I was chugging along so well with Tim's tags, until Day 12. It fell on a Saturday and I had a party to go to. Well, after that it was just one thing after another and I didn't get a chance to work on this until Christmas was completely over! I'm so glad I did it though - the Grungepaper roses are a little challenging, but lots of fun. You can tell I was challenged...there is only one rose! I cheated on the second one and just covered the Grungepaper with some vintage French paper and called it good. I do love the look of the sanded edges on that one! I also added a little faux metal flower that I made using the technique I posted
here.
For my background I used the Metallic Pop technique from the latest
Technique Junkie newsletter. I finished it with ribbon from
RockCandy Studios.
I also wanted to show you how I store my Mini Misters. I found this flower frog at an estate sale a couple years ago. I had it sitting on my table just because it looks so cool. One day I had my misters out and..........
It's probably a good thing that I don't have too many. I don't think it would be practical if I had more than a few. I do love how it looks for my small collection.
I would like to wish you all a happy, healthy New Year. I hope your worries are few and your inspired, art-filled days are many!
This tag is fabulous!! I love your vintage paper flower. This background is gorgeous too. Best wishes for a happy, healthy and creative new year!
ReplyDeleteWow! That background is fab, I'll have to check out TJNL, I must have skipped that one. Your rose is gorgeous, and the other one...oh..My..Gosh....too cool. Looks just great with everything else. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on finishing all your tags! I was in the same boat this year except I didn't get ANY stamping done! Not the tags, not even my Christmas cards! Love how all your tags came out though. Beautiful work.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely fabulous, Shelly! It's so rich and beautiful! I love the 'text' rose, too. Happy New Year, friend-with-Oregon-connections! :=)

ReplyDeleteI am getting caught on blogs and I just read this post. I am so sorry that I broke your mojo on the tags with that little party I threw:D I can't believe that you are still using regular lights bulbs and not compact floursent for your thoughs:D Great tag and thanks for the mister tip. I have several frogs and have them in a drawer until I need them for flowers, not any more:D
