I was so disappointed that I missed playing along with the first Tag You're It challenge that I was determined to play along with the second. The inspiration tag had a wonderful sponged background so that's where I started with my interpretation.
I did a little emboss resist by stamping the floral images with some Versamark and heat embossing it in clear. Then using the Just Us Girls challenge colors I sponged shades of blue and green with Distress Ink. I added a sentiment (I'm obsessed with these label sentiments) and a die cut and I was done (although to be fair I added an eyelet, some black seam binding ribbon and a bit of baker's twine).
Thanks for stopping by!

Lovely, soft colors with the black sentiment. The label and the word die are a fantastic combination - that Altenew label set is definitely going to make it into my shopping cart after seeing your tag.
