Tim's July 2016 tag has to be one of my favorites. The whole slit and layered concept just makes me smile! :) I have about a zillion ideas for this tag, but settled on a beach themed tag because I can't get enough of playing with these Christine Adolph sea stamps.
Lately, one of my favorite things is to sit and paint folders with watercolor. I use my painted paper for everything and decided it would make a great backdrop for this embossed sand dollar. I used Adirondack denim by Ranger. The back tag was inked with Chipped Sapphire Distress Ink. I stamped some watermarks onto it for texture.
I have had this charm for ages and connected it to some leftover dyed cheese cloth for my topper. This was fun and super relaxing, what's your take?
I'm sharing with:
Such a gorgeous tag Autumn! I love the techniques and your design, the colours are superb too with your pretty painted paper background. Hugs, Chris
ReplyDeleteGreat take Autumn, love the theme and colours xxx
ReplyDeleteA great tag, I have yet to finish mine off but love what you have done. Lynn x
ReplyDeleteYour attention to detail always amazes me! Love the little fish charm and the cheese cloth for trimmings. The colours harmonize perfectly and all the parts work together so well.
ReplyDeleteLove your tag, Autumn! Simple but not simple-looking - just beautiful! Love the blues you used and such a pretty sand dollar stamp. Your cheesecloth bow is very pretty - I need to try that but I'm kind of stuck on crinkle ribbon right now - LOL! That is the cutest darn charm, too!!!
ReplyDeleteMe again, Autumn! Thank you for visiting my blog and leaving comments on my Tim tag - you're so sweet and I appreciate you taking time to do so. One of these days I will do more posts - promise! Hugs!!
