Tags


Its Tag week  over at Try it on Tuesdays.This time for our theme, we are asking you to 'Dig Out the Old'.

So, search out the stamps you have had for ages and maybe never used. 
Pop over, to see all the details and see the super examples.

The stamps I used are a Creative Expressions set. I bought them in a bargain bin  about this time last year.  My intension was to make tags for bottles that we give as gifts at Christmas. That idea went out the window as I forgot all about them. This year these will be used. along with a few others yet to be finished.

Its my favourite french script stamp on the background.
For shading I used wild honey, antique linen and vintage photo distress inks, with cosmic shimmer watercolours for the images. The first tag has  glossy accents on the glass and bottle, I think it highlighted the colour to much.




Thankyou for stopping by to take a look, I realy appreciate your comments.
