Diva

 
Finally I am back home and in my craftroom. Today I made this tag for Astrid's Tag Challenge over at Stampotique. And is was a bit of a challenge because I don't usually make tags. So this was right outside my comfortzone. I must say I really enjoyed the process and will be making more tags in future. I used Distress paint and Dylusions spray ink for the background colour. Then I stamped some images on to make the background more interesting. I stamped Mothloved on white paper and coloured her in after which I embossed her with clear embossing powder. I then cut her out and glued her on the tag. I used some Tim Holtz washitape to stand her on and stamped the word Diva with the distressed alphabet stamps again from Tim Holtz. Lastly I put the ribbon on and added a little flower I made from clay way back in my jewelry making days... Hope you like it.

  2. Hi, Corrie! I kept looking for a tag from you...glad to see you got back in time to post it! I would never have known that tags were outside your comfort zone because this is one great tag! I love how your stamped images in the background stay...well, in the background! That in itself, I think, is an art! Mothloved indeed looks like a diva in her pink frock! Well done! Bravo!

    1. Oh, thank you Kay, you are so kind. I never thought of making tags because I didn't really know what to do with them. But now I think I might alter an old book, add little pockets and keep them in there.
