Evening all.. well I should be saying goodnight as I am so so tired but hey I wanted to get this on here tonight before I chase those jumping sheep down the road lol.
I didn't really know what I wanted to work on tonight. I suppose we all have those moments where we become stuck on ideas and worry that we have lost it.. well it was my turn again.
I decided to make up a tag for no reason except that I did lol. I used distress inks for the background colour over clear embossed script stamp. I used a set of roman/greek type stamps and cannot for the life of me remember where they are from but I promise to update this if it comes to me. I used a small frame for the lady's face.. not sure if you can see it all that well. I used jewelled ribbon and flowers from my stash. I inked up a couple of feathers using forest moss ink. The metal corners, I believe, came from Cuddly Buddly. The stones at the base of the tag came from an old necklace of mine. See upcycling again .. you just can't keep me out of the bins! The coin charm and chain also jumped out of me from one of many stash drawers....
Anyway here are the pics
