Tree Tag

The Weekend Tagger challenge this week was to use a Christmas tree on a tag. Here, I used a Club Scrap collage stamp. I dabbed on Distress Inks -- tea dye, peeled paint and broken china -- and stamped on hot press watercolor paper. To finish, I gilded the edges with gold leaf pen, and then added three crystals on the left side in the big snowflake, the star, and on the bottom of the tag.

A simple gold bow finishes the tag.

Thanks for the challenge, ladies. I've had this stamp for a couple years, and this is the first time I've used it.

Autumnal Tag

This week's challenge at Tag You're It! was to make a tag about autumn. This was my third attempt:



The stamps are all Hero Arts. I colored the image with pencils. As always, I appreciate the challenge!
