Color Dare 87 Tag

I'm still experimenting with ideas for my cookie swap at work next week.  I think by the time I'm done, I will have settled on nothing and everyone will get one of my test samples.  I'm actually ok with that and I hope the recipients will be too!

So today I made a tag using the colors over at the Color Dare blog.  The challenge was to use Chocolate Chip, Perfect Plum, and Concord Crush.  The colors are fabulous and the cards made by the design team were very inspiring and I had high hopes that I could make something really nice.

My plan is to stick this on the front of a lunch bag and probably pretty up the lunch bag with some ribbon or such.  I've been experimenting with the bag and I've got some cute ideas there too!  I don't think you can tell by the picture, but I tried to jazz up the snowflakes by covering them in dazzling diamonds, but all that sparkly goodness doesn't show up on the photo.  I've got to say this is my least favorite of my lunch bag embellishments so far, but I really like the color combo, so I'm sticking with it!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have time to stamp today!
