Altered tags, the next installments

Hi everyone, hope you are having a good weekend. A few days ago I posted an altered Crafty Individuals tag. A pack of 5 of these were given to me on commission to alter them and make them into a tag book.
They are great fun to do, although at times also a bit tricky, because one side has beautiful printing on them, and it's not so easy to try and enhance them without spoiling the beautiful design that's there already. The back of the tag is quite plain, so there, there is plenty of space to play.
Anyway here are my next lot of attempts.

Just got a whole lot of new stamps from a brilliant place called the Stamp Smith. This is the image that I first saw on Docraft and really liked. I asked the friend who has used it in an ATC, where she got it. Well she borrowed it from a friend who got it from ebay as a one off. But.... it had a title. I googled the title, and hey presto found the site. They have great stamps and offer a really friendly fast service. I highly recommend them!
