Shabby Chic Tag

Hello crafters, 
This fortnight, the Allsorts challenge optional theme, chosen by Sarah is "Ribbon or bow". As usual, you can also enter with an "anything goes" theme.


The base is a handmade paper which I stencilled with Distress Oxides and the STAMPlorations stencil Leaf Print, then stamped with the Crafty Individuals Crackle Background (CI-116).
The focal image is the Resting Woman by Rubber Dance stamped in a mix of Distress Oxide inks.
I added die-cuts for embellishments:
-  Doily #2 Pineapple (572792 by Prima )
-  Border threaded with ribbon (Tattered Lace )
-  Flowers from the Larger Than Life stamp and die set (Papertrey Ink)

Finally a small vellum ephemera from Arden Creative Studio and a wax seal heart finish the tag.

*************
Hop over to the Allsorts challenge blog to see all the DT inspiration and upload your projects. There are two prizes (pictured below) of A5 stamp set, stencil and ribbons and £10 digital download from Polkadoodles for a lucky winner!


Thanks for coming by,

  11. This is beautiful. It looks so delicate and fragile - like it's been packed away safely for years. Love how you added the ribbon xxx
