Tag Your It!







Hello, it's time for a new challenge at Try it on Tuesday and this fortnight our theme is 'Tags'

I used corrugated card for my tag and smeared on a rough coat of Gesso before applying a coat of DecoArt Crackle paint.  Next came a sprinkling of PaperArtsy Infusions in Slime and a good spritz of water.  I must admit that no matter how many times I've tried to photograph this tag the colours either look too pale or too dark - sorry.
I've layered up a some Wildflowers, greens and twine over a Frameworks die cut and finished with a twine bow.

The rest of the Design Team have some great inspirations for you, so please pop over to the main blog and you'll also find all the challenge details.

Thanks for all your best wishes for hubby, I'm pleased to say he's recovering well.

Thanks for visiting, have a great day,
Avril xx

    Gorgeous tag Avril. I really love the rough texture of the cardboard in your background. Makes the flowers look like they are up against some barnboard. :) Hugs-Erika

    Tag this one as my FAVORITE! It seems I have missed more than just when I was on vacation! Looks like the rest are just going to be peeks! But I had to tell you I am loving this piece, and am so going to be popping into the Closet, inspired by this! I hope all is back to normal at your home, and your hubby is back to his old self! Sending hugs over the big pond!
