Tag a Day project #8

Well, there I am again with yet another tag. I know I missed a few days because other things came in between, but I am still determined to get this finished, which is not hard as I am enjoying the process and that was what this project was all about, so here goes: - No 8
This one is much simpler than some of the previous ones, probably as close to Clean And Simple as I will ever get.... Background was a mix of Distress Paints and Inks, Antique Linen, Bundled Sage and Frayed Burlap, stenciled with a mix of Crafters Workshop stencils and a bit of stamping with the Tim Holtz Papillon background stamp.
The main stamp is another La Blanche, here you can see a further detail of this stamp:

A Prima embellie, some old lace and a pen nib

And finally, some Type Writer keys and chit chat stickers by way of a sentiment and there you have it.....

In a way I was practising some techniques for a bigger DT project that I may show some time next week, we'll see where that goes. Meanwhile, thank you so much for visiting and like always I feel so grateful for your wonderful comments. I try and pay as many return visits as I can, but do not always make it, so apologies for that....

    Another lovely tag Astrid - I really like your background stamping, thought at first it was the TH rub-ons but I do like the effect you've got here. Beautiful La Blanche stamp too. This is going to be one gorgeous tag book when its all put together. Love, Margie x

    This one is so delicately pretty... the background colours so subtly blended. The tissue tape adds interest beautifully, and what a fantastic motto... you'll know how much that hits home at the moment!
