Tag #2


For some reason, I seem to be hung up on pink lately.  I never used to do anything in pink and now that is all I want to do.  I made this tag to enter in Joan's Gardens weekly tag challenge.  The idea is to make several tags that you might need for the year.  I'm always needing a tag for something and then I never take the time to make one, so this is just right down my alley!  If I get my ducks in a row, I might just have enough tags for the whole year.....well at least I would have a good start!   My tag is pretty simple really....I sponged Ranger Distress ink in Victorian Velvet then stamped and embossed my swirl with clear embossing powder, then I sponged Aged Mahogany over that.  I added an edge using a Martha Stewart Punch and then I made flowers to go on it using the Tim Holtz Tattered Florals Die, and Prima E-Line flowers.  I sponged them with Victorian Velvet Ink as well.  The tag is a Spellbinders Tag die cut in half and the sentiment is from Just For Fun Stamps.  I hope you enjoy!

Well it is Friday and the weekend is in sight!  Have a great day and remember to take time to breathe!

This is so beautiful. And pink is perfect right now. All any of us want is for the snow to go away and the flowers to start coming up. Pink reminds me of spring!
Have a great weekend! I'm so glad it's Friday!
