Ok, another day of 'not my favorite tag.' I almost didn't post it, but I did want to share a couple ideas that I used. I cut the ornament shape (you can find the template here) out of an old cereal box. I didn't have the silver crackle paint, but I did have an idea! I used Vintage Linen crackle paint first and then painted over it with silver craft paint. Woo hoo! Worked pretty dang well. The background stamps are both from Oxford Impressions. The gorgeous holly trim is from RockCandy Studios. My embossing looks much better in real life - the scanner just doesn't capture it well.

have to admit, this was my least favourite of tim's tags so far. not to say I didn't like it, just wasn't quite up to his usual genius. I love how you interpreted it.
ReplyDeleteGorgeously rich colour and texture. A very beautiful tag.
