I just love color so it was a great challenge to just use black and white today, being the theme of the Tag Tuesday challenge, which is here.
I haven't used a vintage image for quite a while so I started out with that idea. I have a collage stamp from Hero Arts with a lacy border on it - which I stamped on a piece of vellum, embossed and cut out. The little butterflies are HA digi and the gingham background was green which I changed to black and white in Picasa photoshop. Added a white chiffon bow and the tag was ready.
The second tag has alot more direct stamping on it. An image of a little girl in Paris, from Crafty Individuals and a couple of digi butterflies too. I added a little rub-on thinking it could be used to say goodbye to somebody leaving France after a holiday.
Two beautiful tags! I'm considering making another, as well. Yours are fabulous, Jacqueline! That looks like real lace edging on the first tag. Both tags are such wonderful pieces.
ReplyDeleteAgain your tag is so gorgerous. I special like the secound tag with all the layring of stamps.
ReplyDeletejust love these two tags..I think black and white is so atmospheric and captures the mood perfectly.
