Be Creative


  Okay maybe this week I can play. The roof is done and I quit my "maid" job. I made this tag while I was supposed to be making Birthday cards. Four of the women on my road (including me) have their birthdays in June.  A lot of Gemini's.   I am entering this in 3 places ; Grungy Monday we are to use distress inks; Simon Says Stamp and Show we are to make a tag ; and Just for Fun has the theme "With my little eye".
I used Tim's fabulous distress inks for my background and for stamping the words and leaves. I used archival black by Ranger for stamping the images. Face by Rubber Stampede, flowers by Stampin Up, Be, Swirl and Bee by See D. Wings and words are Tim Holtz. I used a gold gel pen to outline some of the images and it didn't scan the color it really is. C'est la vie.

Thank you for looking!
