Hello Tag

I love to make tags.  I love them by themselves and I love to stick them on cards too.  Once upon a time I mused that it was too bad that there wasn't a challenge out there in this crafty blogland that was all about tags.  Well the stamping godmother has waived her magic fairy dust because there's a brand new challenge on the block called Tag You're It and, you guessed it, it's all about tags!  They're having a bit of a mini challenge to start things off so I thought I'd play along.


The colors on my tag come from the pretty challenge at Color Throwdown.  I did some sponging after I embossed the leafy image with clear embossing powder.  I stamped a few other images to create some texture then added the sentiment, which fits the Hello challenge at Friday Mashup.  


Thanks for stopping by!

Very beautiful tag and congratulations on being the featured stamper! Also, absolutely off subject but is that a vintage palm hair brush that is holding your card? I have tried, unsuccessfully I might add, to figure out and subsequently purchase something of the sort and have come up empty handed. Help? I would be forever indebted to you!
