Simon Says Stamp and Show a tag!



Over at Simon Says Stamp, it is make a Tag week...Oh how I love to make a tag! This was a challenge just for me!

Today I used some fabric swatches that I ran through my trusty Vagabond and cut out the flowers, inked their edges with walnut stain distress ink and put a spiral of perfect pearls in their centres.

I stamped the leaves with espresso paint dabber then I added gold embossing powder while it was still wet and heated it. I then filled in the centre of the stamp with the paint dabber and drew the veins in with my gold pen.

I finished off the tag by using my rollor pricker for fake stitching and drew over it with first brown AC slick writer and then my gold pen.
