamp on the tag is also Flourishes from Life Lines. I cut out ovals using more Spellbinders Dies  I used BasicGrey Cappella paper layered on black cardstock to set up the card and then mounted it on a white card base. I added a little bling from my stash.   I hope you like this.  And remember when things get a little sticky in your life.....call someone you love and say ...."Tag...Your It!"
