I have not posted for ages as I have been incredibly busy, both at work and with creating and scheduling projects for my various design teams. As I am away for most of July and had to schedule my July posts too well and create the projects of course. But today I finally had some time to play. I was sent a pack of 5 large decorated tags by Crafty Individuals. Someone has asked me to alter them for her and make them into a tag book. At least that's what I decided I would do with them. Here is the first one, both the front and the back:
This side had a beautifully printed background already, all I did was add an image, some flowers and lace, and a bit of stamping. The little butterflies which were stamped also.
The back was really plain, so here I created the background pretty much completely.
This is a beautiful tag. xx
ReplyDeleteIt looks gorgeous. xxxx

Oh Astrid what for wonderful new work my friend.
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous.
Love them. xoxo
The two sides of the tags are beautiful. The romantic themes, the stamps, the design with delicate lace and flowers - it's a dream!

Wunder-wunderschön, wie im Märchen.
ReplyDeleteOh how pretty this tag is Astrid. Love the delicate flourish on the front and that's such a feminine image too. I have some of those lovely tags and I haven't been able to bring myself to do anything to them yet in case I spoil them. I must take a leaf out of your book.

ReplyDeleteyou mentioned the stamps on my last LO .. very easy .. they are Prima stamps (acrylic) I just stamp them randomly and layer with different colored ink ... the chicken wire is a mask ..
