Rosette Tag .....

Here is a tag made for a Monthly swap over at the UK Stampers Forum Facebook Group.....

I started with a white card base and coloured this with Worn Lipstick Distress Ink by applying the ink from the pad to a glass mat and spraying with water them smooshing in layers on the tag and drying in between smooshes to build up the colour.

I then used a Tim Holtz (Sizzix) rosette die to make the rosette from some patterned paper edged with violet Veramagic ink.  I also die-cut a couple of seed head dies in more white card.  These were coloured with more Worn Lipstick DI and layered with brown Memento and violet Versamagic inks before adding some Stickles glitter glue.

I used the same inks, along with Archival black on various stamps to add the design.  The word 'Shine' was stamped in magenta Memento ink with a Paperartsy stamp.

I assembled the tag and finished with a length of thin velvet ribbon attached with coloured staples.

The whole tag was edged with more violet Versamagic ink to finish.

Loved the colours together !  If you fancy joining in the Swap then click HERE to join the Forum .... it's free !
