Tag a Day Project #6

Another day, another tag, well this one is quite different from the previous ones....
First of all, there is no blue to be found on it at all, and also hardly any green.... really this tag was just a little fun project to use up some of the wonderful G45 French Country papers from yesterday's project. It does however use some stamping: the banner at the top (coloured with Distress Inks), the little tags and the postcard were all made using some of the great stamps that come with this collection. I just know there is going to be a little booklet somewhere in the near future. Anyway, I will leave you with some close ups and thank you so much for visiting. Have a creative week!!

Gorgeous... the layers you've created out of these beautiful papers are just wonderful, and the dimension from the butterfly and sunflower - lovely! I'm coveting the French Country stamps really quite badly, and you're not helping! I hope your tags are working on your mojo - they're working on mine!

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!
