Tag swap at That Craft Place

Good morning all! How are you? I hope you are okay - my run seems to have gone okay yesterday although I really did feel it at the time - I'll hopefully get another  one in today - I need to start building up the miles in a week!

Now today I want to show you a tag I made for the tag swap over at the natter and chatter group on face book for that craft place. The brief was a modern christmas tag - here's what i did.


As you can see I made two tags - I thought I would keep one ready for Christmas! The background was made with distress paints and water. Once dry I used the tree stamp from paperartsy and the christmas text stamp from Crafty individuals. Then I used some beaded mesh mesh from That craft place between the two stamps.


The decoration was added to the tree using liquid pearls and the mdf square was painted with gold dauber from ranger and when dry stamped on. Finally I added the ribbon at the top from that Craft place. 

I do hope you like my tag - and I hope Lisa whom I got a tag from liked it too!

Big Hugs and thanks for dropping by today!
